A doctor in central China has caused astonishment by losing 25kg in just 42 days before winning a slew of honours in a bodybuilding competition.
Wu Tiangen, 31, was the only doctor to take part in the Tianrui Cup Fitness and Bodybuilding Match held in southern Guangdong province in January.
Wu, who is 182cm tall and weighs in at 73.5kg, won the champion titles in the newcomer and fit models groups as well as the most popular participant, according to the contest organiser Tianrui Culture, the People’s Daily reported.
Wu is a surgeon at the Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University in central Hubei province.
He said bodybuilding was part of his job because he mainly deals with obese patients and helps them lose weight through surgery.
