Just into the last century, furniture makers began making "woodies" as a sideline with their businesses. They would purchase a car or truck with no body, and build a physique from wood. These custom vehicles were often setup like small buses and were widely used by resorts to transport guest both to and from railroad depots. They weren?t called woodies previously. Rather, these were referred to as "depot hacks". In the horse-drawn days, a "hack" was a wagon.
Incidentally, some of the ancient Grecian statues that presumably represented the Greek ideal of male perfection have been scrutinized with regard to their body fat. The famous Farnese Hercules is estimated to possess 11.96 percent, the Apollo Belvedere, 11.76, and Myron?s Discobolus 12.06. If these statues were real men, they would most likely not flourish inside Olympic contest, the place that the top six guys have averaged a body fat count of less than 5 percent.
