Why not?

I increase weight and duration to be able to do more or go longer than than other people which brings feelings of accomplishment. It also brings all the benefits you describe. You don't HAVE to compete, but that doesn't mean that people who do compete are just victims of the patriarchy, that's an absurd take.

It's almost like we can all do things for different reasons and you don't have a monopoly on why people should do a thing.
