It's good that he didn't reach the stage to require surgery, or even stenting. I read that even with stenting, the risk of future heart related disease is not reduced, it just take care the current symptoms.

Yea...and that's for BIL. Stenting gives current issue some years of added insurance nia. Have to actively reduce risk factors.


My mum's side got 2 uncles blockage. That was when my mum went for detailed checkup at NHCS coz she same as you, hypo. For cardiac based symptoms hers is arrythymia and HBP, though HBP might be partially attributable. Only thing found out after all the tests is some calcium at one of the heart valves, otherwise nothing.
ps. My mum even tho with the slight calcium scoring at the valve and already close to 80, cleared for even vigorous exercise but within reason. Not only MICT. Every 2-3 years just go back NHCS test / monitor again.

So at least if wanna talk about genetics, for me is low risk. For me myself i have done 2 stress tests, but only basic stress ECG. Well at least i guess better than those $60 ECG done at GPs. lol No CT calcium score , no CT Coronary Angiopgram, no ultrasound CIMT stuff....which would be the nearly 2k tests i touched on above.
Maybe do overseas ba....quite the cost. But seems like mikemktbt76 did everything except the CT Coronary Angiogram.

Just some quick google.

Sudden Cardiac Arrest During Sports Activity in Middle Age​

Figure 2. Distribution of cardiovascular abnormalities associated with sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) in the 1247 subjects according to sports SCA (top, n=63) and nonsports SCA (bottom; n=1184).

As mentioned, go BKK do. After that can happy ending also, 2-in-1 value.

Besides these causes, there are other trigger factors that largely contribute to sudden cardiac death presenting with sudden dizziness, palpitation and severe chest pain. In athletes older than 35, most sudden cardiac death events are caused by acquired atherosclerotic coronary artery disease (CAD). Many of these diagnoses may not be clinically apparent and may first present with sudden death. Due to the advancements in cardiac technology and diagnosis, the screening program significantly helps to early detect the cardiac abnormalities which are major factors for developing sudden cardiac death, even without the presence of warning signs and symptoms.

People asking to stop smoking as it's bad to your lungs but then it also doesn't mean that they will died young.

WTF....he 51.1kg only.





Previously....

Most elite or pro level athlete are low 50kg for asians. Those japanese pro runners alos this type of weight.

There's still a chance that you will died even so.

Actually I had heard of people doing yearly checkups but still mati.

That's why I don't think we can really control our lifespan.

Healthy doesn't mean you will live longer.

People asking to stop smoking as it's bad to your lungs but then it also doesn't mean that they will died young.

Life's fated.

Probability game. We do all this exercise so we are in the higher probability for longevity. There is always the outliers who won't make it. But if we anyhow don't take care health, the one who lives long are the outliers for this group.
So we decide which group we want to be in. The one whose outliers would not live long, or the other group whose outliers manage to have a long uneventful life.

Above 40 like us, usually is CAD that result in MI (HEart Attack) There was a time prior to Covid in my late 40s, I carry three tabs of aspirin whenever I go out for my run. But it was such a chore that I don't do it anymore , cause the aspirin package will break over time, and expose the content. Then got to replace new ones.

So for those who scare of MI resulting CAD, can carry aspirin. No need to confirm if it's heart attack, just sudden chest discomfort, don't care just take the three tabs.

But I still think if the plaque rupture, doesn't need to be exercise to trigger it. When it's time, it rupture. Mainly early in the morning, so regardless exercise, pang sai in the morning, wake up on the bed, it'll just come.

Lately, I feel that my stamina has been worsening despite me running 2-3x per week. My exercise load has not decreased. I'm not sure if it is related to my latest Covid episode 3-4 months ago. I'm also wondering if I might be "burned out" from exercising. Not sure if taking 1 week break will be beneficial.

Highly possible due to covid. Rather then total rest，why not reduce load and slowly increase back your mileage.

 

[animeonegai]

That is normal. First 1-2 km body is warming up so pace will be slightly slower.

I get faster after 3km. How sia. Like that is normal also ah? First 1km 6.40.. towards last around 5.40.. although only 6km. Normally ppl is run fast then middle peak and end slow one.

 

[winningeleven]

scary.
i see older people likes to chiong fast fast, be it running, jogging or walking in a groups.
why? probably to show off or want to let people know he/she can do it.
but he or she is playing with his/her life.

Thats why my age, i dare not chiong.
I just maintain my pace and if i can catch up with the rest, its bonus.
it not, so be it.
Nothing to be ashamed of.
but alias, ego rule their head.

What age considered as "older" runner?
