The reporter saw that a 15-metre-long T-shaped stage was created for the event, with the finalists walking the catwalk in a physical show. Zhang Jian, the national bodybuilding champion and international bodybuilding judge, was invited to be the head judge for the event. Notably, 80-year-old Mr. Li Qisheng, one of the founders of bodybuilding in Chongqing, was also on hand to cheer on the event. The audience could not help but exclaim after seeing Li Qisheng, “He has an 80-year-old body with the looks of a 50-year-old and the healthy mind of a 30-year-old!”

Li Qisheng said that the event will not only enable Chongqing bodybuilders to fulfill their dreams at home, but also allow more young people to participate and progress together to promote the development of the bodybuilding industry. (Translated by Wang Huixin, Fathom Language Limited)
