Totally agree I'm not saying obese people can't be strong, I'm saying they can't be athletic. Most people define athletic ability as the ability to accelerate your body. That's also why I made the clarification of big vs. obese, obviously you can have a BMI over 30 with muscle, but I'm referring specifically to the ones where that's not the case. Wont find me running, but you wouldn't land a punch, gotta float like a butterfly 😂
I mean…there’s a point where trying is so hard it’s unhealthy in itself lol. And some conditions you objectively need that extra fat lol. Not saying like 600 lbs is necessary lol, but yanno, people can defo be chubby and healthy imo. My mom struggles bc of menopause and she’s been in a calorie deficit for the majority of 5 years. At some point, you gotta eat.
I totally disagree. Being athletic is about hand eye coordination. The word you're looking for is quick. "Most people define athletic ability as the ability to accelerate your body" is simply not true. Go back to english class. My punches would land lol you think I'm 8ft tall and move in slow motion? Why would I need to punch you? I'm going for a concrete slam 10/10 since I'm not trained and have 100lbs on you
