Rainbow Dash's Athleticism in Question

Considering moving and hitting clouds involves her legs, and her daily job is weather patrol. I think we have reason to believe she has pretty strong legs. If moving around and using your legs in some form daily doesn't get your strenght up I don't know what does. And she does more physical activity than the rest of the Mane Six (excluding AJ).

Did you read my post?

 

To really accurately tell, we'd have to do lots of math, with equations that I don't think even exist. I answered why AJ would be on par with RD in running and hoof-wrestling (hoof wrestling depends on strength, not inertia), and why her legs wouldn't have atrophied.

 

We haven't seen AJ OR RD work out. We have, however, seen Fluttershy and some other ponies work out in "Hurricane Fluttershy". Working out is far more in RD's personality than AJ's, anyways. AJ would probably think it's kinda useless, given she gets plenty of workout with her chores. Remember when RD shouted "Stampede!" in Applebuck Season, AJ was just relaxing under a tree. She seems to do that a lot, actually. She was doing it even during the competition.

 

And you're right about the tug of war. But Rainbow Dash would've lost the tug-of-war, if it weren't for her wings. She didn't fall in because of her wings, not because she held her ground.

 

Maybe you're right about the hoof wrestling but as far as I'm concerned through my heavy lifting work out I found my bones get heavier and more dense allowing me to bench and lift more. Also Rainbow Dash would have had to have thin and hollow bones rather than thick ones.

Clouds aren't that hard to kick or move around... and far as I've seen AJ is always seen doing some kind of physical work and Rainbow Dash is either posing in front of a camera, relaxing or just flying around.

 

Overall Rainbow Dash always leaves a bad taste in my mouth when I see her able to do these feats.
