Do Not Go To Gym – U Will Have Heart Attack ??

When the country woke up with news of one other shocking news of a heart attack, this time of the famous Indian comedian, Mr. Raju Srivastava, the query again, on everyone’s mind was, what the hell is going on.

Why are people getting heart attacks so often? Though Raju Srivastava is nearly 60, and but we now have seen the phenomena rising in much younger population, not only in India, but all over the world.

Though I actually have covered this aspect intimately earlier, but within the last couple of years, a brand new baseless scare is being spread, because the probable reason for heart attack. That is your ‘gym’.

Many children have messaged me that their parents are stopping them, and even scolding them, from going to the gym. Because they think that gym is the place where heart attacks occur.

Where did this scare originate from? As usual, from our amazing masala media and the social media platforms. When you have got headlines like these: what’s going to you expect the response of general public to be?

People often consider, that if it’s in a news channel, or news website, it will routinely be true. Remember one thing, the aim of stories channels is to indicate you the news, not the reality. Read it again.

News channels work on the concept of negativity bias, i.e. more negative and sensational the news, higher could be the views. Aim will not be to go deep into the topic, and do proper evidence-based research, but so as to add fuel to the hearth.

But after we come to exercise, physical inactivity & obesity is certainly one of the leading risk aspects for developing Coronary Heart/Artery Disease. And exercise which incorporates endurance and strength training, is the main suggestion of each medical body on the earth, which incorporates, European Society of Cardiology, US NIH, UK NHS, Indian Medical Associationand lots of more.

On the opposite hand, there’s a complete disconnect between the headlines of the news, and the content it actually presents. In most cases, the one authentic source of knowledge related to health with these media portals are doctors. Rarely have I seen any news channel or website giving research studies or related evidences, especially in India.

And even the doctors, have told clearly in these related news articles, that exercise is must for cardiac health, which incorporates each endurance and strength training. The only advice will not be to suddenly go overboard in case you haven’t done workouts before.

Now, anyone who has been exercising for a while, knows a straightforward fact, which you could’t just go overboard like that. Your muscles and joints aren’t ready. Your neuromuscular efficiency is just too low. The workouts are at all times progressive. Which means, you mostly start small and step by step increase your intensity and volume, over weeks and months. This is true for any sort of exercise components, be it strength training or endurance work.

On the opposite hand, there absolutely no evidence that these actors got heart attack, because they were understanding on a selected intensity. Had that been the case, half of the world population would have been extinct, specially sportsmen, soldiers, farmers, labourers and lots of more.

Also, what in regards to the other major risk aspects, that are primarily accountable for heart attacks, that are especially prevalent in individuals with high stress jobs, especially within the cities.

Most actors and actresses are under tremendous stress not only because of work, but uncertainty of their careers. Overnight shoots, continuing for days together, without rest. The pressure to keep up a certain sort of physique or look, to be in public. Lack of sleep, improper eating habits, an excessive amount of dependence on stimulants, excessive smoking and drinking, underlying medical conditions (which they’re unaware of), are a number of the many reasons which might result in heart problems.

If we take Raju Srivastava’s case, he had a heart attack, while running on a treadmill, and will have had the identical, if running outside. The same is with weight training. The place where you do exercise, has nothing to do with heart attacks.

On top of that, when the doctors went through the reports of Raju Srivastava’s past medical conditions, they found that, he had already been a heart patient. Here is what the reports revealed:

“According to Raju Srivastava’s MRI report, doctors found that the nerves in his brain were suppressed. It was also revealed that 9 stents were already placed for the comedian. During the angiography, the doctors also discovered that there was a 100% block.”

So, dear parents, please read and understand a subject, before you implement your flawed ideas on your kids. Parents who’ve been exercising themselves, won’t ever say any such thing, or prevent anyone from going to gym or exercising.
