New gym provides green lifestyle and vegan delicacies
On Friday night, a new gym, Mode-L, opened at the Wangjing district in Beijing. At the opening ceremony, guests enjoyed the vegan kebabs and sushi freshly made by the cooks in the gym's cafe.
"I want to help people lead a new lifestyle, and let exercise become a natural part of their life," said Li Wen, 32, who also runs a bar near the gym.
As a former professional soccer player, Li pays much attention to physical exercises. After retirement, he enrolled at Communication University of China and began studying news and media.
Thanks to his love of physical activities, Li still looks fit. Two years ago, he and his wife brought two healthy twin sons to the world.
He opened the cafe so that those who use the gym during their lunch break don't waste their time looking for a place to eat and take a shower. The private shower rooms in the gym are designed to protect its members' privacy. There is also a laundry room.
In other words, he tries to provide a "one-stop service".
