Mike O'Hearn says long distance running causes heart attacks

2:33




Earlier in the video he says "If you want a healthy heart, go out for a walk three times a week, 20 minutes, that's it"

Thoughts?

Didn't watch video, O'Tren is a *******.

I'd say you need both walking and running. Maybe walk for an hour per day and run 2 days per week. It's what I do.

There are a lot of benefits to the 10 minute walks. Youtube Stan Efferding 10min walks. Tons of valuable information.

EDIT: Misread the thread, 3 walks a week for 20 min? Not gonna cut it.

Stan is one of the most knowledgeable and smartest guys in the industry when it comes to health and longevity. He has tons of great information out there, especially for oldcels like me.

Doesn't have to be related to long distance running though right? I feel like the vast majority of them are in good shape (minus impact damage) but I have no stats and could be wrong.

I'm far from a long distance runner lmao but I think an hour per day mixed running and walking is the tits.

I hate running with a passion. But I love sports. If im not at least chasing a ball around it seems so pointless.

Heard many anecdotal stories like this. I think a local teacher keeled over on a treadmill in the last few years. Have a client at work who was a marathon runner and had a massive stroke. If I recall correctly HIIT is far superior and much better for your system than steady state cardio.

Yeah what he talks about is solid advice. Nothing revolutionary by any means.

i think by long distance brahs we are talking about those people who run actual marathons (26 miles minimum). There's also ultra marathons which are like 100km and more. Marathon runners tend to have very little muscle mass.

your average 5-10km brahs would hardly qualify for that

It's not at all and Stan has clearly said what he says is not special or revolutonary, but that's the problem with the industry these days. Everyone is looking for quick fixes, magic supplements, fad diets. Stan preaches simple things that should be logical, but people are idiots. It's incredible how simple things like diet, sleep and nutrient intake is rarely talked about.

long distance for a out of shape phuck like him is probably 4 miles

ultrarunning is not healthy and no one in the community disputes that. Casual running 2-3 times a week is great for knee and back health and obviously good for your hearts and lungs. add in 2-3 sessions of resistance training and you're golden.

long distance running is proven to be bad for you

also research shows that marathon runners have smaller brains. the brain actually shrinks the body uses the fatty tissue for energy

Yea maybe if you're on $5k worth of gear per month like he is. With his enlarged heart and abnormal body mass, he'd probably drop dead after jogging down the block.

Thoughts?
To be fair his first statement while probably having an element of truth is akin to saying lifting weights is bad for you just look at all the IFFB pro bodybuilders who die prematurely.

On the second statement, I also remember listening to a barbell medicine podcast where they spoke about the level of aerobic fitness one needs to possess in order to prevent premature mortality and morbidity and the threshold is actually quite low (can't remember exact figures but a lot lower than I would have imagined).
