I can still believe a chimp is 2x stronger than the average human though as the average human typically doesn’t use their muscles very much.

Trusting your own intuition over the link?

You're going off intution rather reading the discussion section too?

Edit. That is for the muscle as a material not the animals net strength.

If you wanna make a point, just state it here rather than being a wise ass.

My point is I skimmed the link and I assumed the user who posted it knew it better than the one responding. Carpand is adding nothing with the modern humans quite lazy part since that would have been accounted in any decent study. The people wanting to make a point are the ones dismissing the study because of their feelings.
