You haven\'t seen some Shaolin monks training. The stuff that some of these guys do boggles the mind. My old kung-fu teacher\'s teacher came into our class one day and beat the sh|t out of us and we saw a video and some pics from his school in China. One word: DAMN!!!

That\'s abit off dood... Like all sports, They get better and more advanced as time goes on.. Look at old training for sports. then compare them too todays new way too train. You will find that Todays Athletes will totally kick arse over the old athletes ways... It\'s like that with martial arts. Now that it\'s such a known and practiced thing.. There are A LOT of people that can beat Bruce lee if he was alive today.
Train these days has advanced and training equipment has too.

Not true!  Past athletes did not have the chance to use high-tech materials for equipment.  Heck, some didn\'t use any protective gear!  Some records still aren\'t broken to this day.  And for the ones that were. . . go back in time and give that athlete the new stuff and they\'ll probably blow todays records.  I\'m not saying that we get worse over time, but that to say that the athletic today could always beat the athletic of yesterday isn\'t entirely true.

All off Bruce lee records are broken.. By a man that was trained by the same instructor.

Most world records are broken.. in there Time, the old Athletes were good. But if the athletes of today could go back too there time. We would see who\'s the best.. For example.. say the Aussie cricket team went back in time.. and had a comp against the OLD sir Donald era cricket team.. Who would win?.. I would say todays cricket team.. hell they even say it now. Aussie football. Same thing.. The way they train today is A LOT more harder then how they used too train. Records are set too be broken.. Just as tomorrows athletes will break records todays athletes set.

I\'m not saying EVERY single athlete from the old days are weaker then todays athletes.. I\'m just saying in general, Todays athletes are better then the 70\'s 80\'s era of athletes.

Old athletes make records.. New athletes break them..

. . . because of new equipment and more leisure time (or by making the sport a profession).  ANd new vaccines and such.  The human race isn\'t getting any better, it\'s technology that\'s getting better.

Technology is making the Human Race better and worse at the same time. We live longer, we are stronger, taller, smarter, and faster than our granparents were at our age just like they were compared to their grandparents, this can be attributed to technology(hormones) AND evolution. Its just a given. The human race is slowly evolving but Technology is actually slowing that process down, believe it or not.

Well, I believe that evolution includes the evolution of the mind and what we do to adapt to our surroundings.  So I don\'t quite see how technology is slowing us down.  As I see it, we use technology to change our environment so that we can evolve on other aspects of ourselves.  Nevetheless, I agree.
