sport has always been about extending the potential of the human body, but scientists say that we will soon reach our natural limit. apparently, the fastest a man will ever be able to run 100 metres- without using illicit substances - is just two - tenths of a second faster than the actual world record. so, is there anything we can do to pursue the olimpic ideal "faster, higher, stronger"?. Oris this the end of the story?
some athletes believe that nutritional science can make a difference. however, unless the human heart gets bigger, it is improbable that anyone will ever be able to run amile faster than three minutes. so, miracle diets alone won't help us break through nature's barriers. fortunately, most people agree doping is out of the question.
could technological change, then,be the way forward? we already use carbon fibre instead of wood to make tennis rackets. swimsuits can be make of a fabric that imitates the skin of a shark and footballers will soon have bootsbiomechanically modelled to their feet. all of these innovations improve performance. but perhaps the most exciting prospect for sport is the combination of technology with our heart, muscles and skeleton.this integration of technology and biology - bionics - already exists. athletes like oscar pistorius, who lost his biological legs in childhood, are pioneers among disable people. he competes againstthe able-bodied using carbon-fibre prostheses. further technological advances, like using Bluetooth technology to control robotic arms and legs, mean that there will be more and more athletes likehim in the future. indeed, experts predict that by 2020 the name we use for people like Pistorius will have changed from "disabled" to "super-abled".
nevertheless, not everyone agrees about the use ofbionics in sport. in fact, some critics are already calling this "foul play" and claim that "super athletes", like pistorius, have an unfair advantage. however, others say that the advance of...
