Özet

Genetic features (genome) to be passed down from generation to generation are encoded in DNA sequences. The construction of DNA and the placement of sequences differ from individual to individual. The differences between individuals cause different levels of responses to internal and external stimuli (training loads, training adaptation, environmental adaptation, diet type, composition of muscle fibers, blood pressure level, etc.). To date, only 20 of the more than 200 genes predicted to be associated with athletic performance are thought to affect high-level athletic performance. It has been observed that genetic characteristics are significantly affected by factors arising from environmental interactions and lifestyle, and that physical performance differences between individuals are directly related to exercise or lifestyle. So many foreign factors come together on a sports event, even if one competitor is considered superior to another, the result is almost always doubtful. It is obvious that ideal genes probably drive an athlete to greatness, and at the same time, these good genes do not guarantee a result.
