But what about average person, not a professional athlete? In past people suffered from malnourishment, but today they suffer from obesity.

We also know that testosterone levels (which are connected with muscle mass, recovery etc.) are lower today than even few decades back.

It definitely doesn’t hold true for the average person, I was only thinking of the fittest today.

I’m not sure what it means if we want the average person to be fitter, it seems like we’d have to reinstitute manual labour if that was the goal.

Which is maybe a good analogy for not using AI in the classroom and forcing kids to use their minds
