Odd Topic of the day Thread. Muscles on Statues of Roman soldiers and other Greek Gods.

As I’m a workout fanatic, I always found old statues of leaders many moons ago having physiques that men today would even enjoy having.
What gives? Were these depictions accurate? Or were they enhanced to make them even larger that life so they could be remembered?
We know we have evolved as humans over the last 500 - 2000 years significantly so how could these men have been built like men in muscle fitness magazines without the diet and exercise programs we have today?
That’s without even touching on PEDs and everything men use today for muscle growth?
Or were these men just complete Genetic freaks(it happens), and because of their appearances a lot of times pushed into leadership roles, because other men were just every day Joes.
Weird topic I know but I guess that’s my once a month thinking of the Romans I’ll tell my SO about. Ha

Have we really though?
Also as previously noted, this thread is gayer than aids

While you're chilling in the AC, typing away on your computer and watching your testosterone drop, they were out there hauling cows and shite, wooing hot Greek goddesses, and keeping their testosterone levels through the roof.

True story... All of the Greek statues have small weiners because people with big ones were considered stupid at the time.

They didn’t have high fructose corn syrup and PlayStation.

Odd thing to think about on a Sunday morning.
Going to say that 0 processed food and you worked for everything is a factor

That’s another thing that was interesting.
Men didn’t pride themselves on their cock sizes the way men do now.
It was what God gave you I guess.

You are right, I hate being in shape and looking good.
Women hate it.
