I think the Warriors were all as fit as a fiddle. If they were big drinkers or smokers they wouldn't have gotten past the Turnbulls, forget about the cops or the Furies.

LOL
I am quite sure they partied with the best of them.

May or may not have smoked, though I do know that a couple of the actors did, while they were filming.
But I know a lot of people who back then, partied, could run like crazy with a reason, and all looked like alley cats----lean and mean, cause they only ate junk food most of the time, and never actually had time to gain weight.

I don't think outrunning the ACs had anything to do with healthy habits--I think it was an adrenaline rush of survival---you never know what you can do till you have to! LOL :D

But it is nice to imagine they were healthy, and ate right, and looked that way cause they worked at it!! ;) that image of them works for me, even if I don't believe it.

I think the Warriors and the Riffs had the healthiest and most disciplined lifestyles. The Rogues, Orphans, Turnbulls, Lizzies and Punks seemed to be substance abusers. Of course there were lots of other groups at the meeting and the Orphans weren't even there.

I'm not sure but I think I saw Swan smoking twice in the movie... The first time, when they arrive at the conclave, and again in the tunnel with Mercy. Have you noticed?

i think the warriors are pretty healthy, except maybe cowboy who seems pretty tired when running from the furies in the park.

All these could just be ardrenaline rushes. I mean if I was being chased by a busload of Neo-Nazi's I'd boot it to the platform and not stop once no matter how tired I was. Not saying they aren't fit, but its just a possibility.

you,ll probably find the warriors and the furies were the fittest gangs.jeez could those furies run.just take ajaxs words to swan for example.

"did we lose those (expletive word) clowns or what?" :D

Luther was more than likely hopped up on crank or something. he just didn't look to healthy kind of like death warmed over. when we see the punks during the "no where to run" scene I believe it is, they are in a bar. as far as the warriors go yes fear makes you do crazy things one would never normally do or maybe even physically be able to do.

Of all the "turfs" we get to see in the movie, the Warrior's seems the best to me. I know Swan doesn't seem all that excited about it when they step off that train. But the beach and boardwalk and ocean are such a breath of fresh air after the dumpy places they'd been. Maybe the Furies wouldn't be so loony if they didn't live in that depressing dungeon.

Ajax would've gotten tired eventually too. Don't forget he's been running all night from a the meeting,bus full of skinheads, the orphans (even though they weren't chased), the cops in the subway, and then the furies. They only got time to rest at the station so yeah. They all couldn't run forever.

were talking about the film here not the video game.the storyline between the film and game go down very differant lines.
