(((Who is behind this?))) Who would we have been in highschool? What do you think brehs?
Everyone at my public school did at least one sport or they were kind of looked down on. Not that people knew they didn't do a sport, but it was a type of person who didn't bother to get competitive with any athletics who people also independently didn't want to be friends with. They clustered in little groups playing handheld video games at lunch while the rest of us lived normal teen lives. Kind of sad, now that I think about it. I did water polo on a mens team where I fucked around and learned bantz, then I did high school and competitive club swim team in a coed setting where I shared a lane with girls significantly older than me from elementary school on. Have your sons do this, my first sexual experiences from freshman year were with much older and more experienced chicks who were pretty much about to go to college, it was way more fun and wholesome than some of the shit I heard about my friends getting up to.
I'm in the military - where everyone joins voluntarily, knowing there's a requirement to stay in shape - and we still have people that bitch and moan about having to do PT twice a week. I can't imagine the nationwide temper tantrum that would be thrown if people were forced to exercise, it would rival the one following the 2016 election.

JFK suffered from horrible, debilitating illness throughout his life. He had horrific, recurring back and stomach pain but forced his dad to pull strings so he could serve in combat on small, quick boats which bounced around like mad and exacerbated his health issues. He could easily have spent the whole war behind a desk and, given his various maladies, would have been totally justified in doing so. He could often barely walk by the time he made it into high office and was on a heavy course of painkillers and various other medications just to project strength.
A guy with those limitations really understood the miracle that being young, fit, and healthy is and a country with that perspective at its core - along with his appreciation of ideals, high art, and philosophy - would have been vibrant, powerful, and awake. What America should be. No wonder they killed him.
This the easiest way to cull the weak, it'll only take a generation or two before the fatties are mogged by your everyday mail man and eventually give in. America would become a Hyperpower if the average joe could OHP the next country's sorry excuse.
The military sort of does this at the DMZ in Korea. The americans that are assigned there must meet minimum height requirements solely for propaganda/intimidation purposes. A 6'4 soldier looks like a giant next to a malnourished 5'2 north korean.
