About Phelps - he need to build, maintain and condition a whole lot of muscle mass.

He’s incredibly far from a normal human - he’s a true specialist.

Lots more energy goes in to that, compared to losing excess fat and living a “normal” human hunter gatherer existence.

The whole system change once you go google scale, so to speak, and phelps is gmail.

In the words of Ido Portal: we’re human first, movers second and specialists last.

I see relevance in this research in the human/mover perspective.
