Could a 50+ year old man be as buff as Joel during part 1, in a post apocalyptic setting without using steroids?

he's a men of course he can still be buff. Only women get weaker with time because they are pieces of shit with no soul.

buff? he's just fit it's not hard if you aren't on a american diet and exercise once or twice a week.

They were in a city and Joel is a smuggler, he could've been getting supplements, protein, whatever he wanted.

50yo men produce the same amount of testosterone as women

>thinking that's buff
lmao dyel
Not unless they have a severe metabolic issue.

Yes, men can easily stay strong and muscular well into their 60s, especially if they do manual labor.

This idea of 28 year old soiboys claiming their bodies are breaking down because they’re “old” is simply (((modernity))).

is this supposed to be some kind of retort to people saying how abby got to be a like a bodybuilder?

no, also men can still produce high quality sperm longer than women.

>heh this will btfo those stupid chuds

>buff
He's basically just not fat and has the frame of a manual laborer

This. People need to look into the modern diet. It's one of the most poisonous things ever. I'm trying (with great effort and still failing for the time being) to return to a pre-industrial diet that's similar to the stuff people ate in the 1800s. It requires cooking knowledge, though, and making 90% of your meals yourself.

Anyway, I forget the name of a dentist who retired in the 30s last century, but he basically went on and made a half travelogue/half dissertation on dentistry as he noted in the last decade or two before retiring that patients started coming in far more often for cavities, whereas in the past cavities were a rarity. There was one statistic where he notes in the turn of the century, Sweden had something like 2 dental offices for the entirety of the capital. Now, obviously, there are hundreds lining it. He went on traveling around the world, meeting up with indigenous tribes all over the world from the Maori, Aboriginals, to Scotts, etc. who lives completely rurally and was amazed at just how much stronger, faster, and healthier all of these people were compared to the modern man.

It was really fascinating stuff. Wish I remembered the link.

Like the other anons said, Joel likely had access to supplements to sustain his body and keep it in relatively active shape. It's not like every post-apoc game has a complete collapse in societal frameworks, some things do endure.

A man can, not a manchild raised on soi though. Post reps.

fuck off tranny

>whiout steroids?
sure, he is not buff, just on shape

>whiout a stable source of food?
no fucking way in hell

Fpbp

Why even assume that he's not on steroids? Why wouldn't he want to be on roids?

hahahah NO

You can be as buff as that entering your 50s if you've been seriously working out since about 35 minimum.

You deluded fags have a warped perception on male physique made by hollywood. No man during his 50 can maintain a frame like Joels without having considerable amount of body fat without consistent workout and extremely picky alimentation.

>cityslicker hands typed this

Taking steroids is a part of the game loop lol

>maintain a frame like Joels without having considerable amount of body fat without consistent workout and extremely picky alimentation
What is this ESL nonsense

How would Joel put on fat if they are getting rationed food in Boston? And the 20 years in between his daughter dying and ending up in Boston he likely had to constantly run from infected or fight other survivors for scraps.

Absolute bullshit

> Implying that you fags know anything about manual labor.

I've grown up surrounded by blue collar/ rural guys. Most would look like pic related. Only paid actors/ sportsmen have Joels body type

He's a smuggler and thug who regularly beats people. He also used to be a bandit

Imagine seething this hard

If they can turn an ugly woman into a gorilla, a man can stay in shape
