Today, we pick up and put down heavy objects over and over. In Ancient Greece, they picked up and put down heavy objects over and over. Today, ours are shaped like dumbells and barbells and all that stuff. Back then, it was heavy stones, lumber, carts full of stuff, and the like. Just as effective at building muscle as today’s equipment.

They also did a whole lot of cardio, calisthenics, wrestling, and pugilism to tone that bulk muscle mass down into the familiar Herculean shape, which is the same stuff we do today.
