why are blacks so poor at strength sports???
« on: January 12, 2011, 12:40:02 AM »
everyone has to admit, black guys have great genes for building muscle and being athletic.... so how come white guys, particular europeans totally dominate strength sports, such as wsm, olympic lifting and even power lifting.... field sports is a big mystery too, javelin ( which should be natural event ) shot put, discuss etc draws a blank, i cant understand it?

I think thre's two reasons...first, they haven't simply traditionally never been into these "white sports"...blacks are very good sprinting, long-jump etc...sports where a great amount of strength is also needed
second...their natural bone, tendon etc structure is weaker than, for example finnish peoples, in general...and as you all know, hopefully, finns have been kinda good at pl'ing, strongman competitions, shot-put etc...on the other hand, this light structure blacks have helps them in many other sports, long-distance running, for instance...also the "sport" of bodybuilding is good for them...small joints make their muscles look a lot more swole compared to heavier built white fellas, think about flex vs fridge...fridge has doublr kens muscle mass...still kenny looked a lot more impressive, IMO...just my 2000 000 cents ofc... ;D

People of W. African descent have denser bones than Euros and E. Africans...E Africans have lesser fast twitch muscle fibers than W. Africans--diff genetics (good for long distance running). Smaller waists of W. African blacks "apparently" help in running, and having high calves "apparently" help or are better for torque transfer

It's because their ancestors in Africa wouldn't go in water for fear of crocodiles - I'm not being funny, it's absolutely true - I read about it when I was studying Sports Sociolgy at university - that's the prevalent theory as to why there aren't many black swimmers - the innate fear has been handed down through generations. I'll look back into it and see who was the one who proposed it.

The answer is obvious, why would any black athletes participates in white trash sports like powerlifting make pennies and dimes when they can make 20mil/yr playing real pro sports

I was thinking of stoping slow max reps... because these guys do nothing but explosive training, they are equally skinny as I am, but taller and even have more fat than I have....... and they bench 200kg  :P, it's not fair :D

true power is not size, it's dense muscle fibers. Most big guys bodies look stressed out in away that they pump so hard for relatively so little strength at the end.

They aren't poor it's just a less an obvious route to go. As has already been stated. Football, basketball are far more obvious and desireable sports to go for.

There are plenty well known strength sport athletes, past and present, the colour of night. O.D. Wilson, Steve Goggins, Mark Felix, Mark Henry, John Davis, Jim Williams.

But really if you're a big strong tower of darkness you're gonna go slap some pads on and try and make it on a football field.

Oh and what about John Henry.....

In general, blacks have greater hip and leg strength and power, and white have greater strength and power in their shoulder girdle (upper body).

Hot bitches typically like ballers, not shot putters.

Nope. You are so out.

What sluts like is money. Shot putters aren't making millions so that equals less sluts.

Perhaps the tires from an 87 Ford Tempo in a vacant lot in the hood isn't heavy enough to practice with?

Black people are not "poor" at strength sports.
Black people just tend not to gravitate towards strenghts sports in general.
This is not a big mystery.  ::)
