Decades strong: Chinese bodybuilders pump iron at old Beijing gym

Each afternoon without fail, a handful of men mostly in their 60s gather at an old bicycle shed in southwest Beijing, clad in sweatshirts and track pants and ready to pump iron.

Shit, I'm never gonna go to China but I'd still like to buy a membership just to help them keep the place open.

I saw something eerily similar but it was someplace in Russia. Pretty cool all in all.

Cool stuff -- some of us older guy are getting to that point soon, and I don't plan on quitting lifting. Thouhg I only lift in track pants when it's winter and the gym is colder. Deadlifts wreck the shins, so a new pair every year :-D
