I’ve read a few things in the past that say that babies pound for pound are stronger than bulls. Also they seem to have ridiculously strong cores (abs) without training. Plenty of videos show them being able to hold their legs up over grass for large amounts of time when they don’t want to touch it. How are they able to achieve this without training? What advantage does this give them if they can’t naturally cling on to mom or dad?
In: Biology
Human infants, like most primate infants, have extreme grip strength in comparison to their size as an evolved feature allowing them to cling to their parents, trees, etc for safety. Now this ability is not as developed in humans as the other primates due to humans being bipedal and able to hold the child reducing the need of the child to cling.
