Muscular men are susceptible to disease

Research shows that more muscular men have less immunity, so they don't live as long as lean people.

The immunity of muscular men is worse than that of thin women and men.

According to Health Sina, the price to become a "muscular man" is not cheap. One study found that muscular men, despite being favored by women and having multiple sexual partners, were less likely to be immune than women and thin men. Therefore, the lifespan of muscle men can be shortened.

Up to now, men often develop muscles more than women because they need to fight and hunt. From an evolutionary point of view, a muscular man not only represents good health but also shows that they can feed their wives and children, territorial protection and solid pillars. This ancient concept still lasts today, so women are easily attracted by strong muscular men.

A survey of US nutritional and health data shows that maintaining muscles is not only costly but also pays for health. The 6-year survey of 12,000 American men and women showed that men's calorie demand was 50% higher than that of women, even after adjusting for different levels, this was true.

The study also found that men's muscle mass is the most important indicator of calorie intake, which is more important than their occupational index and body mass index (BMI).
