"If he can accomplish these things he need have no fear concerning the safety of his life should he be forced into an emergency from which he alone may be able

"If he can accomplish these things he need have no fear concerning the safety of his life should he be forced into an emergency from which he alone may be able to save himself.”
Now isn't that a fine example of circular reasoning. Sorry I do not buy it, I need some hard data. I want the author of that post to piss off a grisly bear and see how many chin ups does it require to save himself from it.
- JacobAldridge 17y agoI imagine being able to run at his fastest for 200 yards and leap over objects at or below his own hip height would be more applicable than chin ups in that scenario. I also imagine requesting hard data based on an article written in 1926, and published on a site called 'The Art of Manliness" which itself notes "If you’re looking for a fitness goal, the five fitness benchmarks Liederman lists are a good place to start" is perhaps being too critical of the piece.
