My quest for 6.7

Yes, I was asking why you said he had to drop below 6% to run 6.7.

The logic in the post above is, frankly, baffling. The correlations noted do not at all imply that he must get below 6% to achieve his goal.

I think he can loose that amount of bodyfat. I wasn’t being dissencouraging. I don’t believe I was suggesting an un-attainable goal whatso-ever.

Let’s face it, there has never been a study that showed the accurate bodyfat % of all the sprinters in history who ran under 6.7 secs for 60meters. And because of that, you and the other guy: “Fogey fogel-face” seem to think I’m making stuff up. Do you both believe he’ll reach his goal at his current level of bodyfat?

Will just have to dissagree then. Show me one world class sprinter that is a little chubby, and I might belive you.

There is a factor that niether of you seemed to have observed. Not everyone has the anatomical and physiological traits of the fastest sprinters. One sprinter might need 1% or 2% less bodyfat than his training partner, just to run the same speed as his training partner if everything else, was ‘almost’ equall.
