If you could raise an athelete from the moment they were born to become a world record holderm how would you go about it?
How would you progress their training from year to year, what kind of lifestyle would they live, etc.
Every possible thing you can think of is an option.
You can not make champions. All you can do is fuel their interest.

Do some reseach and see how the Todd Marinovich experiment worked out.
basically i would just have them run long distances untill they were a freshmen in highschool, just so that they get an incridible solid base. then i would slowly have him do speed but not much. not really make him go super hard till jr or sr year. then have him easily win footlocker.then get them into a great college and let him become the fastest guy ever.thne become pro and grab ever wr from 1500-marathon.

Brilliant.
The SNATCHMAN is a GENIUS!!!
If i wanted him to be a World Champion I would make him play an obscure sport like speed walking or handball and throw him in the weight room and pull him out of school and have him workout in the basement. And moniter everything he eats.
