Just came back from Decathlon, too bad they didn’t have any so I went over to Watsons to get some temporary protein powder.
I’m sure it’s not the best like hzwerks discribed, but better than nothing I guess. With a price of just under 300 kuai for 400gr it’s definately overpriced like you said.
I’m not a bodybuilder myself, just been lifting weights and watching my food for about 6 years now. Don’t use a nutrition schedule or anything like that, it’s just a hobby to balance out the weekend beers :).
Keep us updated about your findings!
Charlie suggested maybe Watsons, have u been there?
Whey protein is basically all I need for now, where did u see it?
Thanks!
Btw send me a pm please when you’re about to order, most likely I’ll need some stuff too, so we can split the shipping costs (if you’re ok with that). Although I think it could take about a month to deliver.
Oh and a must-have is this little “taxi-book”. It’s this neat small book made by Maxxelli with hundreds of places written in both Chinese and English. It covers restaurants, shopping, sports, nightlife, etc… You can just show the cabdriver where you want to go and he’ll know where to drive.
You can read about it here: http://maxxelli-blog.com/2010/04/taxi-book-your-destination-our-drive/
I’ve been in Chengdu for almost a week now and I havent’t visited a lot of places, but I do know there’s a decent WiFi connection over at Peters Tex Mex Grill. The password is “peter”. It’s a good place where the waitresses speak a little bit of English. You can eat all sorts of European food and meet European people.
Should come in handy for the first few days visiting Chengdu if you have no clue on what to eat or how to speak Chinese.
