Human Skeleton
Bones
What are we know
about human skeleton bones?
You probably don't put a great deal of thought
into the human physical make-up. It's no big deal. Most folks
don't. We tend to leave it for the experts, who research it for
a living. On the other hand, one day I became curious.
I started taking this martial arts class and it
got me thinking about the human skeleton bones and structure.
The way we're designed is truly an amazing thing. Nothing man
can do will ever compare to such complexity. And while we often
consider the human body to be fragile in comparison to various
other creatures, it's actually quite remarkable. There's not a
lot we can't do with the assistance of our minds.
There are 206 bones in the human body. This is
a factoid that everyone should be aware of. And while we're
actually born with close to 100 more, many fuse together as we
develop. But how strong are human skeleton bones? Well,
according to my martial arts teacher, they're comparable to
iron, but less rigid. This is amazing if you ask me. Check out
some of the feats that humans accomplish with their bone
strength and mind power.
I had the pleasure of watching a martial arts
breaking competition live a few years back. These self-defense
experts were breaking everything from 2/4s, to coconuts, to
stacks of cinder blocks. You have to admit that's pretty
remarkable to say the least.
Obviously there is plenty of conditioning and
focus involved. You have to know you can in order to do it.
This just goes to show the impact our minds have on our bodies.
They're stronger in many ways. They allow us to achieve things
some would think impossible.
Don't be afraid to investigate the
human skeleton
bones and intricate make-up of the human
form. The more you understand about the human body, the
more you can do with yours. This knowledge is not
exclusive to doctors and scientists.
It's now available to anyone with Internet
service. You can learn all you want just by clicking a mouse. I
still continue to soak up knowledge from my martial arts
teacher regarding the capabilities of the human body. This
topic never gets old to me. Knowledge IS power!
