Might be because most people associate soccer or throwing a javelin with 
training, but mental capacity with genetic disposition.

My personal presumption is that they all depend on both disposition and 
training. If you are of short growth, chances are you'll never play in 
the top basketball league or become a world-class sprinter, no matter 
how hard you try. On the other hand, even the best genetic disposition 
for mental skill won't make you a grandmaster of chess unless you spend 
many hours on mental exercises each day.
