Why Doesn't India Do Well In The Olympics?

There's no support for athletes there, poor infrastructure, and unheard of levels of corruption.

Cultural differences; indian parents don't value sports as a career, they'd rather their kids study. Plus, they only want to play cricket.

Class/caste systems; the majority of poor, talented athletes will probably never be noticed, and the rich ones are mostly lazy or egotistic. When I say lazy or egotistic I mean they've grown up with servants around the house, can you imagine them being trained by someone lesser than them . Sadly these are the only ones that can afford professional development and bribes.

The poor probably can't afford the bribes to get in. If they do well at the olympics they'll be treated great, but if not you might find them begging on the streets a few years later. If you get injured, then what?

The money the government would spend to develop coaching and facilities for olympic sports is eaten at every level and there ends up being crumbs to actually train athletes.

I've never lived in India but I've been there several times and I'm telling you brehs, the corruption is endless

A Indian bodybuilder juiced up on anabolic steroids proves exactly what?

Compared to who?

Compared to most of the other races that compete in the Olympics, that's who.

I think it's more so they don't care about or train to play sports. Its just not a priority to them. If they trained and put in the time and money like the Chinese they would certainly have a better showing. Not saying they would be dominating but a lot of them don't put any value or priority in athletics.

While this may be true somewhat, some other countries also have cultures to where sports aren't a priority or the government provides little assistance or is limited resource wise to support their athletes endeavors & they still do better in the Olympic games collectively medal wise than India, so culture alone isn't the only primary factor as you're attempting to make it seem.

Villagers in Kenya been crushing the long distance game since forever. And I know from MUCH personal experience the Kenyan countryside ain't got no damn infrastructure.

They made their own infrastructure

I would have thought that the Indians would be good at distance running like the East Africans.

A lot of their offspring could dominate if trained right tho.

Dem three armed, crab handed, six leg nikkas would be merkin shyt.

You'd be driving from Nairobi to Mombasa and see kids running on the side of the road barefoot. The closest village would be at least 5 miles behind them and another 6 ahead.

Being skinny doesn't make you a good runner

I got to run with 3 Kenyans in college, the mentality really is totally different..

Every workout is to the death
