>yfw you realize physical improvement, strength, as a quality of manly virtue (vir meaning man in Latin) is the closest we can come in the modern era to the masculine and heroic struggle of antiquity

You are lifting weights in an air-conditioned gym, eating good food and sleeping under a roof every night. Please explain to me how this makes you a warrior or on par with a Roman centurion or a Greek hoplite.

It doesn't that's why he said:
>is the closest we can come
I think wrestling/martial art truly the last place of masculinity in our culture. Body building and vanity are just as degenerate as makeup on a man

The closest you could come to being a man from Antiquity is to join the military, get deployed, survive and live to tell the tale. That's what men from Antiquity were - soldiers and conscripts.
Fucking pleb doesn't even know classics. Anyone who studied Latin for about a day would know virtue comes from the Latin virtus, not vir. And the heroic definition of masculinity a la virtus does not mean anything to the modern English understandings we have. If anything, you should have quoted Mens Sana in corpore Sano, but with your shitty Google understanding of Latin you old have thought mens have something to do with the English word men.
In brevita, neces ipsum.

There will be ample chances for heroism during the European civil war.

wrong vir means power of force and can also be translated as "men" in an equivalent to military power/force

>implying ancient greek athletes didnt have good food and a roof

Back then the battles were harder and had a purpose, I don't want to end on a wheelchair to please some incompetent cunts.
Lifting and training to attain glorious aryan aesthetics is the only reason to lift and train.

wrong, vis is power and vir is a man (as real man, not just as grown male)
>>38459615
I really appreciate this
