Hello everybody,

The discussion is about medicins and improvement of torso durability under
static load.

There is more: tDCS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcranial_direct-current_stimulation

I made a prediction some years back:

slide 31 onwards.

I wonder if anyone uses tDCS to improve contest performance?


73,
