Fit young European, actually, "Fit" young Americans- seems the right number is maybe 70 watts.
Another observation- when I was a kid slaving away on my father's farm, a sack of feed was 100lbs. I could carry one of them, and some guys carried two at once. Nowadays, a sack of feed is about 40lbs, and people gripe about too heavy.

A sack of cement used to be about 100 pounds (50 kg) when I was a kid. Today they are about 50 pounds (25 kg). Guess if people complain about the weight?
