Learned it from Nery

seen Henry's goal for Redbulls on esportscenter. Holy shit

So that's what they teach MU players to do? Remember when Chicharito did an even worse dive?

@el-choul

I don't know how many remember @Panfilo theory about Mexico (Mexican Fast) being able to produce world class sprinters because of the elevation. This is partly true, but it has more to do with acclimatization and the air density (due to elevation) than anything genetic and lack of proper planning. One of the popular theories in training circles is to train at sea level (air density higher) for anaerobic activity, sprinting, long jump, etc...anything requiring the fast twitch muscles, or requiring explosiveness; and training aerobic at elevation and/or living at elevation.


The point is if managed correctly, it can be a boost to your performance and training. Case in point the 1968 Mexico City Olympics where Bob Beamon broke the Long Jump record which stood for a very long time.
