Why are T-Nation members trying to find holes in a blog post which claims that statistics and science provide evidence that nerd stereotypes are true? Shouldn’t this be of concern to, well, nerds?
But if you find this interesting read the comments, there are some links to very interesting abstracts. This Turkish study found that in right-handed men who’ve had educational success, nonverbal intelligence and T are positively correlated. However, the educationally unsuccessful men with average T levels had higher IQs than the unsuccessful men with low or high T: Testosterone and nonverbal intelligence in right-handed men with successful and unsuccessful educational levels - PubMed
This thread is funny. I approve.
Oh Lixy poo. You know if I was 13 years old you would have sex with me.

Dang, you’re jacked!
This study reminds me of another study mentioned in either a recent article or post in the forums.
In adolescent boys, strength training resulted in 300% greater testosterone levels (if memory serves correct).
There was another article or post mentioning that strength training in older men elevated testosterone by something around 30-50%.
It’s not an IQ:Test relationship but a physical-activity:testosterone relationship.
Nerds and ‘Morans’ just don’t do regular anaerobic exercise.

IQ is different with each different test. Some score a lower number than others for the same level.
As for lower test equals intelligence. I was one of those gifted kids who read all the time. As I hit 7th grade I got sick of being thought less off because I was smart and short. so I used my brains to thinks of a logical way to help it. I came up with lifting. I thought girls might like it.
They did. Now I’m 44 with a great career, a beautiful 33 year old wife, good kids, and I’m still jacked. Funny thing is people back then (30+ years ago) asked me what I would do when I was forty. Of course they were dumbass kids of my age.
Now I still lift and they’re fat.

Congratulations on your wedding.
Got any pictures with your clothes off?
I thought higher test scores were an indicator of intelligence.

That… finally… worked!
Beautiful!
I was pretty lean on my wedding day. I think I was 202 at 5’7". with almost 43 year old almost abs, hahaha. I don’t like getting to lean , since it seems heavy lifting just pounds my joints to much then.
At 200-205 I feel fit, but still confident to hit the heavy weights.
Some of you smarty pants guys could probably explain this better since I had only 2-3 stat courses 25 years ago, but here goes.
If you look at a standard distribution curve for say for brains, you get the good ole bell curve. I’m sure strength is similiar in a pattern. What are the odds to get 1-2 standard deviations to the brainy/smart side on both charts?
I doubt it’s very good. Add in that now people are more sedentary, along with more home computers and I bet it’s harder than ever to find jacked and smart.
