Re: How common and realistic is it for a woman to be stronger than a man?
Quote:
It's a profound experience for most men (the few who ever actually put themselves in that position) to realise how hopeless you are in that kind of combat situation – with someone actually trying to dominate you and put you in a position where they can kill you. I bet it would be just the same in Olympic wrestling .. There was that video on Youtube of the young male reporter interviewing a highschool girl wrestling champ, and getting mauled on the mat .. Haven't seen that one on YT in years? Jobbers must be pretty fit .. I think the level of domination you'd get from an unfit guy going against a real female grappler would be pretty unusual to see .. Even in BJJ, it's only 6 months in you realise the girl you rolled with early on was probably only going 20% on you. Added after 16 minutes: Quote:
At the commercial gym I go to, girls are doing 200kg hip thrusts, while guys are curling 10kg dumbbells .. So a lot of bodybuilder guys note that these girls are doing progressive overload, full body compound exercises, boosting HGH, and they're likely to be growing more muscle – gaining way more strength. Girls also tend to be much more disciplined when they're actually trying to build muscle .. The number of girls I see with lifting notebooks these days, progressing every session, on programs, tracking macros .. I'm genuinely curious to know what it feels like to grapple a hardcore gym girl, because I know the kind of exercises they do (like heavy lunges) build this phenomenal leg, hip and lower back strength, and whether you'd get absolutely humiliated meeting that kind of strength head on Last edited by Ryan Futuristics; 21-Apr-22 at 00:56. |

Re: How common and realistic is it for a woman to be stronger than a man?
The problem is that our impression is entirely on what it is -- like the stats, this percent that percent etc. What probably we forget is that "what it is" is not biologically fixed, it is a combination of factors, the most important of them being social and cultural. As these factors are changing, the stats do also change. The progression of the "strength gap" since say 1990 to 2023, if drawn on reliable data, I think it will show a gradual narrow-down.

Re: How common and realistic is it for a woman to be stronger than a man?
I would add that even in the realm of "physical fitness" there are different ways to measure strength.
The excerpt below I found on a google search: Strength Level calculates your performance in compound exercises like bench press, deadlift and squat. Enter your one-rep max and we will rank you against other lifters at your bodyweight. I could see the average 25 year old women who isn't a zealous bodybuilder maybe having a better max weight on a squat then an average man, but the opposite is probably true for bench press. This goes back to the generic "Men have better average upper body strength and women's hip-to-waist ratios contribute to better average low body strength. |

Asian women: Arab women: White/Hispanic women: Pakistani women too: Women from every nearly ethnicity that the average indian guy finds attractive frequently outstrip him in physicality for one reason or the other. It is a humbling experience to be physically inferior, often genetically so, to swathes of attractive women. |

6 true Stories of Women Showing Up the Men in Their Gyms
“Shortly after we started dating, I asked my boyfriend to lift with me at my gym. According to him, he lifted every day, so I didn’t think joining me would be all that challenging. Little did he know, though, that he was walking into my territory, where chicks lift heavy and push just as hard as any guy. He ended up making it through about 20 minutes of my workout before he disappeared to the restroom for the next 20 minutes. He returned pale but ready to give it another go. Later that morning, he had to drive about an hour to work and actually had to walk backward up the stairs so his legs wouldn’t crumble under him. Today, we're married, and he survives the gym daily with me—but he still takes breaks in the bathroom while I secretly smile and continue my sets and lifting more than him!” —Jess K. “I’m 5 feet tall and weigh maybe 105 or 115 pounds. I wouldn't know exactly since I never get on a scale. But aesthetically, I don't look like a bodybuilder and my petite size is misleading. So one day, when the squat rack was free, I proceeded to start my warmup. As I was getting ready to start, this guy, maybe 6’7” tall, comes and asks how many I have left. I politely let him know I was just starting but that he could feel free to jump in. I let him go first. As he racked the plates, I warmed up doing burpees. When he finished, he started to take off a plate. I politely said, ‘No don't remove that.’ He looked at me, puzzled, and asked, ‘Are you doing the same weight?’ I smiled and said, ‘No, I want to add another plate.’ I started to do my set. Before I even finished, he had left.” —Malvina P. “My husband and I used to do workout routines from health and fitness magazines together. I would pull out my sets of weights and tell him to get heavier ones. But he usually ended up grabbing lighter ones like mine, resting more, and complaining. He wasn't a fan of my tips on his technique and form, either. We've done more separate workouts lately as he cant keep up with me now! Ha! ” —Jennifer N.
