Training in China

[Bellator]

I may have to move to China for work. Does anyone know how accepted bodybuilding is there and what are the steroid laws there?

You don't post very much do you?

Illegal without rx. I live in Shanghai, many guys at my gym use.

What city are you moving to?

In many of the gyms over here, people don't put their weights back. Finished using a pair of dumbbells? Leave one dumbbell ten feet behind you, the other five feet to the right of you, and walk away. Done using plates on an Olympic bar? Take 'em off and drop 'em to the floor.

There are bodybuilding comps, usually they're free to attend. The last one I went to, not only did they have both men and women's bodybuilding, but they also had like some fashion show shit thrown in there, guys strutting across the stage in designer clothes. Competitively, powerlifting is non-existent.

No I don't post much but I'm on here a lot. This site always seems to have the most thorough answers to questions.

Anyway..we're filming in Beijing mostly. But we'll be there for about 9 months.

That sucks about the gyms. Hopefully, I'll find a good one to go to.

No point and no flame,...I just noticed that after five years, his post count was only 18 when this thread was started. It seemed unusual, so I made the comment. Are you guys OK with that, were/are you offended, or what?

Yo, I see you're in JP; what is bb / gear use like there? Do many in the military use?

I was training a lot in HK... there are a lot of GYMS, just prices sometimes are too high, about 50-60$ per month... for middle level GYM... And no professional BB at all...=(

gears in china are dirt cheap, when i went there for vacation, got a hookup from a native because i speak the language. i paid $20RMB like $3 USD for a bottle of test

Diesel, can you PM or post how to say gear, test, etc. in chinese? Perhaps use a pinyin with tones. So "ni hao" could be "ni3 hao3" for pronounciation purposes.

I believe growth hormone is ji(1) su(4), but I might be wrong about that. bodybuilding is jian(4) mei(3). I just wanted to get a couple in there, I'll let Diesel take care of the rest

test = xiong xing ji su

growth = ren lai seng zong ji su

gear = lei gu chen
