"And most East Africans (Sudanese and Cushites) are not explosive runners, more for long-distance."

Why do y'all always say this???
Don't lump me up with your vague notions. That's a first.

We're speaking relatively; a Somali can run fast but doesn't have the muscle-dense leg anatomy as the average African American. It can happen. It is atypical.

You can train to get bigger legs and start to run very fast, still, you have to do with what some ethnicities naturally are often born with. That is not an excuse but a rational analysis. Know the difference.

I train with people who grow way faster than me, and I have good genes and probably look aesthetically better. I never use excuses for why they're bigger than me just because they come from certain parts of Africa (I also never wanted to be bulky). Yet there is a reason why people think they're on the juice while they've been natty their whole life. They have gifted bodies beyond the typical guy in the gym, and that goes for whatever ethnicity. I have never seen that kind of starting ground among Somalis, even in the gym. Somalis can grow as big as them, it just takes longer and harder effort.

If you still want to yap like a , take pictures of your legs and post it here and you'll prove my point. I guarantee you don't have explosive legs. Don't start derailing this thread with emotionalism. Try to understand rationality. Leave the stupidity and immaturity at the door. :mjlol:

There is a reason why I was way stronger than all the Somalis I met. Amongst other people, I was just one of the strongest in class. Maybe a close top 2 or strongest (though granted I grew up in a hypermasculine environment compared to the average guy, so strength and fighting prowess were part of the developmental program). Somalis could all become stronger if they trained, but their natural disposition was never robust. You have to learn discernment. Saying Somalis don't have one thing on average doesn't mean they can't be fast or can't grow muscles or can't do this or that. So don't try to be reductive by strawmaning and overreacting. Hopefully I don't have to repeat myself.
 
Olympic levels require Somali athletes that have been training since they were children.
Yes. Still does not negate what I said. If you pay attention to what I wrote, you'll know that I said it was not impossible. Just less likely. Know the nuance of language.

I also said Somalis can't use that as an excuse. Most of it is mental durability. The more setbacks you have, the stronger your mind needs to be to overcome. So technically a Somali Usain Bolt has to be more impressive than Usain Bolt. That is just cool to me. Sometimes a perceived disadvantage can be an advantage. That is the fun thing with sports.
