Tabula Rasa and Speed.At birth everone is tabula ras(empty page) for speed.The only person running from the delivery room is a nervous father.The speed availableto a mature team or individual sport athleteis a measure of their accumulated physical activities and training.Any idea that the % of fast and slow twitchfibreis inherited is a crock.There is no genetic predisposition for speed and anyone defending this idea has terminal myopia.This is in response to the obdurate nature of U.S. college and professional coaches who believe speed is a “gift” They also have trouble differentiating between their humerus and their rectum.
That’s what she said!
