Looking at sports highlights this afternoon, I noticed that everything is faster. Misieroski for the Milwaukee Brewers; UNC lacrosse in the tournament (movement, reflexes, shots - all a little faster than even a few years ago); and T&F has all sorts of records this year, with Cooper Lutkenhaus, Quincy Wilson, and Sam Ruthe still in high school but coming close to world records already.
It's film and coaching. Better equipment is part of it, but breaking down movement to hundredths of a second and a generation's worth of practice putting that knowledge into the relevant motions pays off. Identifying talent and teaching them better habits early is the real deal.
