I’m no expert but Asians tends to be smaller in height, stature and limbs so they have to move the weight from point a to point b in a smaller area because they are closer to the ground, smaller arms etc.

also less range of motion with smaller arms compared to long arms.

Because you don't need to be athletic or skilled you just need to take a bunch of drugs.
That’s absolutely wrong.

You still need to be genetically gifted in terms of strength to even be on the same level.

There’s not a single sport in the Olympics where an athlete isn’t genetically inclined to excel in that sport or has natural talent. Just not possible at that level. We are talking the 1% of the 1%.
