🌍

문화적 배경

In Spain, 'estar en forma' is often linked to the Mediterranean diet and outdoor activities like hiking (senderismo). In Buenos Aires, there is a high density of gyms and a strong culture of 'verano' (summer) preparation where being 'en forma' is a major topic in November/December. While 'estar en forma' is used, you will also hear 'estar bien trabajado' (to be well-worked) for someone who is very fit from the gym.

💡

The 'Estar' Rule
