Getting your real-time heart rhythm monitored for 10 days now requires an ECG technician to review and notify your doctor of a critical arrhythmia. A new study showed A.I. did better than technicians (98.6% vs 80.3%) for identifying these abnormalities

Regular exercise reduces the likelihood of plaque accumulation in the arteries
However, many long-term exercisers appear to have coronary artery calcification, indicating atherosclerosis progression
The fascinating thing is that despite the higher plaque, those people still have lower rates of cardiovascular disease events and mortality

The NHS is lowering the bowel cancer screening age in England from 60 years to 50 years with the aim of detecting cancer at an earlier stage. The change involves sending home-testing kits which can identify signs of bowel cancer before symptoms appear to people aged 50 to 52.
Weight training vs. aerobic training, or both?...
It's the cardiac adaptations that matter.
How do various exercises affect the heart? Let's explore how weight training and endurance training shape your heart differently.
Weight Training: Resistance exercise creates pressure overload, leading to CONCENTRIC hypertrophy, where the heart's walls thicken, but the chamber size remains unchanged. This enhances force generation (power) but may reduce filling efficiency if overdone without aerobic activity. This is important because it doesn't affect stroke volume or the amount you pump with each beat. Furthermore, the thickening can decrease compliance of the tissues and also lead to stiffening of the major vessels leaving the heart.
Endurance Training: Aerobic exercise causes volume overload, resulting in ECCENTRIC hypertrophy, where the chamber enlarges while walls thicken slightly. This improves cardiac efficiency, lowers resting heart rate, and boosts cardiovascular health, though excessive training may have risks.
More importantly... a larger chamber (to a point) increases your stroke volume. That, in turn, is a contributor to improving your VO2 max. The more blood you pump (larger stroke volume), the more oxygen can be delivered to your tissues.
This is why we need to combine bone resistance and aerobic training. Weight training strengthens muscles and metabolism but lacks the heart chamber adaptations of aerobic exercise. Adding aerobic training enhances arterial health, lowers blood pressure, and boosts heart efficiency.
For the best results:
Weight train 2–3 times weekly.
Include 150 minutes of moderate aerobic activity weekly.
Your heart thrives on variety. Aerobic conditioning can balance out some of the less advantageous adaptations that resistance training brings.
keep in mind... this is an orthopedist talking about the heart ;-). So take it for what it's worth
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common disorder of gut–brain interaction. It is estimated to affect 5% to 10% of the global population at any one time.

Data showing that genetic predisposition to high blood pressure and its complications can be partially offset by healthy lifestyle.
High genetic risk + healthy lifestyle = >30% reduced risk for CVD vs. high genetic risk + poor lifestyle.
Episode 43 - Sports Science Dudes chat with Dr. Sagner about Preventive ... https://t.co/xKkxJu8PjP via @YouTube Just had chance to watch this over weekend. Great on explaining what they are doing together, disease management, how healthcare does not really exist, etc. @JoseAntonioPhD@DrMichaelSagner@Longevity_ESPM
Prediabetes is associated with elevated risk of clinical outcomes even without progression to diabetes.
Via @DiabetologiaJnl
Prediabetes is not a waiting room for diabetes, it is a wake-up call. A more proactive approach is needed.
