The bit about athletic performance for the average, advanced and elite categories is fascinating. I had read about this phenomenon in Mark Rippetoe's Starting Strength, and reading it here again makes so much sense.

The title really should be "Practice Alone Doesn't Make Perfect". We all have our own genetic potential, but how much of it we're able to harvest then depends on how we are nurtured and how much we're willing to push ourselves. Makes a lot of sense.
