petrushkagoogol Posted April 30, 2017 Report Posted April 30, 2017 People with the same heart disease eg) mitral valve prolapse behave similarly (show similar symptoms of fatigue) across racial and ethnic groups. Ironically, people with normal pulse rate and cardiac output do not perform equally well on physical endurance tests. This is a paradox. In an automobile engine, engine failure produces unpredictable results, whereas a good fine-tuned engine, provides a robust driving experience. This seems intuitive. A human being is a kind of machine, then why does this counter-intuitive behavior occur ? :surprise: Quote

People are physiologically the same regardless of race, what differs in regards to physical endurance, aside from general health, is training and lifestyle. Even the performance of fine-tuned automobiles is largely dependent on the driver and how they treat their automobile. If you are a lousy driver, it makes little difference what you drive. Quote
