Tyler,
I agree totally with you that the perception (or reality) of someone else's genetic advantage is a ridiculous thing to stop anyone from going for it "to the max" My observation is that hard work is always much more important than natural gifts. That said, genetics does play a role and it seems unreasonalbe to ignore that fact. For example, your lungs are considerably larger than mine. That represents an advantage, at least a portion of which is almost certainly geneticly influenced. I may be able to overcome that advantage if I work harder than you, but that doesn't affect the reality of advantage in that one, narrow (but significant) factor.
Speaking of stretch/packing affecting VC, I have been keeping track of my VC over the last few months while stretch/packing. It sees to be increasing. Has anyone kept any records to show progressive increase in VC over time? Results?
