Book ID/图书代码： 11701212B54368

English Summary/英文概要： During the 2010 Olympic Games in Vancouver, Dr. Greg Wells captivated millions of viewers as the sport science analyst during Olympic broadcasts. His SUPERBODIES segments were some of the most popular features of the Olympic broadcast and 13 new SUPERBODIES segments will air internationally during the 2012 Summer Olympics in London.

SUPERBODIES is a fascinating exploration of the science of the human body in extreme athletic conditions that demonstrates how the reader can apply these examples to improve their own performance and health. Dr. Wells takes the reader on an exciting journey through the human body, to show how genetics and DNA, the brain, muscles, lungs, heart, and blood all work together to create optimal health and brilliant performance.

How is it possible for Usain Bolt to power down the track at such a speed that he is almost quite literally flying: his feet touching the ground for a total of less than 2 seconds during his record-shattering run? Dr. Wells can explain it and tell us how the science applies to us, even if we won’t ever run 100m in 9.59 seconds.

Readers will learn to apply these physical adaptations to the challenges faced in their own lives, leading to improvements in overall health and athletic performance. SUPERBODIES will offer both real insight into the latest science of the human body, and an understanding of how Dr. Wells’ research has revolutionized our view of physical potential. The advice to readers applies this science, using examples of world-class athletes, to our everyday lives.
