๐งต Cognitive between top athletes and regular people
Anonymous at Thu, 24 Oct 2024 12:50:42 UTC No. 16447109
Cognitively, what sets elite athletes apart from regular people? How do their brains tick?
Is it higher IQ overall? Or do they have certain attributes (like visuospatial skill) in spades? I'm quite curious about this topic and would love some answers

You have a sample size of 1,000 people or 10,000 or 100,000
The highest work ethic (consistent intelligent effort) + the highest intelligence + the highest natural gifts (+ their highest being developed) likely = the most consistent winner

And interestingly, it is hard for horses to time and time prove their better than others in the so simplicity of a straightaway sprint.
These sports are amalgams of many different skills and facets, so while competition is sti quite close on the highest level, it allows an athlete to set themselves apart, by striving to win every 'sprint' of a games facet
Also teammates are important.

Though there is often a consistent fastest man, who wins by milliseconds here and there:
Jordan and Messi lost a lot of games, and won a lot by a handful of points
