Strength, Power, Reactivity, & Speed Discussion / How Many Men Ran Sub 11 100m in 2010?
« on: October 16, 2012, 02:31:33 am »
http://www.all-athletics.com/en-us/2010-11-30/how-many-men-ran-11-sec-or-faster-100m-year
Can you guess how many athletes ran 11.00 seconds or faster on 100m in the World in 2010?
We can tell you: 3778!
And in the different Areas? And what about the 200m?
All-Athletics.com publishes some interesting statistical summaries from its incredibly deep 2010 Top Lists:
Men’s 100m
10.50 sec or faster: 528 athletes
Africa: 42
Asia: 85
Europe: 122
North and Central America: 245
Oceania: 13
South America: 21
11.00 sec or faster: 3778 athletes
Africa: 225
Asia: 380
Europe: 1178
North and Central America: 1726
Oceania: 106
South America: 163
Men’s 200m
21.00 sec or faster: 302 athletes
Africa: 30
Asia: 21
Europe: 72
North and Central America: 161
Oceania: 8
South America: 10
22.00 sec or faster: 2625 athletes
Africa: 171
Asia: 265
Europe: 744
North and Central America: 1268
Oceania: 74
South America: 103
Notes:
- The 200m All-Athletics.com 2010 Top Lists are published until 22.40 sec – 3925 athletes.

Pretty cool stats just thought I'd share.
Edit- Of course these stats underestimate exactly how many people are capable of those times because in a lot of regions there is no access to track and field. Also there's a lot of elite athletes that play other sports that could run sub 11 or maybe even sub 10.5 (mainly NFL sub 10.5) but yeh it still gives a good indication of times. If that list was expanded to sub 11.5 than there would probably be 30,000+ athletes under that time.

"It was about 40 degrees and 95 per cent humidity and West Coast were going through the motions of a training session - all except for one player," Quinn recalled. "They were doing runs at 50 per cent and there was this one guy doing it at 100. They did the session for about 30 or 40 minutes and the whole time this one guy was doing everything at 100 miles an hour.
"I have always watched him since that time. That is his work ethic all the time. I say to our players, he is the benchmark."

Article & Video Discussion / Manthropology: The Science of Why Modern Man is Not What He Used to Be
« on: February 10, 2012, 03:16:32 pm »
http://us.macmillan.com/BookCustomPage_New.aspx?isbn=9780312555436
Basically the author proposes that modern men are weak and physically inferior to our ancestors of the past. It's a long read but it's good. Some of the author's claims are questionable (e.g apparently there were australian aboriginals who had the potential to be faster than usain bolt) but overall it seems to make sense.
This is the part about australian aboriginals.
.
So i think the author is saying the average male today is weaker than the past because of a mix of genetics and laziness. Than he proposes that part of the reason why the general genetic pool throughout the world is weakening is because of how the modern day world is run.
.
Thoughts about the article?
