Look at this article

According to a comprehensive study conducted by a team of French researchers, study the results of which were published in the scientific journal Frontiers in Physiology, we are currently witnessing a levelling off of human performance.

“Two-thirds of track and field events are progressing more since the 1980s, and this performance should not be improved, on average, more than 0.5 % in the coming decades,” concluded the authors of the study.

FINISH line

In other words, the human body has reached its limits.

Despite what says the olympic motto, we will not be able to run faster, or jump higher, or lift heavier weights.

We arrived at the end of the adventure.

Terminus, everyone goes down.

The only way to smash new records would be dope.

The ball is in your camp, dear viewers.

What do you see when you watch the Olympics or any other sporting competition of the top level ?

Athletes “nature” to give their 100 % and go to the end of their abilities or super-human-doped dropping the records one after the other ?

Because it is all well and good to point the finger at wicked athletes who are doping. But who knows ? These “cheaters” may be that answer to a demand unconscious of the public, they give the spectators what they want to see.

They are at the forefront of the sports spectacle…

Sometimes, I have the impression that spectators of sporting events are like the customers of a restaurant.

The important thing is to have a nice piece of meat in my plate. The way in which you’ll take to knock down, bleed, and charge the beast don’t look at me. I don’t even want to know what method you are using.

All I want is it to feel and that it tastes good.

The open space kitchens ? No problem !

But for abattoirs, we want thick walls, soundproof. And without a glass.

Do whatever it takes to give us our chop daily…

Ditto for the sport.

Inject what it takes, the important thing is that you give us a good show and that you show me screenshots show live great emotions…

The ERA OF SUPERMEN

According to the authors of this study, the human being has reached its maximum size, its maximum strength and its life expectancy maximum.

“What you see is What you get “, as say the Brits. It will not improve.

You want to live longer ? You will have to turn back to nature and “tripatouiller” your genes.

This is what is called ” transhumanism “. Human beings hyper-performing, which does not have humans as the word.

Of cyborgs. Creatures straight out of Blade Runner 2049.

Genetic engineering, pharmacology, and technomédecine will allow us to ” get out “, literally, of humanity, of becoming supermen.

Imagine : workers who do not get tired ever, athletes who push their body further still…

The ultimate dream of capitalism !

Economic growth that is unlimited, always bigger, higher, stronger, richer, more powerful…

Running after our tail to assimilate even more information !

It tempts you ?

Not sure, me…
