In 1943, Glen Finch of the Yale primate laboratory rigged an apparatus to test the arm strength of eight captive chimpanzees. An adult male chimp, he found, pulled about the same weight as an adult man. Once he'd corrected the measurement for their smaller body sizes, chimpanzees did turn out to be stronger than humans—but not by a factor of five or anything close to it.<br /><br />Repeated tests in the 1960s confirmed this basic picture. <b>A chimpanzee had, pound for pound, as much as twice the strength of a human when it came to pulling weights</b>. The apes beat us in leg strength, too, despite our reliance on our legs for locomotion. A 2006 study found that bonobos can jump one-third higher than top-level human athletes, and bonobo legs generate as much force as humans nearly two times heavier.<br /><br />So the figures quoted by primate experts are a little exaggerated. But it is a fact that chimpanzees and other apes are stronger than humans. How did we get to be the weaklings of the primate order? Our overall body architecture makes a difference: Even though chimpanzees weigh less than humans, <b>more of their mass is concentrated in their powerful arms</b>. But a more important factor seems to be the structure of the muscles themselves. <b>A chimpanzee's skeletal muscle has longer fibers than the human equivalent and can generate twice the work output over a wider range of motion</b>. In the past few years, geneticists have identified the loci for some of these anatomical differences. One gene, for example, called <b>MYH16, contributes to the development of large jaw muscles in other apes. In humans, MYH16 has been deactivated</b>. (Puny jaws have marked our lineage for as least 2 million years.) <b>Many people have also lost another muscle-related gene called ACTN3</b>. People with two working versions of this gene are overrepresented among elite sprinters while those with the nonworking version are overrepresented among endurance runners. <b>Chimpanzees and all other nonhuman primates have only the working version</b>; in other words, they're on the powerful, "sprinter" end of the spectrum.</i>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-227780861638767023.post-90674132421661233652011-10-25T13:14:17.258+01:002011-10-25T13:14:17.258+01:00It is interesting to note that monkeys are 8 times...It is interesting to note that monkeys are 8 times stronger than humans with the same muscle volume and cross-sectional fibre density. This is because of more comprehensive fibre activation in monkeys. The theory is, modern humans gave up muscular strength in exchange for dexterity.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-227780861638767023.post-62637898324122478702009-07-31T19:17:30.408+01:002009-07-31T19:17:30.408+01:00The Paleolithic Diet and Its Modern Implications

A favored cooking procedure was digging a pit and putting in hot stones, putting in the whole animal or portions of it, putting in vegetable matter and other stones above the vegetable matter and cooking the meat all day long. So what is suggested is slow cooking at low heat. <br /><br />Robert Crayhon: Throw out the microwave and get a crock pot. <br /><br />Loren Cordain: Well, yes. If you take a lean cut of venison, elk, or buffalo, and throw it on the barbecue, you'll find it's as tough as rubber but if you put it on a crock pot or a Dutch oven and cook it all day long, you'll find that it will come out quite tender"<br /><br />"<a href="http://johnhawks.net/weblog/reviews/archaeology/upper/europe/viegas-pavlov-vi-mammoth-2009.html" rel="nofollow">Mammoth "luau-style" </a><br /> (29000 B.C.)
