In the 90s my mom loved watching figure skating, so I watched it often enough to recognize skaters. This resulted in me having a crush on Oksana Baiul, Tonya Harding, Nancy Kerrigan, Kristi Yamaguchi, and likely every other woman figure skater I saw. There is no shame here.

I didn't know what she looked like so I pulled up her wiki. Her first picture from her skating days looks a lot like Angela from The Office to me.

Pretty much every Olympic athlete is gonna have a conventionally banging body. There are a few events where other physiques are better suited, but those are the exception.

Edit: The Olympic village is notorious for going through a poo poo ton of condoms because they gently caress like crazy there.

I think one of the most fascinating things is to observe the differences in physique and proportion by event. Maybe the most drastic I can think of is a speed skater vs a kayaker.

If you are not familiar with curling it is common at the highest levels to pregame in the rink bar with fans between your matches. Like they don’t do it at the Olympics but everything else “well that’s another round robin matchup done let’s get some brewskis”

I worked briefly at one of the curling clubs in Toronto and those motherfuckers absolutely would not wait until the matchup was done to drink.

There are some Olympic-level curlers who are buff as hell, though. I always assume that's just having free access to Olympic-level training and gyms. If all I had to do was be limber, have the stamina to sweep and good rock-pushing technique, but there was the option to also get ripped for free, I'd do that too.

I don't think Robbie looks that much like Harding but like that's because she's an actor and also a different person. Harding was a pretty normal looking person, Robbie is obviously not average but I don't think she was only cast because of her looks. I think it's really weird to complain about that casting because you think the actor is so much better looking than the real person when that person looked perfectly normal.

Y'all should watch the movie if only for Allison Janey. She whips rear end in it.

Edit: to be clear, Allison Janney always whips rear end, but in this film she whips an exorbitant amount.

A tangled skein of bad opinions, the hottest takes, and the the world's most misinformed nonsense. Do not engage with me, it's useless, and better yet, put me on ignore.

Okay but it's still weird to contrast her with "one of the hottest women on the planet" like she's a goblin.

Even just the difference between 100m and 800m runners is pretty noticeable.

"The Man Who Cannot Deadlift"

If anyone's not yet watching Physical 100 on Netflix then I'd recommend it. Korean game show where they put 100 of the fittest people from all kinds of different athletic backgrounds together to compete to see which one's the best. It's basically if the picture in the post above asked "what if we slammed all of these hard bodies together?"

I don't think they mean "weightlifters aren't elite athletes", I think they mean "if you didn't know better, looking at a weightlifter and guessing from their body you could easily mistake them for not being an elite athlete".

Ie the "you may not like it but this is what peak performance looks like" meme I guess

It's this. Also, a 400 lb. deadlift isn't exactly a world class or even particularly notable performance outside of the lower weight classes.

Yeah, it's just 1x bodyweight which isn't impressive.
