Humans literally evolved to run.

Humans literally didnt evolve to run
We descend from climber species that never ran
how many sprinting apes do you see in nature?

Yes I am

>your body adapted perfectly to running by completely coincidence!
This is what happens to human feet when they climb like other apes btw
Human feet are built for running
>>
>>76657217
>adaped perfectly to running
Adapted how? Human feet are soft and have tons of nerve endings. These are climbers traits, running species have hooves or padded paws.
>>
>>76657235
Because millions of years ago they were feet used for climbing before they became feet used for running. But fact of the matter is that human feet are uniquely efficient for running compared to any other ape.

>The effect of toe length on peak digital flexor forces, impulses and work outputs was evaluated during barefoot walking and running using partial correlations and multiple regression analysis, controlling for the effects of body mass,whole-foot and phalangeal contact times and toe-out angle. Our results suggest that there is no significant increase in digital flexor output associated with longer toes in walking. In running, however, multiple regression analyses based on the sample suggest that increasing average relative toe length by as little as 20% doubles peak digital flexor impulses and mechanical work,probably also increasing the metabolic cost of generating these forces. The increased mechanical cost associated with long toes in running suggests that modern human forefoot proportions might have been selected for in the context of the evolution of endurance running.

Also if you run barefoot, actually barefoot, your feet will not be soft and sensitive for very long.

Name 5 land animals bigger than a rat humans can outrun in a 100m dash
>>
>>76657283
don't argue with this troll
>>
>>76657283
Why would I do that when humans evolved for endurance running over long distances and not short dashes? Sprinting is simply a secondary, situational advantage.

Tortoise, armadillo, anteater, sloth, and wombat probably

Maybe your bloodline stopped evolving at the persistance hunter stage. My bloodline evolved past that to use tools, domesticate animals and do agriculture.
>>
>>76657312
Yove never domesticated any animals or have done any agriculture

I milked your mom

>>76657332
correct, but my ancestors did do that stuff, and my familys genes have not mutated since then. you still have caveman hunter genes which is why you can run far but you cant digest milk

aquatic and tree animals respectively, not land crawlers

>persistance hunter
dumbest myth to ever exist, its actually hilarious that some niggas genuinely believe humans used to hunt by engaging in attrition war with animals instead of using our retardedly superior intellect to fashion traps and weapons
>>
>>76657639
nah bro in places with resource scarcity men used to burn thousands of calories just by running to hunt down a single pray, it's just common sense
>>
>>76657201
We evolved to run marathons, think a lot, use tools, and die before 40.
>>
>>76656067
5k is the most any man needs to run
>>
>>76657716
Maybe 10k, which is roughly one hour of running.
>>
>>76657297
This, just because we can run for long distances doesn't mean we should
We also evolved to be lazy and store fat easily, doesn't mean its a good idea

we didn't evolve to run hours on ends lmao, we walked for extended times and sprinted for a short duration but we didn't fucking do marathons for the sake of it.
>>
>>76657769
>OP is a man doing a marathon for the sake of it
I don't see why we would have changed our nature desu
Ancient man could have gone on long runs for fun
>>
>>76657772
ancient man was very busy looking for food to build up fat storage and survive another winter, he certainly did not wake up in the morning to run hours on end for the sake of it.
>>
>>76657639
the stone age lasted for more than 3 million years, and even in the most extreme proposals the bow and arrow are no older than 300,000 years, meaning that for 90% of that time the only way to kill an animal was to get close enough to chuck a spear at it. we can literally see a gradual anatomical development that favors long distance running in archaic humans.

Early hominids hunted megafauna which moved slowly and fell easy pray to cooperation. Hunting it was so absurdly easy it led to its extinction. Nobody was running for hours after a fucking mammoth

Okay retard. There are literally movies about it based on science.
>>

and you think they just waltzed up to the animal? they were running, dude.

>>76656067
Yes

I would rather overhead press bodyweight and be a vaguely competent kick boxer that gasses in the fifth round than be a bitch build girlyman who's real good at jogging.
>>
>>76657194
We evolved to sprint for attacking animals and zone 2-3 cardio for hiking from place to place
>>
>>76657844
and you think they ran for hours after a quadruped? We sprinted shortly but we didn't do marathons

Do people still believe this anno 2025? The persistence hunting argument is taken out of context by cardiofags. There has never been any basis to believe humans RAN while persistence hunting. All evidence points to the fact that human mostly walked while doing persistence hunting, with maybe some shorter intervals of running, perhaps even sprinting. There is literally 0 evidence that any tribe ever practiced long distance running, and it also does not make a lot of sense theoretically.

it's coz all of them eat those mystery slop "energy gels" i bet.

None of that is true though.
Your heart gets stronger and better able to switch from low to high bpm intelligently, it gets better in every way and takes fewer pumps to do the same thing.

Your knees don't get damaged if you eat and rest properly, they also get stronger.
All these old wives tales you've happily believed about how running destroys your knees are only true if you don't rest or eat properly.

>>76657753
Jogging is a word that has only existed for about 2 weeks.
Zones are a fake and gay concept to sell sports watches.
Everything between walking and sprinting is just running, you're just splitting hairs.

>>76657936
Running is easier than walking, over the same distance. You're exerting more energy per unit of time, but you're getting it done far faster. I can comfortably go and jog a half marathon before breakfast, but I'd be absolutely fucked walking the same distance.
