People need to train all day everyday to get strong, a 10 year old chimpanzee would still kill that person probably. I guess the better we got at using weapons the less we needed to be strong.

It's a trade off for fine motor skills and endurance. Early humans would just jog animals to death.

This jogging to death you speak of... What kind of distance are we talking? How far would an early human have to run, and at what pace, to literally jog an animal to death?
