World champion swimmer dies at 26 after having massive heart attack

[Marty Champions]

This is what i read,might be a valid point.


"Ban isotonic drinks, red bull and their variations. The ingredients widen heart arteries during training or game play, forcing more blood through the valves, which is causing erratic heart beats which in some cases are leading to cardiac arrest. They call it SADS so as the sponsors dont get sued - this poison was not in the sports arena 10 to 15 years ago, players did not swallow this much by the liter. Today they are dropping like flies from the ages of 12 upwards, and if checked, all affected players will be revealed to have been consuming this cocktail to enhance energy levels."

 

This is False, these stimulants squeeze down on heart valves, secreting extra sugars from the pancreas and fats in blood (giving the extra energy effect), wich leads to a bad disposition of not enough pathway for blood flow and blood being too thick without the correct balance of oxygen and triglicerides

not all athletes use you fool.

talking about morons... look who s opening his stupid mouth. You deserve to be beaten to death for being so fucking retarded.

 these fuckers use designer steroids , all of them. How do you think they perform things less than 0.0000000000000000000000 0001% of humans can do.

that's quite a stretch there, mate  

i'd bet there's more that don't use than those what do.

Is this like the god position? You say something and it remains true until proven otherwise? This is argumenting from not-knowing (ignorance).

If you have no idea, just like us, what professionals use, then do not make a statement being 100% sure of anything. Goes for everybody.

We can only look at the situation and reasonably guess the questionmark based on surrounding evidence. The surrounding evidence is that most if not ALL professional sportsmen use PED's. Therefore a logical step would be to say 'I think most if not all professional sportspeople use PED's, BUT without sufficient knowledge I cannot be certain of this'.

Where there is money, history has shown that people dependent of that money (sportsmen in this case) will cheat and lie to get ahead. Therefore the preliminary assumption would be to say most use, other then most dont use

well we'll never be able to proof it either way. i'll always maintain that most british athletes don't use peds. not because of any moral superiority. but because of stringent testing and national embarrassment if caught.

there's just no way that jessica ennis cheats... no way !

[bradistani]

haha you are delusional. Sorry to say that but in this case you really are. Testing does not mean shit.

The fact sportmen are 'clean' means only they are very good at evading and cheating TESTS and NOT that they are clean.

If a test is a way of validating ones status, then cheating itself is not the problem....but cheating the test, as the test is a measure of being clean.

i just prefer to have a little faith in people. you're implying that more or less every single athlete cheats. pretty sad really.

let's look at british sprinter, dwain chambers. a cheat who got caught.

he's just had his liftime olympics ban overturned in court so now he's able to compete in the 2012 olympics should he qualify.

ever since he's been back competing, a couple of years now i think. he's been under immense media and public scrutiny and has probably had every test imaginable thrown at him since his return. do you really think he's gonna be stupid enough (again) to risk losing everything again ?

he was a national disgrace when he git caught the last time. he'd have to leave the country if he got caught again.

Brad, you can never convince a bodybuilding fan that the majority of athletes don't use drugs.  Since pro bodybuilding is a sport based on drug use and many of the fans use they rationalize that all athletes use. They know without drugs the sport wouldn't exist except for some tiny contests that would survive.

  Due to pre existing conditions in a very small number of athletes like a genetic thick heart wall there will always be a few heart attacks from a disturbance in electrical signals unlike the plaque in arterial arteries in common heart attacks.  More fatal heart attacks happen during sedentary activities like sleep compared to exercise. Exercise has prevented more heart attacks than it has caused.

Had to be steroids!

Most common cause of sudden cardiac death in young athlete is usually structural heart defect.

In my teens i knew a rowing athlete that died of heart attack at less than that age. His aorta had some malformation and literally exploded during competition at the FINISH line: the guy ben over and died.

The guy used roids but nothing fancy.
