I bet her vision was blurry and was on the verge of passing out, and probably hadn't worked out in a while. Whenever I used to workout with friends I always tell them whenever you feel funny, sit down. Your body is telling you to take it easy. You can work up to pushing it but don't die in the process. It didn't look like a hard workout but we don't know if she had a proper cool down or anything like that.

They need to make it easier to get checked up for that shyt. :damn:

Like we hear athletes sometimes retiring after a routine check-up flags it.
There was a story not too long ago about a retired NFL player - I think he played for the Cardinals for a bit. He was lifting, had a stroke or heart attack and died. He was in his 40s and vegan if I’m not mistaken.

It sucks when you think you’re on the right path but your body betrays you.

If there aren't any warning signs and you don't have a family history of heart issues, how would you really know that could or would happen?

It happened to one of my best friends. Athlete in college, starting pitcher for our D1 baseball program, collapsed at the finish line of half marathon. Granted he had a family history but no previous heart issues. Was dead for 6 minutes but was revived by cpr. Doesn't remember shyt. They told him they didn't know why it happened for 2 years. Meanwhile his chief cardiologist who was 38 years old randomly dies from cardiac arrest while running on a treadmill. Then finally, while wearing a halter monitor for like the 3rd time in 2 years, he gets a message that they found something. Finds out he has a cardiac arrhythmia and will need a pace.maker at 34 (he's getting ready to turn 36 next march). Finally after dealing with massive panic attacks from PTSD of collapsing at the half marathon, he gets the pacemaker.

Again, you just never know.

One of my homies about 10 years ago died suddenly like that.

He was running around a track and dropped dead. He had an unknown heart condition + had a Red Bull. Dude was only 23.

RIP this woman.
There was a kid in high school when I was in middle school that collapsed and died during practice. Because of that we had to have misting tents, defibrillators, and lots of water on the field at all times.

I get nervous as hell whenever I feel that at the gym. I make sure to stop immediately.
