How do yall come up with these numbers? 1 mile in 13/14 minutes. Are you walking:gucci:

Exposing your flabby and you don’t even know it.

If you simulate a thread mill at 5mph is 12 mins per mile. The average person is not walking 5 mph therefore a more casual speed at 2.5 mph is 24 minutes a mile.

At least try before you make a unprovoked comment

The average person should be able to run a mile non-stop which should be at the 5mph average that you mentioned. Sounds like you're the flabby one if you think a 12 minute mile is unreasonable:russ::russ::russ::russ::russ:

You must be unaware how flabby the average person is or you must have never taken a couple months off from running.

Most people with poor fitness won't be able to run more than 5 or 6 minutes non-stop at ANY SPEED.

12 minute mile is best case for someone who has never run.

You should always be able to lift at least your own body weight as a man, unless you have health issues that prevent it. So if that is not the case for you, then I suggest you start there as your goal and then move up. You can accomplish this an two ways. You either lose weight, if you are obese, or you gain muscle strength if you are too weak.

WHy is benching the go to metric for this? There are better, more useful exercises and body parts to gauge strength than a bench press :hhh:
This! There's folks out there that are absolutely shredded an can't bench 225, but according to the coli folks were doing that in 5th grade despite evidence showing that roughly 1% of the population can even bench that once :mjlol:

Google says the average man can bench 135. That's everyday Joe, hopping off the couch. So the idiots saying 315, or double their body weight, whatever, can all of this please just stop? Like, can we be done? Average person, 135, the end. My mind is hurting.

Did you read my response earlier? I said they SHOULD be able to do it in 12 mins. You thought that was “too slow” and this could be accomplished by “walking”

Maybe YOU need to log off and go for a run. You clearly not thinking right
