  • The Naruto run is not bullshit, unless you don’t believe in the other bullshit in the anime. To get to speeds where wind resistance makes any difference, you need to be running in the ballpark of the fastest running humans are capable of. Not the fastest per se, but the same ballpark. And even then, in the real world, it’s only a minimal difference and the Naruto run is far from optimal. To make it necessary you’d have to run faster than any human can, by a very large margin. Maybe even an order of magnitude faster.

    However, in the anime, the ninjas ARE able to run that fast. So if you take into account the inhuman basically “magical” abilities of the in-universe runners, it would definitely benefit them to lean forward that much to reduce wind resistance. In many scenes they are moving so fast they will jump between trees for 4-5 seconds of airtime without losing altitude. That’s fast. Not only would the Naruto run improve air resistance but it would also prevent you from flailing all over the place when you jump.

    So anyway, that’s why you should definitely run like Naruto if you are running track in the 7th grade.

    I didn’t ask why it was posted. I asked about the functionality. You should be able to understand that I didn’t know exactly what a guitar pedal was. Rather than leaving this post with 0 activity and googling it, I thought I’d ask OP to talk about this thing they are clearly proud of.
