Had this argument on /sp and completely agree with you. If it's a race, and the goal is to go from point a to point b as fact as possible, and freestyle is *always* the fastest style why the frick do the other strokes even exist?
People keep telling me it's because some people are better at the other strokes but so fricking what. If some guy's really good at running backwards we don't create a separate 100 meter dash just so he can get a medal.
There are 4 different strokes used in competitive swimming that move through the water in different ways and each require a lot of time to master. The freestyle race isn't a stroke it's actually a category meaning you can swim in whatever way you want but obviously the fastest way is the front crawl or what everyone calls freestyle.
The other categories exist because the difference in technique and power in the strokes is big enough to warrant their own category, same as racewalking.
The difference is the technique and by extension different muscle groups used, also each stroke has its own history and development if you want to get into it, running is running it literally can't get any different thats why the only variation is racewalking. Why does powerlifting include squats and bench press? If the goal is to move the most amount of weight then clearly deadlift should only matter. Why does Olympic lifting include the snatch when the clean and jerk moves the most amount of weight.

>He is THE most dominant Olympic athlete of all time. 8 gold medals in one Olympics, the next 9/10 most dominant olympians only have 9/8 TOTAL. >Phelps? 23 total golds.
Also let me help you out >"If freestyle is the fastest style"
front crawl is the fastest stroke and freestyle is the only event you can swim it. You can swim any other stroke in a freestyle event. There is also other stroke specific races that you can only do that stroke.
So phelps is the most dominant athlete in swimming for decades at all disciplines and that isnt good enough for people because you dont understand the sport
Yea he's good but I mean it's swimming. There's not a defense. He's not physically dominating/mogging someone. He's got dedication and motivation but it's hard to rank a swimmer over contact sports in the greatest athlete of all time competition.
Decathlon by definition are the greatest athletes, literally their title are the greatest athlete of all time.
Decathlon athletes might be the best by being very high level in several sports where strength power and endurance are needed, definitely the most well rounded.
Shot put athletes imo are the most powerful, they are huge guys with immense strength, power, speed, coordination and agility.
Oly weightlifters have the most raw strength as it's literally lifting the most amount possible above their head with power and control.
Gymnast, specifically on rings have the most body control, what they do on the rings is simply mind-blowing and in some ways more impressive than what anyone else can do.
100 meter sprinters are called the fastest man alive.
By definition is decathlon athletes but to me those 5 sports are the pinacle of athletic performance.
Decathlon includes 100m sprints, 400m sprints, 1500m runs, hurdle race, long jump, high jump , pole vault, shot put, javelin throw and discuss throw.
They literally do the majority of the track and field events you stupid fricking dyels homie.
Eurasian White Islam is the future of Europe.

The Whites will bleach the Nafris and some of the mixed SSA populations, then basically they will all look like light-skinned muslims like the Spaniards.
Add to that the Eastern immigration like Albanians, Polish, etc and it will end up looking like Chechnya tier Balkan.

He plays the least physically demanding position after kicker/punter and he doesn’t even have the greatest arm. Brady is a great, but from a pure athlete perspective, there are better options

also nicklaus and woods have better golf minds than gretzky has a hockey mind
>gretzky maybe the best hockey mind but like 20 people were better at hockey
That doesn't mean anything and makes you sound moronic
He is probably the most dominate player in any sport when compared to his peers
All you have to do is hand the ball to the running back or throw to a WR without worry about getting hit. If you’ve ever looked at real football footage a lot of guys are literally afraid of getting hit so much so where they will jump backwards from a guy coming at them even after they got rid of the ball so they won’t be tackled. They will literally jump from a d-end coming within 10 feet of them. Most QB’s would shit their pants if they actually had to play on the line
If I was to pick a greatest athlete of all time it would be Jim Marshall.
He was literally 41 years old when he left the NFL and in that entire time he was playing as a d-end which is arguably one of the hardest positions to play. And he did that all the way until he was 41. Playing as a QB compared to playing on the line is so different in terms of physicality that they might as well be classified as different sports.
Crazy shoes and a whole team of pace setters for him to draft behind. Don't get me wrong it's a fricking insane achievement but there is a reason he didn't break the official world record
God, what has happened to armwrestling. It used to be such a beautiful, technical sport. Now it's just a pissing contest to see who can take more peds and not die. John will forever be the goat in my eyes even though I know Levan is better.
Hakuho's sumo dominance probably puts him in the best athlete discussion if you are judging by reign of dominance over time relative to the difficulty of the support.
Lot of the stuff about chamberlain is pure myth. Look at his build. He was an absolutely amazing athlete but if you think picrelated could bench even 315 with the absurdly long arms and thin build there’s no sugarcoating it youre fricking stupids. Absolutely amazing speed and jumping ability for his height though. Arnold has always said what he thought would thought would bring him the most benefit not what he actually believed
People get fricking weird about tall guys bench pressing because everyone suddenly becomes an kinesiology expert who knows all about anatomical fulcrums or whatever but if you told me older non-stringbean Wilt could bench 400 I'd believe it. His arms don't look as big as Arnold's proportionately but that's misleading because "normal" sized arms on a guy who's 7'2 are still fricking huge.
I mean, look at that picture. Andre is heavier, but he's not really much *bigger* and I'm guessing nobody thinks he couldn't bench 3-400 easily. Everybody who ever had anything to do with Wilt says his strength was superhuman. I don't give a frick how long his arms are, don't tell me that dude's stuck on a like a 2 plate max.
Bruh there's people lighter and thinner than him who can bench 315. Hell, I've seen Deontay Wilder bench 315. Wilt could definitely bench 315. You're probably just weak and have no concept of how strong some people actually are. There's 16 year olds that bench 315 lol.
Greatest of all time for sure. I doubt anyone can surpass him. And I loved that he wasnt the biggest, or fastest, or strongest, but he was absolutely the best. A true Yokozuna.

half of those are for swimming tho, and swimming is boring as frick
I would say, as far as strength sports go, that Lasha Talakhadze is the goat. He’s won every gold medal at the world championships since 2017, every gold at the Europan championships since 2016 and two Olympic medals. He is also so dominant that his closest competitor lifts 35kg less than him.
Best Athelete would be someone who excells in the respective fields, past or present, number one with no close second. The larger the gap between number one and the rest, the better the athlete. Lance Armstrong, Roger federer, Tiger Woods etc
is federer the uncontested GOAT of tennis? i thought there were like 3 guys in competition for that spot. not clear cut as it would be for woods, gretzky, armstrong, etc.
Federer isn’t even considered the goat, it’s nadal and it’s very close with 1-2 guys who might catch him. Tiger was the most dominant golfer of all time but because of various problems probably is not the gait because he hasn’t won enough. For a time though the pace he was setting was incredible.
Tom Brady is like an anime protagonist. He’s not the biggest, not the strongest, he’s not fast and he’s not super icky with it. He’s just smart and he works hard
More or less true but anyone who has every played ball knows QB is not only the hardest position on the field but it is the most important single position on the whole team.
I would say it is probably the most stressful and mentally taxing position in all of sports. But in terms of pure athleticism- not really.

What sport are you going to add next to cater to your mutt inclinations? Electric scooter races? Eating competitions? Let's see that happen.
All that cope, face it Chang your people aren’t athletic, how come out of a billion people you can’t qualify for the World Cup
Thats some salty seethe there chang. Maybe if your people stopped eating insects and bats for protein they could improve their performance. Maybe grow taller than 5'1. Its just a shame you have such a shit gene pool.
>kendo
half of those are for swimming tho, and swimming is boring as frick
The majority of top athletes and country by most gold medals are of either of slavic or nordic descent
> Greatest athlete of all time
Pudzianowski
brock lesnar called himself a once in a generational athletic talent so i'm inclined to go with him
tyler1
Hulk hogan
greatest qb to ever play the game
Yeah it would of been one thing if the guy leading the protests was good but this clown was fricking terrible.
Noone posted the greatest statistical outlier of all time.
Don Bradman?
The actual GOAT.
Bingo, it's actually stupid how much he mogs every other batsman in cricket. Second best has like 60% of his average
I would say, as far as strength sports go, that Lasha Talakhadze is the goat. He’s won every gold medal at the world championships since 2017, every gold at the Europan championships since 2016 and two Olympic medals. He is also so dominant that his closest competitor lifts 35kg less than him.
Best Athelete would be someone who excells in the respective fields, past or present, number one with no close second. The larger the gap between number one and the rest, the better the athlete. Lance Armstrong, Roger federer, Tiger Woods etc
is federer the uncontested GOAT of tennis? i thought there were like 3 guys in competition for that spot. not clear cut as it would be for woods, gretzky, armstrong, etc.
>clear cut as it would be for woods
you don't know Jack
Federer isn’t even considered the goat, it’s nadal and it’s very close with 1-2 guys who might catch him. Tiger was the most dominant golfer of all time but because of various problems probably is not the gait because he hasn’t won enough. For a time though the pace he was setting was incredible.

In terms of straight up being better at the sport than anyone else I gotta go with Gretzky, have you seen his records, 2nd place isn't even close.

Tom Brady is like an anime protagonist. He’s not the biggest, not the strongest, he’s not fast and he’s not super icky with it. He’s just smart and he works hard
More or less true but anyone who has every played ball knows QB is not only the hardest position on the field but it is the most important single position on the whole team.
I would say it is probably the most stressful and mentally taxing position in all of sports. But in terms of pure athleticism- not really.
greatest physical ability of all time is wilt chamberlain
greatest mindset and skill is gretzky
greatest compromise is jordan
zyndrunas savickas
The GOAT of strength sports without question.
wilt is moronicly overrated
Based. The only actual goat player who isn't overrated and proved it in the modern era is LeBron. Everyone else played against car salesmen and have horribly inflated records.
best athlete i've seen in my lifetime, and I don't even like rugby
