I agree with this. People that go to the gym see any other sports as inefficient and entertainment to a comical level. They drive to/from the gym. It's almost comical

But yet, when I go out hiking or to the mountains with them they can barely keep up. They still think they are the fittest though.

The gym/lifting is mainly a vanity place, where it is all about feeling disciplined and looking good. But your body is way more functional doing real things.
