Maybe...
But I don't know how anyone could say that if they haven't trained as long and hard as the so-called 'tiny percentage'
Train that long and that hard and then do the comparisons.
This is no offense to you btw Chasm54 as for all I know, you may have trained as much as a pro.
But I believe that most people who say things like that haven't even attempted to train 1/10th of what the pros have so they really shouldn't be talking about gene pools and things in general they know nothing of.
