Nadeem broke OR 2x, it's not a fluke. He has found a way to break into 90+ easily, and will perfect it.
Even if 10% probability to land ~92, it effectively means he is going to get gold in every 2nd completion.
Neeraj pb is less than that, he needs to change his strategy and somehow needs to break into ~92 as well. 89 and 92; 3m is A LOT.

Nadeem has the back-twister technique, Neeraj has the forward momentum fallover technique. This means that you will see at point of release, Nadeem rotates his back a lot more, while Neeraj does the top-of-toe release, with foward momentum usually making him fall over.

There are pros and cons to both techniques : the back-twister technique lets you get closer to the foul line when releasing, while the fall-over technique you are always 1-1.5m behind the foul line at release, since you need space to fall over and not foul.
However, the fallover technique is a lot more consistent and less injury prone than the back-twister technique, is why its the most common technique in the field. When you rely on back-twister technique, you end up with disc damage over time as that is a lot of tortion force on the spine, the one type of force the spine is the worst at dealing with.
Also, the back-twister technique uses less body momentum but far more core muscle & upper body strength, which means, there is bigger variance in your best day and worst day performance ( as you rely less on nearly constant momentum force).

This is why Neeraj i think will be a bigger threat in javelin competitions than Arshad, unless Arshad really is that much stronger and has unlocked some secret to holding the javelin to regularly break 90m mark.
PBs matter less in javelin/hammer/discuss/shot-put etc type of throwing sports than what your average throw is.
Because even the best javelin throwers end up with 7-8m difference between their season's best and season's worst competitive throws.

Neeraj is dominant in the sport because he almost never misses the 85m mark in medal rounds of where he participates. In fact, going all the way to 2017, which is like 7 years, the dude has hit below 85m in medal round only once. Ie, a 9-1 record in last 10 major events for throwing 85m+.
No other javeliner has even done this 5 times in the same time period,fyi. (Arshad Nadeem is that guy, fyi).
Basically, Neeraj is the djokovic of the javelin field. You know that if he is present, you will have to go 85m+, most likely 86m+ to win. Day in, day out, thats not an easy task, Because if you are having an off day ( slightest of niggles etc), you can easily drop down in the low 80s ( 81-84m mark) in javelin.
Which means that he is always the guy to beat in the last few events he's played and he will remain so, unless age or fitness changes. And that is why, he is by far the most winning javelliner since 2018. Thats six years and counting, for anyone keeping score.
Yes, he got ' out-feded' in this Olympics. Happens. But reality is, day in-day out, he is the only one who's gonna be in #1-#2 spot in the field and onus is on YOU to match him that day and some days you will match him, but over time, he will win more than anyone else and so far, he has in the period he's been top quality.

Neeraj has to struggle with his diet too. This obsession of hindoo with all the bullshit non violence about non vegetarian diet while athletes around the world are protein maxing as much as possible.

Neeraj switched to non veg later but still has guilt in his mind. This guilt is what hampers our training and diet.

is he on veg diet

He switched to non veg but in his interview in beerbiceps, you can clearly see his guilt and then said that he doesn't eat meat that much.

Your post would have made sense if any other country had taken gold. But pak?

no doubt but comnsuming enough protein in your growth period is damn ! important too its a factor which we all forget
thats why i vouch for people below 18 to eat non veg (at least egg) regularly veg diets lack protein profile and even milk based food has its own problems

This is fully misleading than protein can only be get in numbers from non veg diet, FYI I was able to recover my protein levels from all time low, and that was extreme low literally to more than needed in a average person in just months, without any protein supplements or medicines. So even for many athletes who were vegetarian were able to perform better and totally dominate their fields.

 

[Taipan]

90+ is a world record. No one is able to throw nowadays.
Neeraj is not at fault

World record is 98+, Nadim set Olympics record (92.97), previous Olympic champion rohler's pb was 93+ and he used to regularly cross 90 but suffered a back injury bf4 previous Olympics and has been out since ,there was one more guy with 90+ who retired bf4 previous Olympics and Weber got injured in his first throw, so last time luck favoured Neeraj heavily.
Neeraj is consistent with his throws and he has improved to 89 now, but I have watched Nadeem since 5 or so years and believe me he can go even further than 92.97, his run up is shit and his throw look casual but release is so quick and he throws far.

 

[haldilal]

that rifle guy swapnil didn't get any promotion for 9 yrs until he won a bronze this olympics.

FYI his parents spend 1.5 lakhs Per month and motareged everything to fund it.

 

[COLDHEARTED AVIATOR]

I am not putting Neeraj down but i honestly doubt he can go beyond 92.

Nadeem looks like he has good future.

 

[haldilal]

Here is something for you :-

Ukraine - no money- most of the medal potential dead - medals won = 10(3 gold,3 silver,4 bronze)

Iran - globally sanctioned-no money for proper training or sports- medals won = 6(2 gold,2 silver,2 bronze)

St Lucia - has a population of an Indian village - medals won =2 (1 gold and 1 silver)

Cuba - barely has money to pay salaries to government employees,let alone fund an Olympic team ,medals won = 6 ( 2 gold,1 silver,3 bronze)

North Korea - let alone people, even their players are malnourished, medals won = 6( 2 silver,4 bronze)


So you can very well analyze the scale of our underperformance.That 900 crore, had it been utilized properly would have been more than enough to get multiple gold and silver medals.

And most of the countries will spend millions of dollars on there athelets to keep their appearance in Olympics rather than to keep feeding it's populations. NK and Iran have illegal source to International currency to fund their nuclear and other activities so it's downstairs even suprises that they can't fund their athelets.

OK! So, you mean to say, a Pakistani islamist is again going to be pain in ass for us.
Let me tell you one thing, in sports whenever it has been India vs Pakistan, Pakistan may have always started as a win against us but has always lost against us at the end.

That CHINA TRAINED JIHADI might have gotten extra China training this time from the WUMAO land, everyone in the world knows that India was trying to get a gold from javelin, it's no doubt paikhanastan and chowmeins didn't know this, they trained this jihadi for this game only, so that to hit us hard.

This is what happens when you depend on one poor guy for a gold everytime. This is not conspiracy theory everyone know how China think and it's dog Pakistan obsession with everything India.

But, let me remind you too, Neeraj might be getting "good job, Neeraj", "excellent, Neeraj", but nobody likes loosing to a JIHADI GOAT HUMPING Terrorist nation at all here. It has hit us deep and we should always remember those soldiers words in 2003 world cup to Saurav Ganguly "loose to anyone but not to Pakistan.", that galvanized Dada, let's hope this also galvanize Neeraj.

Let me tell you all, this time it has been.
China trained athlete 1 vs Pathetic "Indian PAISA TOH LAGAYA HAMNE and meat nahi khayega toh kaise hoga" mindset 0.

what India need is to take Olympics like a war, because every nation definitely that China do take it.

NK and Iran have illegal source to International currency to fund their nuclear and other activities so it's downstairs even suprises that they can't fund their athelets.

There is a reason why countries spend so lavishly on the games. It's because winning a medal not only unites the country like never before but adds immensely to the country's soft power.

Soft power is as important as hard power.Take for example, Iran, they are largely seen as a ferocious people,this image is largely built upon their dominance in sports like Wrestling, weightlifting, Taekwondo, and karate. Australians are largely perceived as adventurous and sporty people.This is because they are just good at almost all sports.

Unfortunately for us,we don't have a positive image abroad. We are seen as lethargic,unfit, and Ineptitude people.Our lack of Olympic medals despite being home to 18% of the world's population has majorly created this perception.

Arre, haldi everyone knows the potential of vegetarian proteins diets nobody can beat soyabean there, the towering full veg wrestlers of akharas, everyone know it.

The thing is player internal thinking, India this time totally lost because of PLAYERS DEFEATIST MINDSET, no conditional coach can do anything here.

These type of TOTAL DOMINATION things must come from inside. In India TOTAL DOMINATION is treated with BHAV KHA raha hai terms. Yes, I am talking about neighborhood gullies from where every Indian athelete of this olympics might have come.

It's too much for a nation like us,many of them here too in this forum, who carry the legacy of BROWN SEPOY, who seeks validation of everything from gora and world.

If Neeraj didn't like non-veg, if it hurted him from inside, then why they did it to him.
Mind you, this is the most dangerous thing you can do to a person, hurt his inner pride, this is how jihadis and angrej used to do destroy Hindus moral standing too in past.

Isn't then this become the responsibility of diet coaches to take this as a challenge and come with a full protein and carb rich veg diet, why didn't they do that?

Neeraj like anybody should stick to his core and prepare like any Indian should do against a Pakistani.
The real place of a Pakistani is below India.
You show BHAI CHARA to these jihadis they will start in their mind with GHAZWA-E-HIND stupidity.
