It is 7.30 on an Autumn Monday morning in Taipei and Huang Tien-yin, a PR manager with a political consultancy in the nation’s capital, is struggling to finish a 90-minute workout. Sweat streams down his brow as he squeezes out another set of 30 crunches on an abdominal bench in the musty, dimly-lit basement of World Gym Ximen, his goal of 200 nearly reached.
“There is no way I can hit the showers without finishing my ab work,” Huang said Oct. 24 between gulps of strawberry protein powder from an oversized water bottle. “If I want to look totally buffed in my bespoke Ermenegildo Zegna suits, I simply must peel another two inches off my waistline.”
Huang, 30, may sound like an upmarket cast member from hit MTV reality show “Jersey Shore,” but is in fact a self-professed metrosexual with no qualms admitting that his No.1 goal in life is to look his very best at all times while sporting the latest fashions and eye-catching accessories.
