RIP kimbo slice

[kid1dakota]

Well we do know that black people are predisposed to heart problems and high blood pressure. Surprised no one has mentioned high blood pressure. I really wonder if he had high blood pressure for years and never addressed it. CHF is not something that just pops up over night. And especially at 42. He is a year younger than me. There is no doubt that he was not keeping a check on his health. It appears his heart had never been looked at until maybe recently. Like I said CHF takes years to develop normally. A heart just doesn't enlarge and fall apart in a year. The guy evidently was not keeping regular checks on his heart and other vitals If he was, warning signs would have popped up before his heart got that bad. Just my 2 cents.

Actually he passed a prefight physical in January including an EKG.Now that doesn't mean he was in perfect health .Just not anything dangerous enough to keep him from fighting.

Just a thought but eating 6,7,8 meals a day when bulking could be the cause of a higher percentage of heart failure in the bodybuilding community. Not to mention the extra stress to the heart from excercising vs the average citizen. Or maybe its just the juice. Dunno

It's the combo of both. People underestimate the detrimental effects of bad eating habits. Massive amounts of calories, although it might be good for bodybuilding, is not healthy.

I am 1009% convinced my heart failure was caused by all the things that will allow the members here to dismiss anything that would alter their current cycle/lifestyle. It was those other things. We have not discovered them. They are not currently being searched for. But I am sure it was that.

Poop, I am becoming a politician before my own eyes!

It isn't just the juice...being big is just not that healthy.

The bigger you are, the harder your heart has to work doing everything. Muscle is worse than fat because your heart has to pump more blood.

When I started BJJ and stuff...I'm about 80-90lbs over my normal genetic weight. Still have relatively bad cardio after 3 years, I'm too big for my heart.

The only way it's going to improve is to lose 30 lbs or so. I'm 210-215, I need to be more like 175-185.

What I need to improve my sports performance is also what I need to do to extend my lifespan.

I'm the same way. It's a struggle for me to be under 220 but I know I'd extend my life being less. Resting heart rate is the key here it seems. Lower the better.

What A stupid statement. There are millions of people who probably have no idea who Kimbo is. Hope you bought enough tissues.
