It’s pretty simple elite athletes already are a one in 10^the_power_of_whatever it’s all about gaming the system and gaming the game beyond that.
Better suits, better shoes, high altitude training, pressure chambers, “supplements” these are all in play.
If you aren’t in the top 0.1% or even rarer than that you ain’t gonna win any Olympic medals.
Take Phelps for example the guy is a genetic phenom he produces almost no lactic acid, he is double jointed which allows him to swim butterfly like no other, his proportions are utterly fucked up with having a longer torso with stubby legs, a longer wingspan than his height and huge flipper feet.
His mom might as well had gotten knocked up by a dolphin considering how near perfect he is for swimming.
