Ftms are stronger than cis men

Size disadvantages, maybe?

Idk I never got into sports but ones I know usually got forced to compete with women and then beat all of them
Hell, a (not even on T) FTM swimmer both beat and then tied with Lia Thomas

Yes so? It's not just a matter of being on T then.

My guess is that most of the FtMs on this test were into strength exercises to begin with and the MtFs were into sissification.

wow, taking artificial testosterone makes you gain muscle
no fucking way!

Because in sports you have the best of the best competing and not taking some averages.

Both the cis men and women baselines, and the FTM and MTF people measured here, were/are all in the US air force
>We compared pre- and post-hormone fitness test results of the transwomen and transmen with the average performance of all women and men under the age of 30 in the Air Force between 2004 and 2014. We also measured the rate of hormone associated changes in body composition and athletic performance.

Doesn't air force tests mean like the tests you do when you apply? It says 2.3 MILLION air force physical fitness tests. How fucking big is the air force?

Between 2004 and 2014, presumably they do multiple tests and it’s all recruits, that’s over a decade

The sample size is 24 ftm's, which is extremely low.
It completely depends on what kind of person chooses to both go in the military and become a pooner, and the procedure how these 24 got picked out of the possible pool, and, because the sample size is so low, just random chance.

Yeah, more studies are underway that are more widespread, but this was before FTMs were as common. I’d be interesting to see how results would change but it doesn’t surprise me that FTMs would have a slight edge up for their size due to actively injecting testosterone
