Animals get that trait for free which is why chimps appear stronger than people. In rare circumstances that brainwave is also accessable to humans. There are recorded instances of mothers lifting heavy objects like cars to save their children but were unable to repeat the act for reporters. In desperate enough times the pain sensors turn off and you can literally shatter yourself but have access to all your power.
