From a warehouse with a few bar bells at the Sydney Olympics, the United States team’s preparations have come a long way. The team is making its final preparations at a new training center at a Beijing university.

“Their students walk by and they’ve never been allowed in this building. All of a sudden a bunch of stinking Americans have shown up and they are occupying the space,” said Steve Roush, chief of sport performance for the USOC.

Facilities include: “a 50-meter pool, three gymnasiums, indoor batting cages for baseball, a boxing ring, a plush weightroom, a wrestling room equipped with a sauna, strips for fencing and modern pentathlon, volleyball courts, pingpong tables, mats for martial arts—and a perfectly manicured soccer field.”

“This is unbelievable, beautiful—honestly,” said Tony Azevedo, captain of the men’s water polo team, straining under leg and chest exercises Wednesday in the university’s weightroom. “I honestly didn’t expect anything like this. It’s just amazing.”
