    The person I was replying was “guaranteeing” that a 300lb person can lift at least 300lbs. I’m sure your father was strong but he was a professional gymnast. He’s an outlier. And genuinely, good for your dad - that’s great. But the vast majority of 300lb people aren’t super fit. They can’t all lift 300lbs and this is what I’m arguing. I’m not talking specifically about your dad, I’m replying to the other poster who was making a ridiculous generalization.

      More importantly im complaining about the meme. Specifically that a lot of PE teachers in schools were first in some kind of sport. Coaching isn’t as physically demanding as the sport itself and muscle starts becoming fat.

      That why many PE teachers are fat. It doesn’t mean they aren’t healthy it just means they stopped pushing themselves to the absolute limit and now are teaching others.

      The meme is unfair is my point.
