It’s not at all about that. I guarantee you that if these guys maintained whatever diet they had at the time and added three hours a week of doing something with their muscles, they would look very different.
The point is that you wouldn’t find muscle mass like that as attractive without those people. This men were considered beautiful then and they aren’t now because the culture of what is considered beautiful has changed.
Oh well I never made any objection to the beauty standards so I agree I guess? I only said I don’t want to look like that, I’m a little old school, I want to look like all those Greek statues.

Right, before power tools were common. I bet these guys were on average stronger than current average men.

You are asuming they do physical work and aren’t just white collar.

They probably did physical work in a white collar though.
