Sweaty workouts sweeping Hong Kong
With a burgeoning interest in getting healthy, people in the city are forking out HK$2,000 or more each month for amped-up workouts

JUST down the road from Hong Kong's popular night clubs dragon-i and Tazmania Ballroom, another venue opened last year with the same booming music and strobe lights. Here, clients sweat in lycra rather than designer clothes.
The latest trend sweeping Hong Kong isn't leather handbags or frozen yoghurt: it's intense fitness. After years of limited options, people in Asia's financial capital can now pay HK$2,000 (S$348) a month or more for workouts with an edge, amping up the sweat factor.
