Are black guys athletically superior or do they just train harder?

[tgan3]

Serious question, reason i'm asking this is because there are white/asian dunkers who also can get up as high as the rest...

Athletically superior.

/thread.

Black people do not train as hard as whites, PERIOD.

Black people know a secret training spot deep in the Amazon jungle where pygmy jaguars serenade the forest with a soothing roar. This roar is thought to accelerate a person's athletic abilities after a couple sessions. This spot is guarded very carefully among the black community.

Also, you forgot about the third calf.

Blacks tend to have more fast twitch muscle fibers which give an advantage to things like running. Whites tend to have more slow twitch muscle fibers which give an advantage to things like weightlifting.

Different populations dominate different sports, so it depends what you're specifically talking about in regards to being "athletically superior."

As far dunking, it doesn't mean white or asian guys couldn't dunk or get as high. Those differences really only come into play in top level competition where a little advantage means everything. NBA athletes don't even jump as high as NFL athletes on average, so dunking isn't the best barometer for determining who can jump the highest.

Blacks are athletically superior. It's the whites/asians that trains harder to get to the same level.

On the other hand whites/asians seems to have better cognitive performance.

It's not all blacks though. Only the western african ones.

Maybe more whites/asians spend more time doing school work growing up, and more black people more time doing sports. Seems to be cultural. Many black kids are told that sports will be their path to scholarships if they want to get to college, while whites/asians are more likely to have family money going towards college so they are told to focus more on school, even if they also happen to be athletes.

Yes they are Athletically superior. Michael Johnson made a really good documentary on the subject. It goes back to the time of slavery when the strongest, fittest slaves were forced to breed with other strong fit slaves. They were essentially the cream of the crop to slave owners and got the slave traders the most money.

It's awful to think that it happened but it sped up the evolution. A concentrated version of survival of the fittest.

We have already seen when the blacks training very hard, we got Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, Serena Williams, Tiger Woods, etc.

Cultural? Thats bad parenting.

"African Americans" are athletically superior... Due to slave breeding

Same with Jamaicans... Who are all the ancestors of slaves

African Americans and Jamaicans are athletically superior to Africans


Just look at all speed and jumping events in the Olympics... Dominated by African Americans and Jamaicans

Obviously. What more proof do we need lol Just turn on a sporting game. Even the black people that play baseball usually excel. I Bet they would dominate hockey and soccer if they wanted.
