Title: WE ARE SPORTY PEOPLE, HERE IS OUR TAKE!
Sports were incorporated into the daily lives of Soviets in order to make them more well-rounded individuals and more productive workers. Soviets were strong believers in the “triangle” theory where the more people they trained and had participate in sports, the large base of the pyramid, they would be able to produce more top level athletes to succeed in international competitions. Sport was so heavily integrated into society that in many cases was just another job. For example workers in factories were required to do exercises throughout the work day that were designed to increase their productivity.
