  • Sports Science
    Jul 12 2024

    This week Tom and Mitch hit the ground running with sports science! Mitch dives right into what happens to our bodies when we exercise. From the muscle activity and build-up of lactic acid to kinetics and how we move. Tom takes a scientific approach looking at the underpinnings of biomechanics and sport psychology. How can we study the movements we make and train our mind to improve performance? Then it all breaks down as the boys debate the animal Olympics, who can jump the highest? Who can lift the most? And which species would win a free-for-all battle royale?
