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?

Less weight. I don’t mean that in a fat or skinny kind of way. They are smaller, generally not much fat on them, and the extra general boost that youth gives us. Then add on all the BS we’ve absorbed, on purpose or not.

We can lose all the weight we like, get healthy, and we’ll feel a massive improvement for it, but we’ll never feel like we did when we were kids.
