Tons of good food, tons of hard child through adulthood labour, plus weight training,  and the fact that he probably weighed a bit less than your average man today.

Most of those guys that were ripped and muscular put in long, hard days at very physical jobs since they were boys, ate very little refined food, and were a bit on the lighter side. I can only think of a few that were over 200 pounds or close to it, almost all were #150 - 175 or so.

One would lift barrels, curl chickens and squat down to pee.

Protein wasn't invented so you just ate bisquits.

There was an interesting article in the June 6, 1897 issue of the New York times that detailed Eugene Sandow`s diet verified by the Office of Experimentation in The Department of Agriculture.

His diet was extremely Carb Heavy at 502 grams. Overall calories per day for him were 4462 including Beer and Cigarettes and Ice Cream and Cake and Butter and Wine and Bread Pudding :)

The Department of Agriculture also calculated the diet for regular laborers, children and students etc...

We find that their average caloric intake in 1897 was certainly  higher than todays purported average intake which is quite interesting.  Clearly their entire lifestyle was different and much less sedentary.  Some may find this article as interesting as I did.

the biggest and baddest mofo that ever lived

he was in his prime 212 at 6'2

all the whites tried denying him and he triumphed

embarrased and beat the living shit out of white boxers in the 1900s as the first generation of freed slaves

fukd white women when blacks where getting hung just for looking

maybe the greatest african american to ever live

the first and only black man to really piss off white folk he even started the first race riot when he won

against the greatest white heavyweight champion the goverment even tried to fuk him

the irony in all of this is a great white boxer joe chowinsky taught him in jail for 23 days while they where

both locked up after joe KOd him in 3

4 days per week weightlifting training (squats every training) + additional bodybuilding work (1.5h+), competed 2 times in powerlifting meet during 3 weeks. I don't have a car, I walk everywhere or take a bus.

76kg @ 165cm, around 12% bf and I still don't need to eat more than about 3k calories.

Well, to be fair, they were hookers, as was his black wife (?).
Because back then, a respectable white woman wouldn't be caught dead with a negro (in public or in a relationship). Hmmm, seems like the more things change, the more they stay the same.
