Answer 1

Yes it is.
In Terms of Sociaty,
Intelligence and Strength are inversly praportional.

Answer 2

That depends on where you're coming from in the first place.Lazy people tend to be lazy,but I've worked out since I was 14 and the new exercise and nutritional technology have spurred my interest throughout the years.I read about diet and exercise all of the time to help me develop new ways to train more effectively.Things outside the exercise world like magnetic imagery have helped as well because all of this newer equipment as well as computer modeling has helped improve our knowledge of how the body performs and reacts under different stimulus.But there is of course alot of truth to what you're trying to say,but it may not be so much the technology but the individuals fault.Technology doesn't make you make the decision to let your body run down.You do.At the very worst it takes the focus off of what we should do.Just thought that I'd add Tai Chi is Chinese not Japanese as one answer suggests and there is very little cross ethnic training between the Chinese and Japanese though many employers in Japan have mandatory calisthenics in the morning before work because research(technology) has shown that it increases productivity and health.One of the many arts that I studied.It's up to the parents to instill these values in their children as mine did me.

Answer 3

I think there is some evidence to suggest that advances in IT at least are making our lives more stressful and faster-moving.
Most people are aware of this and take steps to balance their rather sedate working life with some kind of physical exercise 2 or 3 times a week.
As lifestyle changes occur, and have occurred throughout history, there are always heavier physical tasks being taken on by machines, and so people need to maintain their personal strength through exercise programs and healthy eating.

We could become couch potatoes very easily if we wanted to.

Answer 4

Yes and no. I think some technology is bad, such as certain types of medicines and watching TV all day. But others are good that help feed people in desert regions and inventions for disabled people. I believe the force of mother nature at this time in our advancement is far more of a determining factor. Survival of the fittest is hindered by such things that aid us in overcoming difficulties and thus weakens society as a whole to survive a disaster. In the end, it all evens out.

Answer 5

Maybe in the U.S. in countries in Europe you're required to serve in the military for a couple years after high school so over there they might have added discipline, after all you don't see a lot of fat-asses over there French, British, Italian etc. maybe that's why. And Japan is even more high-tech than us and there aren't any fat asses over there either except for a couple of sumos, maybe because over there they're ingrained with Tai Chi and eating fish since kindergarten. So our country seems to be the only one with this problem. We've really let ourselves go as far as discipline which is a huge factor in being healthy or working out. Like the Romans before the fall of the Roman empire in their drunken revelery.

Answer 6

Yes, because weaker genes are allow to propagate. I am thankful for this, since I was very ill when I was 3 weeks old and would have died without modern medicine(antibiotics). Do I now pass on my lesser genes to weaken the human species. I'm afraid so.

Answer 7

Yes I agree
because technology has increased the life span of humans but on the other side of the coin we are becoming feeble,weak & unhealthy.

Answer 8

No. In more technologically advanced countries, indicators of health are getting better. Mean lifespan is increasing and mortality rates at all ages are declining. Ask any life insurance actuary.

Answer 9

Yes, it is not only making everyone unhealthy and weak but also it makes every one lazy.

In organization and work place, it makes the work monotonous and make the workforce feel tired of being idle.

At homes, it makes every one lazy and sick.

Answer 10

Advancement in Technology is exactly against nature's law for survival of the fittest, so the answer is yes.
