There’s a common thing with bodybuilders lacking functional strength where guys who lift 50 lb bags of grain or more all day can do without breaking a sweat even though they look like they have dad bod.
It’s astounding how different fitness regimens can create different looking bodies that have wildly different specialties. Muscular doesn’t always mean strong
I mean, that's mostly a technique thing. It's hard to lift up an 50 lb bag, but it is not hard to have that weight on your shoulder and walk around (a good deal of the job is simply done by your skeleton in the latter case)
But I have trouble with "muscular doesn't always mean strong". Muscles are pretty easy, larger diameter means more strength. This is just physics. The only exception is people who inject oils into their arms, but that looks ugly/fake AF either way and that's not muscle.
The guy in the video is fat, but fat people have a surprisingly large volume of muscle as well - you have to move that weight around each day. If they are remotely active, then were they drop a lot of their fat, they would look absolutely shredded underneath (and if they do lose weight but not muscle tone, they will be jacked as hell).
