Everyone is not going all in at all.There's so many athletes though, "hard work and training, coaches etc" isn't just something only one or two driven individuals are performing, it's the baseline. Everyone is going "all in", or at least large numbers are depending upon the sport. Claiming "it's not genetics" when it comes to sporting success comes across as completely clueless.
Anyone who has ever played a sport quickly realises with the same environment not everyone is the same after all.
Thats the fucking point i'm trying to make. 99% of these amateur/highschool athletes never come close to there reaching there full genetic potential. That's why I find it funny that there quick to discredit the coaching/effort that went into the other guys success.
I"m 5x the athlete I am now then when i was playing varisty football at a fairly large texas school (graduating class of about 450). I bet every fucker i played highschool football with is reminiscing about there highschool prime Al Bundy style while i'm out here busting my ass.
Literally the only two kids on my team that had there own coaches on the side where the only two that went on to play college football (one was henderson state and the other was baylor). The rest of the team where like me, never came close to reaching physical/mental prime.
The average/baseline american coach (jr high and highschool) isn't going to get you anywhere close to your physical/mental prime. There's a reason why these kids who've been on club teams for a decade are fucking stomping the shit out of some random highschool team and theres a reason why parents are intentionally moving to highschools that have established programs in there sport.
