My wife wondered if we are reaching the limit of human ability in athletics; I think we’re only reaching the limit of people who actually take part in those sports.

    As a Former PWFBL-HS USA FB DE, TE Positional Coach & Degreed & certified in many areas Physical Education Facilitator, that required two-college level courses in Kinesiology & biology of sports, after switching from ESE…
    I think there are some that are not in the particular sports that if they trained hard & for long enough
    Or
    If as already pointed-out in other posts, if already athletes in other sports competed in sports, that have crossover skills, then they could set new world records in test of those crossover skills,
    But only some, I think most people are probably thinking too many people could do it.

    I compare to contestants on Jeopardy, there are former long t8me champions, that had everyone wondering what made them so smart, bar tenders & Etc., but again, not as many as most of us would believe.
