Some athletes like runners or sprinters may train by attaching a small parachute to their upper body. The parachute opens behind them as they run, resulting in a drag force acting on the athlete. Such athletes would never use this in actual competition, though. Explain how using a parachute like this might make an athlete stronger and why they wouldn’t actually use the parachute during a competition even though they trained with it.
