#didnt think I'd add the average weights of goats into my search history but here we are.

A thought occurred to me.
Sky is a knight. He trains every day. He slep a lot, but he trains every day.
And he went toe to toe with Demise, after slapping his sleepwalking bum down like three times.
My point of this. He a strong boi. Which tells me he’s as ripped and strong as Twilight?
Is Blorbo ripped under his clothes and the game just denied us seeing?
OOOHHH a good question, and While I do have a take on this I've gotta be careful how I word it to avoid spoilers. You got me researching things, (And mass comparisons cause I live in kilograms but I know my American friends don't. So I've got both! :D)
So, Here we go :D
Sky is strong, he's very strong, but he's not as ripped as say Twi. He's lived at high altitudes his whole life and trains on the daily, eats pumpkins on the regular alongside what I can only assume is actually quite a healthy lifestyle. But I wouldn't say he's on Twi's level. Twilight is by a long shot the strongest of the links.
He's not a ranch hand like Twilight or say Time. He's not lifting masses of weights on the daily. He's training with a sword that's actually pretty light in comparison.
I did research for this
So taking the master sword as a Longsword blade, from my rough research into the blade. And assuming that Sky always trained with a Longsword. (I don't know about the goddess blade, but I'm working on the master sword dimensions.)
An average longsword weighs approx 1.5kg, (3.3 pounds) - or about a bag and a half of sugar. Which would be heavy, to begin with, but if you lifted that same weight for years without changing it, it would become really easy to lift. Like how if you lift your work or school bag all year it's easy to lift after a while.
After a while it's second nature, it just becomes an extension of yourself.
Sound like anyone? Who can swing a sword like it's nothing??
Whereas in comparison, Twilight works as a wrangler. He wrangles goats. Goats are a little heavier than that. Lets say about (65 - 100kg (between 140 - 220 pounds). Using the midpoint at about 80kg, or 176 pounds. (Or in terms of bags of sugar, 65 - 100 bags) As i couldn't find any information about Ordonian goats but did find information about goats. LOTS OF GOATS
Goats are just heavier. By a bunch.
Man I rambled a tad there
Basically, No, Sky isn't ripped. He's just got one hell of an adrenaline rush. You could even say he was fuelled by spite and hate, the determination to save Zelda and destroy the guy that caused him all the pain in the first place and became superhuman for a while before what I can only assume is crashing so damn hard he slept for several weeks.
But thats all I can say, I don't want to give away spoilers. Spoilers are bad. We ain't here for that.
This was an interesting thing to look into this Friday night, thanks for the ask! :D
