    MMA fighters have some of the best physiques around. Georges St Pierre can give most a run for their money:

    So I selected those who are considered the top player in 10 athletic disciplines that your average guy/gal could participate in: basketball, bicycling, bodybuilding, marathon runner, MMA fighter, soccer (football), surfing, swimming, tennis and triathlete.

    Notice I excluded sports (e.g. football, baseball) with multiple, varying positions/roles. Though I guess a goalie in soccer wouldn't be representative of that sport either; but the rest all run around.

    It's interesting that all the women who voted selected athletes that participate in sports that require multiple bursts of speed or intensity (tennis, soccer, MMA and surfing). Other than 1 vote for Michael Phelps, who's more of a sprint swimmer than long-distance, no steady-state cardio, endurance top pro was selected (bicycling, marathon runner, triathlete). No offense meant as I completely respect those whose passions/pursuits are in endurance disciplines, but they don't necessarily coincide with the general "ideal" body physique.

    So what I take from this poll is if a guy (or gal) wanted to personally strive towards an "ideal" body shape, he/she should incorporate those athletic activities that require EXPLOSION...multiple and random bursts of speed or intensity...like the top pros selected here. HIIT (high-intensity interval training) also comes to mind.

    If you ladies want me to create a similar poll asking for male votes on female athletes, let me know along with what sports/discipline to consider.
