A gym coach in Shenyang, Liaoning Province has launched a secret sideline – by renting himself out as a punching bag for stressed women.
But Lin Xiao said he has not told his family about his new sideline.
He told the Liaoshen Evening Post, "It fits in well with my day job. I needed more sparring partners anyway. By being a punchbag for women, I can make some money and also practice my self-defense skills and work on my fitness at the same time."
Lin charges 100 yuan ($15) for 30 minutes and says he has already had two customers since launching his new business.
"The first woman was about 25-years-old. She paid for half an hour but soon got tired and spent the rest of her time just chatting to me," he said.
"The second customer also only lasted for a few minutes but they both looked much happier afterwards. It does people good to let off some steam."
