Cool numbers, whose ass did you pull those out of?
Report from cambridge university

Cool, awesome that they polled every member of a generation.
polled 400
my anytime fitness is literally 99 percent zoomers
they did a thorough examination and asked every single person in the gym to be sure
Could you post the study? Did they poll 400 randos or 400 Cambridge students?
400 people is literally nothing, considering how different it is just state to state. Most zoomers are twigs or obese, so I doubt this. Not saying millennials are any better
somebody didn't pass high school stats
They could start by actually lifting. Most of the zoomers I see spend more time talking then lifting. There's nothing worse than Zs on a station you want cuz you're never getting on it, and can't work in because they don't lift shit.
Excellent
My greatest dream is for my children to have it better than me.

This. What am I supposed to do, be upset that fitness is going up? I don't compete with the young like some boomer degenerate, I am here to build them up.
I'm there to mog them and inspire them to mog the next generation
Good.
The problem is that fitness isn't "going up" as gen z is fatter and browner than every generation prior, as gen alpha will be. The whitepill is that these are mostly young white couples. We need to make it easier for them to own homes and self-segregate.
Fitness is going up among the people I actually care about. Fat Black person goblins are not my problem in a generational relationship. You are exactly right.
>We need to make it easier for them to own homes and self-segregate.
any person with a brain is moving into the wilderness and building their own cabin/working remote.
people who still wanna live in cities deserve what they get.
Yeah cede the cities to the shit and imports like the boomers did, give up everything so you can dig out a bunker in Montana. This will turn out better for you than it did for them certainly.
>be city/local tax cattle for urbanite politicians and social climbers and urban social experiments, be victimized by urban crime and urban police if you defend yourself from it, and have your political voice totally drowned out by urban ballot-stuffing political machines
Lol. No. We're not ceding them, they've already been ceded by boomers. Past tense. They will not be claimed by another party organically or democratically or even peacefully. And that's not our problem.
>They will not be claimed by another party organically or democratically or even peacefully
Literal IPA Cobson and feraljak phenotypes have been retaking the cities "gentrifying" them. You don't have to live in Detroit or the niggiest part of town, not all cities are shitholes. They're our cultural and financial means of organization, they're the vehicles for how those weirdos took over. I can guarantee you that our "side" has social climbers who will use the support they are given to gain power for us *if* they ever get meaningful support. As bad as things seem they could be much worse, not is as good as ever to get some skin in the game while the biggest transfer of wealth in history is taking place. Going innawoods permanently just means giving up, whether you admit it or not.
Yeah I thought the same.
I like it that so many kids are hitting the gym and taking it seriously.
Like what would I want them to do? Drugs and parties instead?
Millennials at large have been the most passive, useless generation I can name. We normalized hedonism, bawds, manchildren. We see the polarization of this indifference in gen z and I'm cool with it. Gen z is torn between rediscovering masculinity and tradition, and getting high while posting on onlyfans. I like the cultural clash they're developing and I'm all for division and strife. Frick sitting idly by and whining.
Millennials fought bullshit wars, made food culture in the US decent and changed the technological landscape forever. The manchildren, bawds and etc are that way because they were never steered in any other direction. It's funny that you think zoomers are all that different. Just because you and many like you in our age group sat on your fat ass doesn't mean very much in the grander scheme of things. What were they going to do?
>you think zoomers are all that different
I'm not american. I watched kids going from "I went to church with my grandma in the village and played until it got dark" to "I am polysexual panamorous multibinary" very very fast, with the internet and European influence.
>Just because you and many like you in our age group sat on your fat ass doesn't mean very much in the grander scheme of things. What were they going to do?
For starters, more millennials could've done what I did, and grow up to be fit and have a stable income and healthy relationships. I don't know what's on your mind but few people live like this.
I'm a younger millennial and went to church with my grandma. We don't have villages but we played until it got dark. Most of the transBlack person stuff never even existed until I got out of college and most of it was coming from zoomers. Why millennials are blamed for this when boomers and gen x were all the thought leaders of this stuff, pride shit and critical race theory, while they were holding all power in politics, business and academia is funny to me.
>I don't know what's on your mind but few people live like this
I do and all of my friends do. Some are bachelors but most are married with kids and work high paying jobs and etc. Not sure what the situation is in your country.
>Why millennials are blamed for this when boomers and gen x were all the thought leaders of this stuff, pride shit and critical race theory, while they were holding all power in politics, business and academia is funny to me.
>gives out participation trophies
>heh, nothing personnel kid, but your generation got participation trophies
>gives out participation trophies
Yeah that would be their boomer and gen X parents, millennials just went to play. Maybe it was because I grew up in flyover but I had never even heard of this shit growing up, athletic competition was seen as a way to get scholarship opportunities. Are you one of those foreigners who reads National Review and thinks we just need to pull ourselves up by our bootstraps too? For fricks sake you're in our age group allegedly and just as full of boomer brain rot
>Are you one of those foreigners who reads National Review and thinks we just need to pull ourselves up by our bootstraps too? For fricks sake you're in our age group allegedly and just as full of boomer brain rot
The really weird shit that is now taking over was originally incubated on millennial internet venues in the 00s. Only a minority of weirdo millennials were ever into that stuff at the time. Then boomers and gen x gave those weirdos important and influential positions in media and other industries and society got really fricked up really fast. Why the weirdos were so effective at infiltrating big institutions is a mystery to me, but I blame the older generations for failing to gatekeep obvious freaks from positions of power, especially when there were plenty of normal millennials they could have been hiring.
Zoomers are unique in that theyre all online but millenials only the ones that are losers are online, so you get a lopsided view of the generation.
Ah, makes sense.
>Millennials ... changed the technological landscape forever
You mean all the tech invented by silent gen, boomers, and gen x?
Feel the same way.
Same. Thank god the next generation will be better.
No one can have a laugh anymore, literally everyone is autistic and boring.

All the gen z kids at my gym are scrawny. there's like 2 or 3 that actually go there to lift, the rest look like the heaviest thing they've picked up in their lives is a PlayStation controller

No one goes to Planet Fitness to get strong or fit.
Just because they sign up doesn't mean they attend. They're using machines at Planet Fitness.
Either way, Planet Fitness' stock is at a year low low, time to invest now for the New Year's resolution crowd.
You can get extremely strong with machines
>subset of people who have more of them entering the age range where people typically start hitting the gym are going in increasing numbers
No shit. Gen Z'ers are getting older and less of them are 12 year old little shits, so of course a higher percentage of them are going to the gym. I will concede that this is the most insecure generation and undersexed generation, so they likely do have a slight boost at their ages compared to generations of the past.
So more Gen Z's are flooding into gyms at the exact same time that they're all graduating college and have their own income? Wow, who could have imagined.
>Planet Fitness
>generation blasted by social media and seeing the cream of the crop """nattys""" constantly
I'm not surprised by this at all
wouldn't be surprised if steroid use was also skyrocketing
they use sarms
I find zoomers explaining they can't open a can of sardines because it's too hard
Yeah, I can believe that. Millennials were raised being told that masculinity is toxic, a "real man" defeats bullies with condescending snarky comments like Michael Cera in Scott Pilgrim (or any number of Joss Whedon nerd power fantasies). We grew up on the Internet being told blogging was a revolutionary act. A lot of us never grew out of our adolescence - the weed, videogames, capeshit and trading cards just became acceptable adult pastimes as the demographic of fans reached critical mass. Back in the early 2000s gym culture wasn't really a thing - you would do some Crossfit or Xtreme Martial Arts as a fad, then move on to the next thing (tough mudder then slam back some hoppy IPA, fellow beardbros!)
Millennials are cucked.
T. Millennial
Older millennials were raised on Schwarzenegger and Stallone movies, not Scott Pilgrim.
Yeah, that's true. I'm on the very oldest end of millennial, and even though I was too young to legally watch action movies (let alone see them in cinemas) that was part of the background of growing up. Along with cool shit like He Man, Thundercats, Bravestar, Jackie Chan movies, Bruce Lee.
But millennials were the generation to get the rug pulled from their child/teen years by 9/11, and Muslims subsequently (against all logic) becoming more of a protected class than Westerners. We were the generation that had the first pozzing influence of Tumblr pronouns and fat acceptance planted in us. #metoo hit just as millennial men were starting to enter the sexual marketplace, alongside the various feminist witch hunts that got pulled on gaming, comics, and all the other places where guys used to be able to be free from gender politics.
I mean, arguably zoomers have it even worse now, as they've been brought up in this climate. But millennial have the cognitive dissonance of being able to remember a time when there were only two genders, when being gay wasn't normal, when it was OK to admire (and sexualise! Imagine!) women, and when saying "It's OK to be white" wouldn't get you assaulted or arrested.
It's all so tiresome.
This is so fricking true... I'm a millennial and I witnessed the absurd pussification of our culture in real time. We didn't know how good we had it.
I'd say zoomers do not have it worse for the same reason you say they do. Millennials growing up with those masculine movies and before metoo and pronoun shit took over is what primed them to be cucked. The world took everything they grew up with and said actually it's shit and if you liked it you're a piece of shit and inherently evil for believing in it. Zoomers can't be guilted the same way because they grew up after that era. And future generations will be even more immune to politics based on that kind of guilt.
But in Josh Whedon stuff people solve most conflicts with violence. The snarky comments are on top of that.
My fellow millennials,i demand that one of you post some pictures of Sarah Michelle Gellar's feet
I will instead post a picture showcasing Elisabeth Röhm's ass from the hit Josh Whedon tv show Angel
Take it or leave it
GenZ is the participation prize generation. They love the idea of "doing something towards progress" but they gain no happiness from reaching the goals, only the idea of moving forward
GenZ goes to the gym to walk on the treadmill for 45 minutes

>You’re literally describing millennial women. Genz is the beyond hot 20 year old who laughs at you from the squat rack
Disregard my comment, I live in slovenia, our GenZ is more similar to American millennials. We are always 1 generation behind Americans
20% say they are homosexuals too, I dont trust them (us) whatsoever
the Andrew Tate effect.
By the time he came out I knew all of this shit for a decade. But if he had come out and been the most googled man on earth back when I was 12/13, my life would've been instantly better.
No wonder the israelites fear Tate.
Good, stronger younger generation is always a good thing.
No shit dude, millennial had to figure out being healthy on their own because their parents didn't give a frick while progressively more zoomers are getting taught healthy lifestyles by their parents.
How well-of a generation is is mostly due to what the previous ones left them. That's why millennials are fricked and zoomers are an improvement.
>millennial had to figure out being healthy on their own
Ah yes, beyond burgers, 500 calorie Starbucks coffee drinks, social media addiction and HRT, all the staples of a healthy life
Fellow millennial here. I had no idea about proper nutrition etc and grew Hella fat. I'm no longer fat but I wish I figured it all out earlier: I wasted my late teens and most of my 20s and never got laid. Plus I have a bunch excess skin now.
How old are you?
29
Look up “shrink wrap effect” and do HIIT cardio for the excess skin my brotha
What was your heighest weright and wht did you got down to?
Nutrition education was fine, the issue in my area was you depend on parents for food when you're a kid and my parents bought junk food constantly so good luck eating healthy.
Now as an adult with my own income I can just buy healthy food even if it means regular trips to the supermarket as things don't last anyhwere enar as long as all the frozen/tinned stuff.
I literally learned about proper nutrition from scooby and IST over 10 years ago. My parents are fat.
>more fit/strong
Mental health is included in fitness. Strong maybe, fit, no.
Zoomers care more about Cbum than Lebron
Millennials are like a beta release of zoomers.
Every zoomer guy I knows know you need to be lean and lift. If you're not ottermode you're a loser.
Totally believe it, these days nobody does sports anymore and joins a community. We as people become more and more individualistic for better or for worse and obsessed by comparing ourself to others on social media. I see a bunch of zoomers in my gym and that is definitely better than them sitting at home. However they are often on their own with their AirPods Max sheltering them from the sourroundings, watching TikTok between sets and not knowing how to train. They will not really try very hard most of the time and make little to no progress. And the few times they go in the gym with friends and film their lifts they have god awful form and are absolutely delusional. Then they injure themselves or wake up to the harsh reality that what they saw on social media is not reality - or atleast not their reality.
Big lifts and a great physique are not built by half assing some meme exercises that according to TikTok "science" are the best. In the locker room I hear kids talking about steroids that don't even look like they lift and their friend has horrible roid acne and yet looks small because he puts no effort in. It is in some way good that GenZ is joining gyms but from what I have seen very few of them are willing to work hard. Most just want the results without any work, or atleast without any monotonous hard work. In some way they really have become like women only wanting to do meme exercises and stuff that makes them look good on social media or makes them "feel good".
I see something similar at my gym - there are a whole bunch of high school boys at my gym hanging out with their buddies. Despite seeing them all the time, very few are actually strong. I think a lot go to the gym as a social activity, which connects with the fact that less high schoolers are playing sports
Statistically, gen z is the fattest generation yet and are on track to continue to outdo millennials as they age
they are lumped together also its 18 to 35 yearolds
The overweight/gym/goer dichotomy is more polar in gen z than previous generations, meaning that the ‘normal weight but not fit’ middle ground is shrinking
Outcomes continue to diverge. The bottom ~70% get fatter and the top 30% get fitter. Very few remain in the middle.
Based. Even though they are annoying I hope they'll continue to pursue fitness lifestyle. A lot of millenials are lazy and fat nihilistic homosexuals.
>50 percent of gen z does daily exercise
Bull fricking shit. Even I don't do daily exercice and I'm the most fit and athletic zoomer I know. Unless you count walking to the grocery store or 10 minute stretches in the morning to be exercice, I doubt that.
Zoomers probably count walking to their college classes as exercise
Then why are youth obesity rates skyrocketing?
Makes sense that the generation most exposed to fitness is the most fit.
they are, and I am proud
once browns leave my country I'll be happy and proud
The zoomers are the browns. They generation is only like 52% white.
>first date yoga
Im pretty sure if any of the party involved bring that conversation the other would just laugh straight to the others face....
1992 chad here and I believe that’s a good thing. Our generation was and still is cucked to oblivion. My millennial friends don’t even lift anymore and they are just occupied on making money or sitting on their asses. The grind culture is better than slacking off. I was always against the wave from 2010 to 2020 but now I’m just washed up. I even broke up with my somewhat zoomer gf (she was born in 1997). But most of the zoomers at my gym are dyels for some reason
That explains why they're all single. The classics work for a reason. Dinner and a movie. Walk in the park. Putt-putt golf. Also, who the frick goes to a bar for a date?
I've taken girls to bars for dates before if they don't want coffee. Just a nice place outside with a table where you can talk over a drink. I think you're imagining like some hole in the wall with a jukebox playing and pool tables.
Gen Z is the most vein generation
You have to look good if you're constantly on camera putting up a fake personality
Vain not vein
Yup. Tiktok, instagram, and the like have turned gen z into a generation of narcissists. I can't imagine living in that world. I've specifically avoided social media as much as possible because I could sense the toxicity of it, even back when myspace and facebook were just gaining traction.
>Millennihomosexual can't spell basic words
Many such cases
>24 percent does yoga
and 100% of women are hiking experts, as they all claim to le love hiking xD
They also spend all the remaining time glued to their phones, static. 3 hours of weekly exercise doesn't make up for that.

"If we make enough social media posts, then we're the fittest generation.", said the fattest generation
It could be both. Pic related isn't based on any actual numbers before anyone freaks out, I'm just proving a point that the two are not mutually exclusive.
You actually made pie charts you absolute autist
Makes sense tho
Took 5 minutes in powerpoint.
That's great OP. I'm 5'6 273.4 lbs. I'm 37 years old and have never talked to a female other than my mother or online playing WoW. Wish you all the best.
Your mid forties could easily make up for all of that if you would stop eating like a Black person
I have DKA and the Dr. prescribed me ozempic but I can't afford it because I'm a neet and my father won't go back to work so I can leech off his benefits and because "muh retirement". What a selfish prick.

Young people are more overweight and obese than ever.
Even us millennials were skinnier as teens.
Hard to believe it’s only 20%. What is “obese,” 25% body fat? Wouldn’t be surprised if they’ve even changed that
20% is exceptionally high
Does that metric even make sense? They count you as obese if you’re above the median, but what if the median is 25% body fat?
Muh healthy med diet.
LMAO.
Are you moronic? Literally nobody with less than 30 years here eat ''med''.
The average american diet is the average for zoomers and gen alphas.They're all into fast foods and ''muh american foods''
Italians always point out they have relatively low obesity for Europe. Maybe that's going to go away in a decade or two...
KEK
For a fricking 12 year old? Jesus Christ
It's terrifying how among poors that fat children and teenagers seem like the majority now. Do these people not realize how bad they are fricking these kids up?
>Do these people not realize how bad they are fricking these kids up?
They don't really care becuase they don't even think about it, or just keep buying unhealthy food even when you're trying to diet.
t. fat kid who had fat parents
>Do these people not realize how bad they are fricking these kids up?
Obesity has been normalized, so overweight = skinny, obesity = normal weight, morbid obesity = chubby
You see an extreme form of fat normalization in My 600lb life, where their 400 lb relatives seem to think of themselves as normal weight and not needing to lose weight.
Poor people have poor ways. This is just what happens when you give them enough rope for them to hang themselves with.
>muh gen z
>muh millenials
Stop putting yourself in a box. I was born in 85 and I hate seeing this shit. Some gen z's are chad while others are trash, some millenials are chad while others are trash. I'm going to say something nice about gen z, I like how they do everything with their friends like it's a commune. I see it at the gym all the time meanwhile I'm there by myself. One thing I don't like is how they tend to be more left leaning but I don't know if that's so much a generational correlation rather than the left vs right dichotomy culture residing in my country and how polarizing it is.
>I like how they do everything with their friends like it's a commune. I see it at the gym all the time meanwhile I'm there by myself.
You were like this in any generation during your teens to like mid 20's if you weren't weird. Mannerbund instinct.
Politically I can't say for certain, I know they don't want to be ostracized from society probably like the alt right millennials and are just doing what they can to live their best life socially. They seem more nihilistic and emotionless like the doomer millennials.
I wasn't weird at all but pretty much had like 1 guy go to the gym with me. The only setting I trained like that where it was a big group of friends was in judo and wrasslin. Lifting weights though I never really saw that from my age demographic among my peers.
You're right about the nihilistic comment but the doomer millenials I think are from 1990 and above, most of my friends have a wife, kids and a mortgage but we're considered millenials.
>Chart ends at 2018
>Doesn't count 4 years of fattening+ pandemic
I've seen a few R*ddit posts about people gaining 100lbs to 200lbs, it's insane.
They are probably the most mentally unstable and ill generation. So it would make sense that they have terrible insecurity and body issues and use the gym to cope.
Gen z are all chronically online virgins that don't know how to speak in real life
>projecting
That group has always been a minority in every gen
Get zoomed on
This is most likely from a survey, which somehow passes as academic research. In my experience dating/fricking zoomers they will talk about how hard they work and how often they exercise, which is likely just cope they've maintained since high school. Now they will put out a yoga mat, go back to watching yt/tiktok/netflix/whatever until their delivery arrives, eat said delivery and then continue to watch videos into the night. I quite enjoyed my time with one of them, only because she didn't have internet at the time. Any media she watched had to be downloaded off of school wifi, thus there was a limited amound and we just spent quality time. Her place was cleaner, she ate better and was more active then.
Unfortunately she got internet again and that all went to shit.
80% take gear
The internet gave us zoomers exposure to tons of different opinions, perspectives, and ideas. For some, this just led them down some gay ideology hole like any other millennial. But not all of us. Many of us realized that most of you older folks are fat moron consoomers with no curiosity. We don't want to end up like you so we put high value on self improvement.
Millenial: I met a guy last week, we had a date last night at <insert bar name>
Zoomer : lol u tk him 2da bar|?
I'm 34. When i was 18 it was considered "weird" to go to the gym. Nowadays every influencer tell you to go to the gym, eat better, etc.
im in uni, am 22. went to a public speakign group, toastmasters. asked how many people exercise at least twice a week, 90% raised their hand
More women are lifting or at least doing some meme booty exercises than ever
Probably same proportion of men lifting like before
>yoga

I don't understand
>>50 percent of gen z does daily exercise

Calling fricking bullshit on this one.
>gen z is statistically more fit/strong than millennials were when they were young.
Yeah but that's a seriously low bar, like the lowest in world history sort of low.
t. zoom
Younger people are more likely to exercise in general. A lot of the millennial kids I went to school with who played sports don’t exercise anymore, have dad bods and pound beers like everyone else.
How many boomers have you seen with beer guts talk about their glory days in high school when they were the quarterback, benched 400lbs and dated a cheerleader? My dad played tennis in college but now he’s obese like everyone else.
Maybe they learned about self care by watching older generations gorging themselves and getting fat. I hope they stick with it and aren’t as obese as the generations before them but I doubt it. Feel free to prove me wrong though.
