It is very easy to get into a healthy life style in GuangZhou for the following reasons:
1: The weather in GuangZhou is very warm. One can enjoy outdoor sports even in winter
2: Local people are very much into workout.

The basketball courts are surprisingly affordable for 5RMB at night or 3RMB during the day time. The swimming pool is an international standard pool. The entrance cost is 30RMB.

Chinese fast food between 6-10 RMB/meal.
The cost of eat out is so low and the choices are so many. Many Chinese office worker eats out every day.
I came to Guangzhou 2 month ago and I have not cooked once. I eat breakfast, lunch and dinner in restaurants every day. I call it outsourced chicken.
Chinese are world class in many things, among them two stand out above everything else: 1st: cooking,
2nd: mass production.
One can find Chinese food in every part of the world. Chinese production line is one of the most efficient systems in the world which produces majority of the items that the world uses everyday. With the combination of cooking and mass production skills, you have a country that offers extremely efficient and good public canteen that is suitable for every occasion.
I walk to work every morning. On the way to work, there are at least two food stands that I can buy milk and Chinese dumplings for breakfast. I usually grab a box of milk and bread or a box of Chinese dumplings. The cost is 5 RMB. I usually have lunch in the office. A few local restaurants deliver the box lunch everyday.
