Abstract in brief

  • The study compares muscular strength between men and women who have undergone the same level of training, highlighting differences in strength despite similar training regimens.
  • Results indicate that men generally possess greater muscular strength than women, which is attributed to biological and physiological differences such as muscle mass and hormone levels.
  • The findings suggest that while training improves strength in both sexes, inherent biological factors still play a significant role in determining muscle power.]

@FembyFaggot @shewontsettle @AcrataTheGorgon @Phlegmboyant The difference is absolutely massive. Anybody who has ever wrestled a little with the opposite sex is keenly aware. This paper has a tiny sample size, but the average difference is like 60%. https://t.co/coa2vKTOGn https://t.co/oSktdZcRwk

@Phlegmboyant @AcrataTheGorgon @lesbianhedonic @FembyFaggot @shewontsettle Laughably ignorant and contrary to science. Again, just playful wrestling is enough to immediately figure this one out. This study has a tiny sample, but you don't need a large one for differences this large: https://t.co/zVLLoOr4x1 https://t.co/BSv83Wv0wu

@Mycroft_Smart1 @JulieOfAutumn @ThomasWillett9 Physiological differences are going to be a difficult topic for you. https://t.co/03022S8SjO https://t.co/pv9Oqos0YX https://t.co/kP5hR6KMHm You have yet to bypass these anatomical differences. Your assertion holds no ground.

@libertyycookies @msbilliejowhite @realpeteyb123 Yes because it’s backed by science. https://t.co/7L9NjGqcBd https://t.co/GOtuMKXPo7 That’s not me just making that up. That’s stuff you learn in school. Depending on what you take.
