Kids 50 years ago naturally had better bodies. Why?

>>42069625

Wow physical exercise can build muscle. Good job you literal tard

>no vidya
>no high fructose corn syrup
>no sedentary lifestyles

Kids 50 years ago were playing ball outside and did shit like foot races for fun.

Kids nowadays sit like blobs in their chair and text Mom to bring home stuffed-crust pizza with soda.

>>42069653
except they didn't lift any weights, they're like 15 years old, and bigger than most people on here. Explain that.

Current body perception is so messed up. If you met these kids you would probably laugh at them for being manlets and only weighing 150lbs then hand them a gallon of milk and a bucket of oats and tell them to not stop eating until they are 200lbs.

Watch the videos you posted, ask yourself if kids today do this shit, and then write a reply about how retarded you are

>>42069715
I don't see any weight lifting. It's all body weight. You guys rag on calisthenics all the time. Also I'm not comparing to kids today, I'm comparing to you guys here.

>>42069663

They're climbing a wall with just their arms. You're only seeing the after, I promise they practiced this for a few months.

>>42069731
no one is doing deadlifts 4 times their weight, or squatting, or benching. explain this shit.

>>42069731
>I'm trying to bait a bodyweight v. weight training argument

You should've been more clear. Anyway, >>42069653 already answered your question. Exercise builds muscle. Weight training is the best exercise if optimal muscle building is your goal. Other forms of exercise will build muscle but are better for other things and fitness in general. QED

1. They are Chads. These are propaganda videos and of course only those who do well with athletics are filmed. Skelly nerds existed before too

2. They are not by any means big, they look to be in the range of 150-180lbs (guessing at an average height of 6ft). They all have the typical athletic build that a healthy young male will get with regular physical activity like the calisthenics in the videos and a non shit diet

3. Get your lifts and bodyweight into decently respectable numbers and you will be able to do every single exercise they are doing. Strength is not one dimensional

Chemical castration, poor diet, sedentary lifestyle and ethnic browning

>>42069625
They're not really big, they're just lean.
Most of them probably had to work on a farm since they were little kids.
They had no vidya and porn and TV, they were always outside and moving.
They had much a better diet than we have today. Maybe not a lot (also why they're lean and not big), but mostly fresh, whole, healthy food. Nothing processed, nothing high in sugar (except for special occasions), not afraid of dietary fats, not afraid of carbs, not afraid of meat, eggs and dairy.
Their parents were probably also fitter than ours are, epigenetics are a thing.
And they had higher testosterone levels, because of their lifestyle.

>>42069625

ITS BECAUSE THEY PLAYED SPORTS in high school.

>>42069625

OP, those are propaganda videos. They handpicked the 1% of extremely athletic youths and then trained them harder, just to make this video.

The average kid in the mid-twentieth century was either skinnyfat or DYEL if an athlete.

>>42069625
This is like watching capeshit and wondering why real armies don't have Iron Men.

>>42069625
Their not big, they look like every farm boy from the days of manual labor.

Most of them were in boy scouts or after school programs gutted by leftists and rightists respectively

Most of them had stay at home moms who make real food with real ingredients, things gutted by the left and right respectively

Most of them had girlfriends and a chance to make money at their age, gutted by the left and the right respectively

See where this is going?

>>42070124
You talk about things that the right wants to preserve (actual right leaning people, not neo-con politicians) and the left wanted to and have succeeded in abolishing (not just the politicians, but regular everyday people who want to crush the cis/het/white/ patriarchy). Yet you blame both the left and right equally for it.

>>42069625
>formal weight training
as opposed to? Moonlighting?

>>42070302
Conflation of neoconservative values with genuine right wing politics is a modern scourge. Protecting culture versus protecting a 401k.

>>42070124
>boy scouts or after school programs gutted by leftists and rightists respectively

Do you have any proof that leftists "gutted" boy scouts?

>>42069731
What a waste of good discussion material, fuck off with your bullshit OP.

Calisthenics is great but it has it's limits, so does weight based training though. As everyone has pointed out it's no surprise that exercise and nutrition build muscle and strength, it's by no means magical and the contrast is aptly summarized in the difference of societal factors.

My high school was highly athletic with multiple athletic programs with multiple people running 100m sub 11 seconds with half the rugby squad deadlifting 200kg+. Even as a non athlete playing vidya all the time I hit 3plate 1rm bench in senior year.

Feats which none of those kiddos could reach. The bar on average is just set really fucking low these days.

>>42069820
this is the truth.

>>42070365
Other than legal pressure to accept trannys as 'boys' and gay men as scout leaders thus causing membership numbers to tumble?

>>42070505
But it's not the government's fault that people left an organization out of their own bigotry after equality was achieved.

None of that is true

>>42070559
Lol. Check your own bigotry.

Food was healthier, physical education couldn't be avoided so easy, no vidya, less pollution of each races gene pool so everyone was at peak performance, no fat acceptance, etc.

>>42069625
Kids back then were far more active and their athletic programs weren't sissified. If you were a fat fuck that didn't do shit you got an F.

Men back then lived more active lifestyles, ate far better food, and had much high natural test levels as a result (look it up).

People these days live sedentary lifestyles and ate garbage like McDonald's all day, so of course they look like shit. However, if you look at people who do workout and eat well, they're far better than the best they had to offer 50 years go.

>>42070124
There's a lot of truth to this. It's the same reason why hardly any kids can draw, play an instrument, name an author, etc. As much as humanities are a meme, they really did make people well rounded in the past. PE involved cardio and weights, art involved painting and studying artists, meanwhile we barely have this at the college level.
Oh don't forget that kids can't fail anymore so those classes became what they are today.

>>42070578
Do Americlaps not have similar sport focused high schools? Have you never seen what kids under 18 playing for future multi million dollar contracts does?

Here's a popular Rugby League Highschool in Australia.

Added sugar is literally the devil

boy scouts of america still exist
