Here’s the next episode of the UNCENSORED Podcasts Season 3.
What about genetic differences in performance?
- There is research to show genetic differences effect performance.
- We constantly compare ourselves with others in the gym and watching sports events.
- We can’t help doing that, but you should at least try and compare yourself to someone of very similar genetics.
- Genetics play a huge role in success; it plays a bigger role than anyone ever wanted to admit.
- It doesn’t mean you are not a good person or equally of value as a human if you don’t have specific genetic gifts.
- It doesn’t seem fair. No matter how hard you practice you won’t be the same as someone who is truly gifted. Life is not fair.
- If everything was equal the person who did the best hardest work wins. This is not what happens. Genetics plays the bigger role.
- We are all unique.
- But at the same time genetics should not be a reason to not work hard to be your best.
- It is not an excuse to not work hard to achieve your best. As far as performances compare yourself to your own performance; improve yourself.
- What you can achieve?
- Knowing about genetics is great way to understand what other people have achieved.
- John and Brad go into great detail into how genetics affect various sports.
- It does not always mean if you train harder you will get the same results as someone else.
- It does not mean you should give up training.
- Everyone is capable of change.
- Don’t base any of your metrics on performance.
- All that matters is your own results.
- How you respond to exercise and diet is unique to you. You can try things that others do, but it does not mean it will work for you. Also what works for you will change over time. You will have to experiment to find what works for you.
