Ancient humans were certainly not built like modern day bodybuilders. They were definitely fit but more in a running way rather than a bodybuilding/powerlifting way. An ancient human living a hunter gathering lifestyle wouldn’t be able to maintain the bodies that bodybuilders today do. Hunter gathers ran extremely far distances and burnt an extraordinary amount of calories just to catch prey, they were not lifting heavy like this video would lead you to believe. Chimps are jacked because they aren’t the bipedal apex predators that we are. They climb trees all day, swing from branches, and have to protect their young from other chimps. Another huge difference between human and chimp anatomy is the amount of motor neurons controlling the muscles. Humans have a far larger amount which allows us to perform far more delicate tasks whereas chimps have far less motor neurons leading to muscle use being far more powerful in comparison to what is needed. This leads to constant overuse of muscles and thus a muscular physique is obtained.

Not only were their bones thicker, they were warped under strain from their muscles. Not malnutrition, the muscles were just that ridiculous.

[JandreiMharl]

Humans before: muscular
Humans now: Mcdonalds

[mr.google]

Human went from monster to a tiktoker..

[kingz]

We basically traded out strength for intelligence. The fact that you only need to press a trigger to kill massive bears made us lazy in terms of strength.

[Kioki-xp]

Incorrect. When they studied ancient human bodies which they discovered were actually of varying sizes depending on the locations with smaller life-spans when compared to humans. The content in this video is false.

[kalebtittle]

No way an ancient human could eat enough calories for that

[gurpreetbajwa]

Bruh this video gave me an Aneurysm. I'm studying to become an Archaeologist/Paleontologist and legit nothing you've said is true. Food scarcity back then was insane so primitive man would be considerably smaller than modern man. Not to mention humans are some of the best long distance runner which how game was killed. No fucking Cave man was fighting Tigers with his bare hands

[ronniecox]

A lot are still freaks of nature today.

[Aristocratic]

As a person who works out heavy for the past 10yrs I know this can’t be true. Do you know how much protein you have to consume per gram x body weight to just sustain a muscular frame like a body builder? Ancient m3n didn’t have protein available as often. They were Hunter and gatherers. Not to mention I doubt the6 would know the specific exercises needed to build muscle.

"ancient humans were essentially wild animals"

We are still wild animals on a scientific perspective (biology). On most humans psychological perspective any undomesticated animal from the wild is a wild animals when, in reality, humans are also animals that have dominated other animals and created civilization.

My mentioning about the "human psychological perspective" is because not everyone agrees or knows that humans are also part of the animal kingdom and scientifically broken down in terms of describing a human animal (not insulting, mentioning human biologically)

Correction: modern humans domesticated themselves (self-domestication) 300, 000 years ago due to evolution. Ancient humans were wild animals not modern humans.

We know how they were built from skeletal remains. Anthropologists and anatomists and physiologists have reconstructed them.
Before farming some were huge and tall due to high protein diets and active lifestyle.

[YR]

Prehistoric humans were built like modern matharon/long distance runners. Not like jacked bodybuilders.
Which is more impressive for me, because i love running

[TheTinMan]

People are actually stronger nowadays than ancient humans. We literally have foods and gyms to literally make us stronger than all of our ancestors, you just have to believe in yourself.

[joelsalvatore]

I don't believe they have more muscle mass than we do now. When hunting animals, you need quickness and running endurance rather than muscle mass. They never hunted animals by wrestling.

[MachineThatCreates]

If you have to hunt and fight to survive you're going to be buff. No coke, pizza or burgers back then folks.

[dinarusso]

They would be physically superior because of how strong they were from physical activity and they ate all natural foods, not processed crap we have today

[ronaldcole]

Modern humans are essentially wild animals too.

[uthpalachandrarathna]

Ancient humans aren't weak (noone thinks that), but I don't think they look this buff either. Possibly built more like athletes because they walk a lot and run fast. Lean, strong legs and torso. Not very tall, bcz research shows that humans are taller in percent time due to selective breeding and diet. High testosterone may have used for increased energy, not for body building.

[boytoyowo]

And the reason we don't need that is because we're better at combat then we've ever been we have guns and weapons that could eliminate every life on the planet.
