I know it's just a fascist bullshit, but how do these guys not know that toned muscles are due to diet and planned exercise routines, not something inherent to health or whatever. I'm guessing almost no one looked like that for the entirety of pre-modern human history.

        I thought farmboy or manual labor strength was a thing just harder to measure.

          manual labor is still some exercise and done regularly, so they're going to be physically stronger than office workers who live a sedentary lifestyle.

          an athlete who works out according to regimens is going to out match them though because they're doing it with the intent to maximise muscle gain rather than do the job

      Yeah this post was 100% made by some reactionary IT dork who has never worked more than a summer of physical labour. You don't get a Herculean figure from manual labour jobs, infact you get a really bizarre build depending on what you do. My job requires a lot of squat lifting and core strength, virtually no arm activity, and a high calorie diet; the end result is the default body type of string bean arms, a large but muscular gut (gut not abs), and well developed glutes with tiny calves. It's like if you put an incredible ass on a Mr Potato Head
