Assuming feasibility, THW allow the use of "Limiter Removal" in professional sports.
Human beings are equipped with something called potential. When human muscles exert excessive muscular power. the body suffers damage because of the enormous load on muscle fibers and other parts of the body and the enormous amount of energy consumed. Therefore, in order to prevent damage to muscles and bones, the human brain is equipped with a safety device (limiter) that limits the amount of power that can be consciously exerted. We assume Limiter Removal. It is a technology which is capable of bringing out 100% of human ability during competition.
