2 things that came to mind watching the kids from the 60s; 1 is that this was like right before fast food and hyper convenient pre packed foods really started to take off in America. Yes they were around but not at the scale and level of consumption that it would hit a little over a decade later. And 2, while I won't say it happened, it wouldn't surprise me if these kids were the most fit in their school and were compiled together into one class in order to produce this video; this was during the height of the cold war so it wouldn't be shocking if this were made and put out as propaganda like "look at our future troops, the reds don't stand a chance." Still tho, awesome stuff..

In high school we had an old school PE teacher who loved running. Our final for the semester was infamously called the, "20 Minute Run", where we had to run laps for 20 minutes without stopping. This rule was strictly enforced and your grade depended on it. It did not matter how far you went or how slow you ran, you just had to keep running. He slowly worked us up to the 20 minutes mark with 5, 10, and 15 minute runs over weeks. The success rate was extremely high. I remember watching an overweight girl trudging along for the 20 successfully. His point was we all had the potential to do this if we tried, and he was right. We also had to do pegboards and other old school shit like in the video. I had him his last year of teaching at 65. The dude could still do a pegboard no problem.

That clip is from La Sierra High School and was part of a program and more or less marketing campaign by Stan LeProtti to try and have similar programs implemented all over the US. It was by no means a typical program, and the video itself included the best of the best kids in the program, many who went to that school specifically for it, not just the average teenage boy. It would be akin to looking at footage of a conditioning and lifting session at a top-tier Highschool football program in Texas or Florida nowadays (and the kids playing football are way stronger and more athletic now).

What the Army means when it says "not fit for service" doesn't mean literally too weak to do military stuff. Basic training is designed to gradually take a new private from the couch to a fitness level sufficient to handle the demands of service. Instead "fit for service" refers to a potential recruit who is: 1) Free of serious criminal convictions/charges 2) Free of medical issues (this includes depression, anxiety, asthma, diabetes) 3) Free of face and hand tattoos 4) BMI under 27.1 for males and 5) Have a high school diploma and pass the ASVAB.

Zack to your point about fitness in schooling. The video is of course a very limited example, essentially a piece of marketing. But regardless I think the biggest reason a P.E regimen like that isn't possible anymore has more to do with the defunding and increased privatization of the American school system. Considering that for at least white Americans the 60s where a period where the country had seen some of it's most extensive spending to improve it's welfare it makes sense that a school could have resources to actually put a program like that in place. Oh also I thought it important to note that the school in question seems like a non-intigrated all-white school I wonder what the P.E program for schools that weren't looked like in that same town

I'm a parent, teacher, and I have been highly physically active since I was 6. I have to say this about the PE part of things (I'm not a PE teacher by the way) - it starts at home. Your kids need to see you active. You need to instill in your kids that it is important to be physically active. The kids that are the most active in PE at my school are those that are on sports teams and are active on their own. The kids that do not participate in PE are the ones that go home and play 8 hours of video games with parents that do nothing about it. Some kids may have a disability that prevents them from participating, but we have plenty that do not have a disability and simply decide not to take part. PE is not a class that would be considered for summer school. We have students that know they can fail PE and still move on to the next grade. It's a shame to see because we have some great PE teachers at my school.

"We can't just fail a student because they can't do some sort of physical task." I disagree and I think we should be failing students for not being able to complete a physical standardized test, which includes modified tests for disabled students. PE teachers need to be held accountable like any other subject in school to ensure students are receiving both a physical education and an adequate amount of physical activity that supports them in their journey of becoming an adult. In my experience throughout grade school, I was never given an actual education about fitness, how to maintain the chassis that carries the head on my shoulders, and how it relates to my health. Carrying this education into adulthood wasn't even available as an option - it didn't exist. There are a lot of good PE teachers out there that genuinely care, but there's also a lack of emphasis on preventative education, lack of funding for schools and teachers, and a lack of consequences for failure that filters out many of the good ones. As a result, like you said, kids just don't give a sht. Most of us watching this video would agree that the world needs more exercise and physical activity, but unlike eating and sleeping, the majority of those that are not active participants don't see the point in participation until their chassis starts to break down and affects their ADLs. It's never too late, but it's kind of late. - PS I enjoy hearing your thoughts and opinions on topics in fitness. Thank you for your content!

More broadly, this segment highlights the problem with uniform expectations for large populations. Having a fixed standard of mathematical competence for every single student would be like requiring every student to bench 225 for 10 reps - easy for some, impossible for others.

@@basicmeme1040 Reading is not just going through the letters on the page, it also consists of critically going through the material and coming to logical conclusions. I assume it would be fair to call it reading comprehension skills. But even the basic reading skills are at like 8th grade level on average nowadays. Thats why there is so much face value media consumption that leads to misinterpretations of artists intent. Reading comprehension translates a lot to media consumption in general.

Let’s be honest, all of ours knees elbows backs and etc. Will be fucked up in the elderly ages and of course training and maxing out would affect that, but what the reason to be absolutely healthy when your are old and can’t do anything like this anymore anyways?

Isn't ironic when your buddies act tough and call the younger generation weak or p*ssy's, but they haven't worked out since their last football practice in 2004?

That palm lift isn't super heavy, it's cumbersome because of the shape/size. I see a lot of those types of comments on image sharing sites like imgur, along with horrible lifting infographics. The casual doesn't know their knee from their elbows.
