"For example, there is a sports stadium of over 2,000 square meters in Huilong village in the city of Ningbo. That contains a badminton court, a volleyball court, a yoga room and a swimming pool. The local villagers experience the same quality of sports life as in the big cities."

In the first half of 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic forced a hiatus of fitness activities in Zhejiang.

However, despite people staying at home to avoid being infected, their desire to enjoy sports was not diminished, with the Zhejiang sports bureau organizing online challenges to encourage home workouts.
