I personally think that we subscribe to the genetic theory of abilities a bit too much. On noes, I’m not built like a runner due to my genes, so I may as well sit on the coouch, eat doritos, etc.

There is a woman who helps run an outfit called Nerd Fitness. A professional advised her that she wasn’t “designed” or “built” for weightlifting. Today, she can deadlift over 420 pounds, and she weighs less than 140.

Sorry!!! If you have short legs you will not be a star runner. If you are 5’2” you will not be a world class basket ball player. Everyone is limited by their body type in one way or another. It’s simply a physics thing!!!
