like Naomi Osaka, right. But I don't know what their training's like. Do they have multiball? Multiball wrecks anyone, however fit. Anyway, mate, what you're saying about the weight classes - I never argued the opposite. I aknowledge they're top athletes. In fact, forget Chen Meng, forget women, I don't know why everyone fixated on that. Probably because I posted a funny pic in the OP and people read something into that. Wang Hao and Ma Lin are some of the best TT players ever, both overweight. This whole thread is me asking how.
How? Because the sport is played in a small space where quickness is no predicated as much on muscularity and lack of body fat as in other sports, like badminton or tennis. There's a difference between Ma Lin's lightning quick footwork and his ability to run 100m fast for example.
