Genetics and Athleticism: Exploring the Role of DNA in Sports Talent and Training Adaptation

The junction of genetics and athleticism reveals a complex interplay that influences a person's sports potential and training response. This investigation digs into the genetic basis of muscle fiber composition, cardiovascular efficiency, and the larger landscape of training adaptation. As genetics takes the front stage in talent discovery and personalized training regimens, privacy, permission, and the possibility of discrimination become major focus points. The dynamic interaction of nature and nurture adds dimension to the discussion, emphasizing the varied character of athletic development. The ramifications range from precise training and talent optimization to larger social concerns, necessitating the development of strong regulatory frameworks. Navigating this genetic frontier necessitates a careful balance between releasing our DNA's potential and respecting the ideals of justice, diversity, and ethical practice in sports. In essence, the ramifications of genetics in athletics go beyond individual performance and into ethical, social, and scientific realms. Navigating this complicated terrain demands a concerted effort from athletes, academics, legislators, and the sporting community to maximize potential advantages while maintaining ethical standards and protecting sports' integrity and inclusion.

The advent of cinema brought with it its use as a propaganda device with which to transmit ideals and doctrines. As a result, newsreels and cinema documentaries were born with the aim of showing the «most relevant» news of the country and abroad, the former with a shorter duration. In this study, the Spanish NO-DO and «Sucesos Argentinos» are used as primary sources to interpret the images and imaginaries that were projected between 1943 and 1955 on female physical culture. The intention is to understand the official discourse of both political regimes on what Argentinean and Spanish society should be like, especially by questioning those meanings about women. In total, 69 issues of NO-DO and 14 editions of «Sucesos Argentinos» have been found which aim to show female physical culture in this period. The female physical culture shown in both newsreels was aimed at strengthening women’s bodies so that they could carry out their «natural functions» (mother, wife, housewife), as well as highlighting their «inferiority» in relation to men through lower impact activities and the homogenization of bodies through clothing, and the performance of the same exercises in synchrony. And all this in countries with different regimes, but which, in the end, coincided.
