@Jeff_T@Jjgfxx I havent dug very deep int the lp(a) studies and maybe there isn’t a lot of studies to really measure in depth. But ascvd is very multi factorial , but it would appear lp(a) is underestimated. To Many health/fitnes nuts have very premature heart events. Something’s off
@Jeff_T@Jjgfxx Nonetheless. Cac isn’t perfect. Less reliable to younger people as you can still have a decent of amount of soft plaque that it can’t capture. Still am going to treat my body to get my ldl to a good level and treat my body as if it’s a higher risk because why not??
@ClassicSwingX 40s? These pros are having problems early 30s. Give it a few more years and it will be late 20s. Look at Willy Z! His back went bad before he was even done growing.
@Jeff_T@ifixhearts What was your lp(a) Jeff? I just mine tested and it’s 10. I don’t think my GP even knows what that means. Thankful to educated myself as I’m new to the lipoprotein game and have neglected an above average ldl for 10 years out of my own ignorance.
@Jeff_T@ifixhearts His case study in itself is fascinating. I like him first of all. But he probably had a solid 30+ years of being morbidly obese before he got his health under control and still has a cac of 0. Amazing he could be that “metabolically healthy” while being that big.Must hav 1 lpa
@freewilllyyyy Very intresting because I just recently made this exact change myself with great results. I’ve always read saw pros hold it in there “fingers” and any palm is a no no. Then I saw a golf instructor say that’s bullshit. Hogan, Nicklaus held heel against palm pad
@_riskFULL You hanging in or gonna scale out? I could smell shit and scaled out of 3/4 of my positions years ago. I want to believe this will be a booming business but the ceo is 150% a politician.
