One website's changes,
one community's passion.
From bodybuilding forums at the turn of the century to training and AI creativity today.
The pages changed; the passion found new expression.
First the passion,
then the website.
By the old site's own account, Brothers Bodybuilding began with a group of bodybuilding enthusiasts in Suzhou. Taking the club online was a way to let more people discover the sport and share experience.
The homepage archived in 2003 states the site was founded on 9 February 2000. On 15 February 2003, musclecn.com was registered; the May 2003 snapshot already labels the site v2.0.
That page still listed an earlier address and already had a "personal works" section. Today we keep sharing training knowledge, and use AI to explore imagery and creative work, giving this passion more ways to be expressed.

A shared passion, put online.
With its own domain registered, the club already had a home for content and discussion: news, training, nutrition and a forum where like-minded people found each other.
This page keeps the dense table layout, category navigation and site polls of an early website, and records that the site was founded on 2000-02-09.
