Honestly, musk isn't that young either and he's never taken care of himself. Yeah he's only in his 50s, but that's a skinny fat 50 something yo that has never taken care of himself at any point. Putin is your typical strong man bully type, and those types do like to take care of themselves in order to have that bravado image going for them. Plus he does have the training from way back. I'd say it would be even simply because musk had never at any point trained himself physically. He's the richest man in the world, if he cared, he could hire personal trainers and chefs and what not but he doesn't which makes me think he could even curl a 30 lb db or something small like that.

I haven't thought about it, but you're right. He's the richest man in the world. He could (and would need to) literally pay models to fuck him to burn off the calories or whatever else he can come up with. Instead he's just like, "nah."

A big hurtle to get over for being in shape is diet. Sometimes it's just easier to eat a bowl of cereal for breakfast rather than making the eggs and stuff that would actually be healthy. But if you always just have it ready without any thought into it, it's one less hurtle to overcome. So the fact he's not doing anything for it at all tells me he's completely worthless physically. He wouldn't even have to work out that much, just eating healthier with the bare minimum of training could put him over putin easily. But it's easy to see that's not happening
