I have one thought on this that isn't mentioned in the article: autism. So I've come to learn about hypotonia. Basically a lot of children with autism has lower percentile muscle mass [1]. I'm not sure anyone really knows why. I would posit that the percentage of engineers or programmers with autism is higher than the general population. That shouldn't be a controversial statement. So I wonder if one of the benefits here of strength training or just building muscle mass in general is that it counters hypotonia. Also, I suspect that the rules, rigidity and structure around workouts and diet probably appeals to a lot of neurodivergent people.
