Anthropomaximology

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Anthropomaximology is the teaching developed in the USSR to maximize the physical, intellectual and sensory performance of humans. Sport is used here as a role model and field of experimentation, even if it is also about the performance of soldiers , cosmonauts , dancers , but also scientists. The methods were also used in the GDR . Some of the methods used here (e.g. the use of testosterone ) are considered doping in sport , but are required to improve the soldier's physical performance. The neuro-enhancers tested here are now also used by scientists in the West.
