at 51. Must have some bad genetics. Hope he recovers quickly.

When I hear shite like this about people who work their arse off to be healthy and then suffer from heart issues it's a really bummer. Wtf am I doing busting my arse on the treadmill if I'm going to die on it in ten years?

Probably a heart defect from birth that finally caught up to him.

I tell people all the time being fit, being strong, being shredded, and being healthy are all very different things.
You can be shredded and very unhealthy. You can be kind of tubby and be very fit. And you can be neither fit nor shredded and still be very healthy.

Being fit is diametrically opposed to being healthy.
You can be super fit and have terrible heart and liver health. The overall stress that is chronically placed on your heart will cause it to actually weaken. Heavy cardio training leads to chronic cortisol levels that lead to plaque build up in the coronary arteries. If you are are already predisposed genetically to this then it's a poor combination.
