Hi all.

I am Daniel, a 25 year old Dutch master student in Sports Technology, exploring the practical applications of digital technologies and the interaction of products on the human body (primarily in the sports area). Combining my interest in physics, human anatomy, sports and technology within my educational (and professional) career, along with a self-study on psychology, I am able to get a broad understanding of how the human body interacts with the (digital) world. I would like to translate my knowledge into simple yet effective tips and tricks to optimise your daily and working life, as content for you on Steemit! (exclusively)



With a background in Human Kinetic Technology (technical human movement sciences), I have been able to get a great medical knowledge base in anatomy, physiology, biomechanics etc., as well as technical knowledge in programming, biometrics (measuring on the human body) and product design (3D design and printing) to understand both spectrums to find the optimal interaction between them. I don't have to educate most of you on technology, though I will highlight these aspects of course, but on the human body side I find most people don't know how their own body exactly works. As one of my former teachers once said:

"You need to feel praised to get to know how your own body is built up and functions. 98% of the people on the planet has no idea! Use this knowledge to your advance and educate others to your desire."

A summary & sneak peak of my upcoming content

Driving a car to work, sitting 8 hours a day to watch a monitor and sit/lay on a couch binge-watching Netflix each night... That is not what our body is build for! We are uniquely shaped animals optimised to move and exercise (to hunt for food to survive, many many years ago) and if we don't use its functionality to its potential, we will (subconscious) feel bad physically and mentally.

Digital technology is improving massively this century, while the human body progresses very conservatively and in the current era we have reached a point where technology (and society) is dictating our (human) lives. Being a bit more conscious of ourselves, even in small decisions in life, can help a lot!

Posts on Steemit

Through practical examples, simple explanations of physiological processes and highlighting interesting products/apps to use to your advantage, along with some humor/sarcasm here and there, I would like to take you on my journey: 'Be a human, not a machine!'.

My educational posts will put the primary focus on our body rather than technology, to provide an insight how to optimise our (busy) daily lives, use technology to our advantage, be more productive and become an all round better human!
(And for all crypto people out there, perhaps a better trader as well! I am not responsible for your actions in any kind, though I might have my share in positive results ;) )



I will mainly focus my content on this project, but as an experienced runner, overall sports & tech enthusiast and a (semi-professional) photographer, you might see some of these things popping by at some point. For this project, I will try to post articles once or twice a week on optimal times for workers (EU: 17.00h, UK: 16.00h, US: San Francisco 08.00h (PST), New York 11.00h (EST))

If you feel eager to learn more about me, my future content and yourself (is that possible? Yes, it is! :)), please follow me and leave a comment to say hi.
If you are inspired, maybe you could help me on a new project name. "Be a human, not a machine!" is a bit long, whereas abbreviated "BAH,NAM!" sounds like an Asian dish... There might be a small reward for the top pick! :)

Kind regards.
Daniel

p.s. I wish I would have more time to put into Steemit, but I am currently working on my master thesis at Adidas HQ in Germany. The topic is on the development of the next generation (of individualised) running shoes, some top secret stuff:
