Discussion points:
- Poor economic environments are more powerful catalysts to enhanced physical preparation versus the distractions inherent to powerful economies (ergo the electronic gaming industry in the US).
- The low cost physical activities such as T&F sprints, jumps, throws, basketball, baseball, football (or what North American’s refer to as soccer), and so on are popular amongst low income populations. This is a result of necessity and the favorable alternative that physical activity/competition presents in relation to potential criminal behavior
- So much can be attained with so very little (in terms of resources)
- Lastly, note the successful baton exchange in the relay- too bad this video wasn’t available for analysis prior to the lineage of failed attempts in this regard by the guilty US teams of past
