So during the last two days my country held an Ironman competition. Looking at the photos I see that 99% of them are lanky DYELs in their midlife crisis.
Is this what normies call a "peak performance physique"?

Most people who legitimately train for performance look like shit. Just look at most dudes in special forces/elite military units.

this dude has the worst body I've ever seen but jesus christ can he run

As opposed to V02 max that was recorded in ancient humans?

The primary muscular adaptation to endurance training is to get smaller muscles because this maximizes mitochondrial and capillary density. Some people erroneously assume that slow twitch muscles would get larger with endurance training but it isn't true. The PROPORTION of slow twitch muscles increase, but they all get smaller. Bodybuilders are the ones seeking to maximize both slow twitch and fast twitch muscle size.

Anyone that decides to start taking running seriously will get weaker. You can do a little, hobbyist running (cycling is better) but anything more will make you weaker and less explosive. It's a law of sport specificity and it's the reason you don't go up to Klokov and tell him, "Yeah, but what's your 5k time."

>but... VO2max...
VO2max starts topping off after a year of endurance training. Endurance athletes frequently aren't at their peak VO2max during competition due to overreaching on fitness during the training cycle. Their performance comes from the local muscular adaptations they spent years developing, along with mental hardness from being elite athletes.

They look good, especially the guy left of centre?

"aesthetics" generally has nothing to do with physical performance.
Not sure why that's so hard to understand
>>
>>77476685
most dudes in group, ranger batt, etc are blasting roids.
Most people in this pic aint natty
>BUT ITS NATTY UHCHEEVABULL!!!!!!!
maye so but they aint natty
>>
>>77478296
There's no point in engaging in any sports-related activity if you don't end up in your natty peak though
>>
>>77478453
and why would say, a marathon runner want to add extra muscle mass that would only make him run slower?
>>
>>77478301
In group, maybe. Ranger no. Especially for selection/school, you're natty the whole time. Roided dudes wash out.
>>
>>77478456
The first guy ever to run a marathon died, so the marathon runner is de-facto wrong and retarded.
>>
Correct, big musculature is actually a performance killer. If you're interested in iron man it's pure cardio and lower body strength. If you're interested in being an elite operator it's all lean and mean calisthenics. Meatheads can't ball, sorry lads
>>
>>77478458
why do I get the feeling you're 12 years old?
>>
>>77478465
Perhaps because you're gay and/or retarded

nigga i ran 40km just by preparing spamming push ups, sit ups and squats. marathons are a fucking meme.
i still spam those 3 exercises cause they help with the lifting too, but lifting is way superior to cardio in terms of giving your 100%
