| My friend, ‘Lyonel Lumarque, died suddenly a few days ago.
I mean this guy was in fantastic shape. a great athlete, and coach.
Plus, I had two other very fit friends who died like that also. Both were in great shape. What the heck happened? I decided to do some homework on this and found that sometimes people have a previously undiagnosed heart problem. I found out that I had one myself. Men are notorious for not getting regular physical exams. Consequently, they end up not knowing they are at risk until it’s too late. They are at higher risk of this than women. Doctors can see what we can’t, things like thickening of the heart or aortic aneurysm. Regardless of how great your physique is or how strong you are, you might be walking time bomb. Why not schedule a physical exam yourself? Just sayin’ Coach D |
