Volume is often a good distinguisher between world-class and lower tier athletes.
Figure from Sandbakk et al. 2016 comparing world-class and national class XC skiers.
The question is, is there still a direct correlation between volume and performance in high-level homogenous groups?

Why does cross-training help most runners?
Because runners are able to accumulate less volume compared to other world-class endurance athletes in other sports.
