Professional Athletes seem above average in looks

[oc16]

Not gay at all, but you ever notice this? If you look at most NHL players, baseball players etc, 75% of them seem above average in looks. I am not talking about their height or build, but a lot of them seem to have chiseled features, square jaw, balanced facial features and good hair. There are very few below average or average at best looking men in professional sports.

Out in the real world, 50% of men look like crap.

Just an observation.

Elite athletes have the elite genetics to deliver the proper hormones for optimal development.

It's OVER for 50%Cels.

They are physically fit in a lot of cases so that’ll help their looks.

Athletic participation is good for testosterone as well, which might help the other aspects.

They’re Chads / Tyrones.

If one has decent facial structure/bones, being low BF (like most athletes) will bring out the good features.

A fit person is going to look better... Their confidence is maxed. High testosterone levels. Alpha traits. Swag.

Even though I do not play professional sports, I sometimes get mistaken for being on a team when I'm out. Lately I have been cutting so I am not as bulked as I was when I was eating everything around me during lifting, but I was trying to look cut for summer. Still trying to get sharpen my jawline. I need to increase my exercise.

Being fit and athletic will help you look better. But I wonder if being good looking results in positive feedback, which results in more confidence (and testosterone?), which results in improved athletic performance, and probably on and off field leadership?

That would be an evolutionary-positive trait - i.e., the fittest members of the genetic pool would be the most sexual, while the less fit would in essence be Beta supplicants to the breeders.

Its true and makes sense. People who are better looking tend to me more intelligent, fitter, healthier and likely also have better co-ordination and sports ability.

This is because the human body is one thing and how one looks ie facial attractiveness, proportions etc is related to many other aspects of that person.

All elite people in different areas, business, sports, academia etc should generally be better looking. Look out for ugly people in high places though, though because they probably shouldnt be there.

We see different things on the outsise (intelligence, athleticism, good-looks) but on the inside it is just one thing that cannot be separated out like that in our rational and scientific paradigm.

I guess we really are just animals and it's survival of the fittest

That snowball effect begin in our early years of life.
