Could You Outperform a Racehorse?

Could You Outperform a Racehorse?
Event Details

Do you think you could outperform a racehorse? In this session you will look at the differences between the horse and the human heart and discover if your heart could power a horse to win a race. Using some of the latest technologies available you will assess a racehorse’s movement and stride length to compare to your own. You will discover how fitness can improve physical performance.

With a focus on GCSE Double Award Science, this session will cover areas of biology in terms of the structure, function and adaptability of the heart. You will also touch on topics within the Physics module when assessing how speed, force, weight and pressure affect everyday movements.
