There is a lot of guys with "a-level genetics" that don't do anything with it. I bet the majority don't.
Baseball requires the least amount of athleticism which is why you see so many sub par athletes involved in the sport. A few of the top athletes in the nba and nfl were able to successfully transition into mlb because it's a lower tier sport.Then you have to consider not everyone is running track, better athletes might only play basketball/football, even baseball. And that these are HS kids who are only going to get faster in college once they start using steroids lmao
He’s got three outta the three A-Level athlete things: Model wife who sucks his D, multiple championship and physical longevity.TBH I absolutely positively hate the A level athlete myth as well each sport is pretty specialized. Yes strength, speed, conditioning help but there are tons more factors like mental fortitude etc.
Take this guy for example. Is he an A-level athlete? I’d be willing to bet there’s a lot of people stronger and faster than him yet he is undoubtedly one of the elite athletes of our time.
Saying someone is an A-level athlete has always seemed like they were saying they had a man-crush on them. Like ESPN and their adoration of ball sports.

I would say powerlifting probably has the least amount of athleticism involved being that no powerlifter has really been known to be good at the big three.
Name one athlete that transitioned from the NBA or NFL to the MLB. Ill wait.....

I dont really care tbh. I like competing in powerlifting because its fun.How does it make you feel Drew to know that powerlifters are terrible athletes?
How's that 600lb pull coming along?How does it make you feel Drew to know that powerlifters are terrible athletes?
I question how fun it actually is to pay them the fees and then travel to attempt 9 lifts over several hours. I do agree its a fun hobby though. I signed up for a meet last year but the hurricane cancelled that.
as ive said before it doesn't matter how much I tell you ive lifted because i lied about my lifts in the past you won't believe it until I actually put up a total in a sanctioned meet anyways then you can't argue with it.
May never happen because right now all my eggs are in one basket playing baseball.
I saw you were still on the roster for the rescheduled meet, but was disappointed when you were absent after they posted the results, did you get a refund?
How did the tryouts go?

Tryouts didn't happen. How is your lifting going?
