If speed is indeed a strictly genetic gift, then are some throwers just "screwed" from the beginning?
Well, this is just another point of view.
And "screwed" is not exactly correct, you'll throw hammer instead. Like Olympic weightlifting and power lifting- first speed+power and second "only" power
Typing this I expect to receive some expert opinions.
But I can bet soon we'll know for sure if former soviet scientists are right about the speed

And what if speed is genetic gift?
Some scientists believe speed has nothing to do with types of muscles (fast 1/2 or slow). Instead, they claim speed is related to thickness of spinal nervs.
If they are right, it's the answer why there's no direct relation between throws and max. results in weight room. -
Our guys use them when they are at 90 or 95 % but that's mainly to get more weight.
I've asked if these (posted here) squat records are with them or without. Best regards!
