RE: Usain Bolt vs. Carl Lewis, this is funny.

Doesn't it need to take into account the track and other improvements since Lewis' peak? Hence his PB is from when he is older..

The older guys round here (SG) said the Mondo track improved times by 0.05, and it's clear from analysing times before and after, and how the WR went from 9.91 to 9.86.

Bet you Carls last 20 was better than bolts.

Bolt makes Lewis look like a dolt!

Uh hmmm .. Posting things like this makes you look like a dolt.

Fwiw ..... bolt makes just about anyone running a 100m race against him look like a "dolt" .... Because he's amazing.

This just in, 9.64 is faster than 9.99.

Bolt makes everyone look bad, but it's not correct to compare people in this manner. They are from different eras.

As an example, in terms of ability to access information I am better at it than any man alive was when Carl Lewis won his gold medals.

BTW, Carl won 9 golds and 1 silver over the span of 4 Olympic Games in 3 individual events and 1 relay. That's nothing to scoff at.

9.63 only .05 from UB's best

9.99 is .13 from CL's best

real gap would be 25% less

the obvious difference is that '84 CL was clean, and '12 UB was totally doped

CL was the better sprinter

it is UB who looks like, and who is, a dolt (whereas CL is just a douche)

If you think any sprinter was clean in 1984 then you're the one on drugs.

I want to see Jim Ryun superimposed over El G running or Prefontaine over Bekele.

Jesse Owens is a slug!

hahahahahahaha... you should ask Carl about the stimulant effects of strychnine.

Are you really just figuring out that Bolt is exceptionally good?

However, Lewis was a better "overall" track athlete.

IGF-1 LR3

THE LIGHTNESS !!!!!!!!!!!!!

OH how carl wishes they could of made peptides

like this in his time ,

high steroid use will naturally up igf-1 in cells

for certain athletes ,the ones that get fast with

steroids and the others it just never happens.

but with the lightness can make it happen for them all

to such a greater extent ,

when you see a tall french kid with no muscle and lacking

strength to squat half his weight then know something new in

sprinting

japanese and chinese to go sub 10 next year .

EAT THAT CARL.

The difference is more than that, and the record actually went from 9.92 to 9.90 (Burrell) to 9.86 to 9.85 (Burrell again) to 9,84 (Bailey). Charlie Francis commented on his site that he felt Ben Johnson on modern tracks might be able to do 9.65-9.69 but not 9.58. That would put Carl in the 9.75 area or roughly the same as Asafa Powell. For comparison, the 1500m WR dropped by ~1.3% in the same timeframe.

was the introduction of serious weightlifting in 80's to

sprinting the next paradigm shift after steroids in 60,s

for sprinting bar afew russian training methods .

and with both now and fact to maximise each neeed the other ,

(his unparelleled strength/power for a sprinter that was never

matched and wont be as not possible without roids !!!!!!))

johnson one of first to take these aspects to ultimate

and from young age .

others that got close doing same but then steroids

went and so then did out and out serious lifting as part

of training regime.

Exactly Johnson was a super responder

to steroids , exact quality describe above where

the faster ones produce abundance of igf-1 in cells

due to high steroid use whereas the majority never .

And he made the 1980 "Olympic" team.

WHY DO PEOPLE ALWAYS HAVE TO QUALIFY EVERYTHING!

RRRRRR IM MAD!

BOLT IS FASTER, LEAVE IT ALONE, STOP TALKING ABOUT TRAINING METHODS AND DRUGS

RRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!! LOL SOMEONE TALKED ABOUT BEING BETTER OVER ALL. EXCEPT THIS IS ABOUT THE ONE HUNDRED METERS! BOLT IS BETTER RRRRRRRRRRRR!

SINCERELY,

ANGRY BENNIE

you must be joking yourself,

johnson would of never broken 10 seconds without

chronic steroid use,

as with bolt would never of broken 9.90 without

THE LIGHTNESS even with other steroids he takes in off season

and when ever can

NOW TO NEGATE THIS FACT AND IGNORE IS JUST NOT POSSIBLE.

THESE TIMES Are RESULT OF PEDS ,

dependant and not possible without .

perfect enhancement to nervous system

is The lightness AND why not tested for ,

i think i know why !!!!

that extra stride frequncy from supped up nervous system

and easyily keeping gains from previous cycle ,mr bolt.

this stuff is good

where have all the previous tall skinny french men

lacking even basic strength for event ,been before .

i think i know why !!!!

similarly with liu xiang ,very first to benefit from

it .

and this goes to SENIOR RENATO ,that chinese dont dope

well what about there top 2 elite sprinters at moment

definitely on the sauce , about time as most coming from

dam china .

chinese will dope if can get away with it like all rest .
