how did people in the ancient times workout?

[STEELxBALLS]

because men back then weren't pussies

oooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[atramell]

Tae-Bo

[The-BeAsT]

Back in ancient times women's labias were actually sealed shut. Men had to work on them for years and years before they would open up. This took a great amount of energy and time, so naturally the men got bigger.

[shane3105]

They would lift really heavy rocks, almost in a deadlift of clean n jerk method. This is also how bodybuilding came about.

[Trigalight]

Well they didn't have cars and machines to do things for them so they naturally were more active I guess.

[rjmwx81]

Crossfit.

[FapTech]

they swam to get that leaned and toned physique

[randomforumname]

Look up Gymnasium.

They would attend a Gymasium, which was like gold's gym except with philosophy in addition to the lifting and running, and they would use free weights that looked like the kettle balls which are still in use today.

Ancient historian brah checking in.

[HenchBrah]

the first fitness first franchise gym club opened around the same time the roman empire started up



coincidence? I think not brahs

[Kharig]

dat dere amarna period aesthetics

[Fruity Snacks]

wrestling, lifting heavy ****, walking/running everywhere, working in the field, ect
really active lifestyles

btw op you cant be serious.
edit: also you needed superior genetics to survive back then, there wasn't the same medicine and hospitals ect if you were sick as a baby or as a child.

[Meagzz]

Lol at thinking they had the nutrition to get those physiques. They are sculpted representations of the perfect male form, it doesn't mean the average person had that body. In fact, it would be far from it. Do you know what the average rations for a soldier were in 300BC? I imagine it didn't include a lot of protein.

[BigDawg69]

1. Only the most genetically gifted survived through childhood
2. Test levels were much higher because of no plastic and birth control in our water

[BossMadOne]

Back then they just lived day to day and it required them to be strong and eating was clean....

[magog704]

[Impregnator]

[Papirriki]

they lived. srs, their lifes were simply more active. they didnt actually look like that though, those sculptures are very exaggerated

[Mehilove]

creatine, not even once upon a time.

[ToXin]

Didn't know they had creatine back then

[ForeverYoung94]

and how do u think 'must not fap' was created?

[Igmann]

They went to war

[TheDraugr]

More active lifestyle, weight training, eating tons of meat and vegetables and hardly any grains, etc.

When bows became common in England (1000's AD), the draw on a bow would be anywhere from 90-180lbs, and they had to draw that bow fast to shoot their arrows efficiently. The average was 140lbs draw. Modern recurve bows have somewhere between 30-45lb draw, compound bows are usually around 50lbs. Being an archer was the most common thing in the military at the time.

Therefore, the average person was 2-4 times stronger than people now.

Watch Spartacus : Blood and Sand.

[BOOM BP]

they didn't eat like ****. as we all learned the hard way, diet is most important. also i know a lot of other sculptures from this era were exaggerated so I wouldn't be surprised if they added a few lbs. of stone here and there.

Think about how much exercise we'd get today if it were legal to have sex with kids.
