Exercise is a ππ’π π‘π between energy and fatigue.

The Greeks didn't shy away from those fights
They believed that competition, in any form, was beneficial.

The Greeks valued the Olympics so much that they would actually stop battles,
in the middle of the fighting so that contestants could walk trough unharmed and make it to the games on time.
Today the Oylmpics give out silver and bronze medals to contestants who don't win.
