I'm supprised that none of you mentioned the new multi million dollar business of selling defibrillators to gyms. It's a hot thing to get into and if you have connections with gym owners, you might want to think of getting into selling them. You don't just sell 1, you also have classes to teach all gym members how to use it. Many advantages. Not only could it save a life, but the insurance, which is in the thousands per year, goes way down and having a staff who know how to use it is a great selling point for new members. Their HOT around larger citys, but their is a market for them in every gym. I should sell them on the side. Too bad Shadows gym didn't have 1. In a short time they will probably be mandatory.

A month or two ago I was eating in a restaurant, and a guy a few tables over collapsed on the floor and started turning blue after a few minutes. I later found out he had a brain aneurysm and died (true story).

The obvious implication of this, of course, is that people shouldn't eat in restaurants, or they might have brain aneurysms!

This is a really good point. I would think your chances of a "gym death" are about as good as getting struck by lighting, twice.

he probably had a cardiomyopathy or some kind of damage to the heart. It can be from birth or it can be from a virus. Most of us can have it and never know about it because it cant always be detected on a basic EKG. If you ever had a bad flu or virus and just worked through it and didnt' take antibiotics or stopped taking them to early you could have damaged your heart. The heart does not repair damage tissue like other muscles, it just creates scar tissue and gets inflamed and enlarged. But unfortuantely as you age it just keeps spreading until your heart stops. So go out and ask your doc for a treadmill stess test, not just an ekg to see if you have any damage to your heart. THere are medicines and treatments to stop or slow down the spread of the dead tissue.

Hey NYCBULL, Now thats drawing a long bow without knowing all the facts? He could have just simply had a heart attack. Regardless, yours was an informative post.

Cardiomyopathy or hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is the condition that Palumbo's friend Anthony D and also Eric Otero died from, that condition is about 1 in a 100. Most people can get diagnosed by a simple medical (usually picked up by a heart murmur) exam.. If caught early enough their cardiologist can treat the condition and in some cases the condition is reversable.
