    Well, your problem seems to begin and end with being a weeb, so how about not making anime your personality and get some bitches.

    I’m one of those few lucky people that finds it relatively easy to exercise (and be decently good at it), so I was often that weird dweeb that loved DBZ that would win in sports day, score in football games, make the top four consistently in tennis, win the 1500m, etc. I was that weird kid that loved the bleep test, because it was something I was good at.

    My experience was very similar in PE. Popular people would get cheered on, I’d dominate them, and it would be met with a mixture of indifference and annoyance that I wasn’t unfit like everyone else I hung around with to discuss the intricacies of Neon Genesis Evangelion at lunch time.

    I figured out the secret to P.E. in school.

    I just didn’t go. I skipped almost every gym class from 7th grade to senior year. I was able to talk my way out of getting an F somehow so I never got held back or anything despite literally never going for years at a time.

    I have a theory that the Naruto run works as a placebo.

    Placebo works like a mental buff, you believe more in yourself and perform better.

      Isn’t that how Naruto wins the fights too? He just believes in himself and the power of friendship, so he gets stronger.

      So anon is lore accurate

      If you watch olympic sprinters, they’re bent over to the same extent. I’m pretty drunk so this explanation might suck, but the front-heavy weight distribution that comes with it means its much easier to propell yourself forwards while sprinting.

      Of course, you can’t hold your arms like that, it was just for ease of animation. But it’s not 100% totally and all-consumingly bullshit. Just like. Mostly bullshit.

        Yes, you want to push your mass as horizontally as possible, which will be limited by the grip under your feet. Vertical motion is wasted energy, but if you’re full horizontal you’ll just slip.

    You watch anime, not act it out. Thats like watching Looney Tunes and trying to hit everything with a massive mallet 😂
