If you lined up all of the signs for a weight-lifting contest, who do you think would come out on top? While a person’s strength and stamina ultimately depend on their diet and fitness regimen, the stars still may have a say in how physically and mentally strong a person can be. Read on to see which zodiac signs you should put your money on in a physical competition.

This article is based on an interview with our astrologer and performance artist, Angel Eyedealism. Check out the full interview here.

Taurus

Tough and strong, the bull has the most physical strength in the zodiac. Tenacious Taurus boasts more physical strength and durability than the typical zodiac sign. Influenced by Venus, the planet of beauty and love, the bull also loves chasing after the finer things in life, whether that’s eating the tastiest food, wearing the best clothes, or looking the best that they possibly can.^{[1]

Leo

The active and fierce Leo has plenty of physical strength to go around. The regal lion is used to being on top. To satisfy this competitive side, Leo is always found in the middle of the action, whether it’s dominating the soccer field, beating their swim time, or killing it on the tennis courts. All of that exercise definitely leaves Leo looking buff, tough, and ready to take on the world.

Scorpio

Scorpio’s immense strength comes from their desire to give their all. The passionate scorpion is well-known as a sign of obsession. This applies to all aspects of a Scorpio’s life, including their physical health and strength. You can count on a Scorpio pushing themselves to the absolute limit during their workouts until they reach (and push past!) their fitness goals.

Sagittarius

Active and adventurous Sagittarius is stronger than the average sign. Sagittarius loves being outside and taking part in a lot of outdoor activities. The dynamic archer also really values having a sense of space and freedom. Spending plenty of quality time outdoors allows them to meet this goal while building strength in the process!

Capricorn

The hardworking goat stays in shape at their own pace. Capricorns are super ambitious, but like to approach their interests at a speed that’s comfortable for them. This includes fitness and physical strength. You’ll always catch Capricorn on their daily grind, whether that’s running on the treadmill, going for a walk, or biking around the neighborhood. They’re consistently building muscle, but they’re doing it at a structured, slower pace.

Aries

The determined ram uses their strength to conquer any challenge. Thanks to their ruling planet Mars, the planet of sports, passion, and aggression, Aries have a natural tendency to be more active than some of the other zodiac signs.^{[2]
