>>966 this is literal slave mentality. in ancient athens slaves weren't allowed to train physically because hauling wood or plowing fields or whatever kept them in just good enough shape to be able to do whatever manual labor was required of them without them getting strong enough to rebel against their masters.

being able to train in a controlled, regimented way instead of just whatever your job happens to throw at you that day, being able to train in a specific way for a specific sport is the privilege of an aristocrat...being fit and strong is something you do for yourself, not so you can do your job better.
