As their bone density is useful for boxing, it is useless for swimming.

As their bone density is useful for boxing, it is useless for swimming.

Their Spirometry is lower than whites as well. Plus, they tend to be fat, weak, and lazy.

Blacks suck at swimming because of lower lung spirometry and higher peak bone mass.

1) Heredity and being female are two key factors identifying those
individuals at risk for the development of osteoporosis. Hereditary risk
factors include race: Notably, Caucasians and Asians are characterized
by low peak bone mass at maturity. Caucasian women, particularly those
of northern European ancestry, experience the highest incidence of
osteoporosis-related bone fracture. American women of African heritage are characterized by the highest peak bone mass and
lowest incidence of osteoporotic fracture, despite the fact that they
have low calcium intake.

Main Entry: spi·rom·e·try
Pronunciation: -&-trE
Function: noun
Inflected Form: plural -tries
: measurement by means of a spirometer of the air entering and leaving the
lungs

A. "Normal" Spirometry Lung function increases rapidly with growth during
childhood and adolescence, reaches a peak sometime between the ages of 18
and 35, and then begins to slowly decline, even in healthy persons (29).
Persons who grow relatively tall also have relatively large lungs when
compared to those who are shorter in stature. Women on average, have lungs
that are about 20% smaller than men of the same height and age (30). For a
given standing height, African-American men, on the average, have longer
legs than Caucasian men, and a correspondingly shorter trunk size; and
therefore slightly smaller lungs (29,31,32,33) explaining most of the
differences between predicted values for Caucasian and African-American men.
All of the above factors mean that to optimally interpret spirometry results
(observed values), you must first know the employee=s age, height, gender,
and race or ethnicity

Race may play an important role in determining a person's obesity and fitness levels, shows a new study in the December issue of CHEST, the peer-reviewed journal of the American College of Chest Physicians (ACCP).

The study found that African-American patients had a higher level of obesity and a lower exercise capacity compared to Caucasian patients, with the most pronounced difference found between African-American and Caucasian males.

"There is a popular belief among the lay public and by many clinicians that African-Americans are more fit than Caucasian patients. However, our findings suggest this is not the case," said Carl J. Lavie, MD, Ochsner Clinic Foundation, New Orleans, LA. "Despite being older, Caucasian patients in our study had significantly higher exercise capacities and lower obesity levels than African-Americans, suggesting that some races may be more susceptible to increases in weight and decreases in fitness levels."

That explains why you can't knock em out.You have to go to the body.

Blacks can't/don't swim because they're scared of the water. I'd guess a genetic fear of water became imprinted into them by the croc.
