I've been wondering: what exactly determines natural potential? Many just say genetics, but that doesn't really provide any details and is way too vague.
Why do our genetics limit our potential? DRF says something about our muscles not being able to grow past a certain size (so our heart won't ever be as strong as Bekele), but I still can't find any specifics on the internet that relate to what limits the natural potential. It seems like most people agree that you have to have the right genes, but nobody seems to offer up any details.
