Why does it seems that children usually have a much greater physical disposition/stamina than the average adults?

I mean specifically for very young children such as toddlers. It seems that, as a rule of thumb, they are much more physically motivante than the average (say, 30 years old or so) adults, barring those who actually practice regular exercise. Some children seem like they can run, climb and jump with a consistent timing for longer than many adults.

Is it because our own disposition has been ruined by a generally sedentary lifestyle?

Our body weight is x^3 but our strength is somewhere over x^2. We physically have more ass but that ass doesn’t contain proportionality as much muscle. Also worth noting, damage is the result of the forces involved. More mass means more damage. Injury’s probably mirror cubed rule while recovery would be close to linear.
