Am I missing something here, what is correlation between muscle and mental health? I have seen skinny people with great mental health and I have also seen people with more fat than average suffering from mental illness.
Certainly it appears like pseudoscience now! In essence, Sheldon had a hypothesis and then did what he could to get an interesting finding, in many ways he might have believed that he was doing proper research, and decieved himself.
@Daniel Sumner So, it was just a hypothesis, he not only deceived himself, he deceived others too. In Pakistani Army only certain ethnic group, which is tall and broad chested are allowed to serve country. Maybe it was because of his theories or maybe we all are racist and prejudiced to another communities.
