The hopping dance practice can run at a speed of 64 km / h

According to scientists, the process of hopping dance stork increases the muscle strength of the legs to about 1.5 to 2 times.

The current record run rate is 45 km / h, set by 'Jamaican lightning', Usain Bolt at the 2009 World Athletics Championships, held in Berlin, Germany. Usain Bolt's achievement not only shocked the high performance sports, but also made scientists rethink conclusions about people.

In the past, sports physicists said that the speed limit was due to the fact that human feet could not exert a force of more than 4.45 kN on the ground, thus not creating the necessary momentum to overcome the "barrier." biological'.

Athlete athlete Usain Bolt was named "Jamaican lightning".

However, US scientists, point out, if persevering practice to stretch muscle fibers, increase the power for running steps, people can run at a speed of 64 km / h. To come to the conclusion, the scientists carried out the tests, where the athletes practiced rehearsing the forward and backward exercises.

According to scientists, this training process increases the muscle strength of the leg up about 1.5-2 times. Thereby, increasing the force of the foot on the ground by 30%, and reducing the landing time of the foot when running down to less than 1/10 second, factors that have an important impact on the running speed.

New research is published in the journal Applied Physiology of January 2010. In particular, the authors also proposed to promote research and application of biological techniques and 'mechanization' of skeleton as measures to help people break biological barriers in sports.
