What makes you a top athlete: science, training or talent?
Manage episode 445079114 series 2456057
Are you a gazelle or a grizzly bear when you run? The bounce in your step defines whether you're a stronger sprinter or long-distance runner — and choosing the right sport for your biomechanics determines whether you can get to the top of the podium. Find out more about the secret weapon of biomechanics, the theory of optimal speed control within racing endurance, and how performance psychology has an impact both on and off the track.
The Science of Sport was presented at the York Festival of Ideas. The Festival is led by the University of York, UK.
