Dr. Harjeet Singh, Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon
Humans evolved from sea creatures but we’ve certainly shed a lot of the features meant for effective swimming over the millennia. Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon Dr Harjeet Singh takes a dive into the biophysics of swimming and discusses what makes Katie Ledecky and Michael Phelps the best and fastest swimmers in the world. Dr Mohd Faithal Hassan from the Sports Centre of Universiti Malaya joins the conversation.
