Exercising While Angry May Lead To Heart Attack

Exercising with unusual vigour while you are enraged or emotionally distraught could be dangerous for your heat, according to a new study. The results indicate that, individually, both strenuous workouts and emotional upheaval increase the likelihood of cardiac arrest, but the risk is greatest if you combine them. The new study, published last week in Circulation, is based on data of 12,500 men and women from 52 countries. About 13% of the people said that they had been heavily active just before their cardiac arrest, with about 14% saying that they had been angry or upset. There was quite a bit of overlap: Many said that they been both active and emotionally distraught before having their heart attack. Compared to how they felt the day before the attack, people had about twice the risk of heart attack when they were active and about the same risk when they were feeling very emotional. Combining those states and exercising while upset tripled someone’s risk of an attack compared to their risk the day before.

10K-Calories Dare: YouTubers Binge To Impress Fans

YouTubers are challenging themselves to eat 10,000 calories in a single day in a bid to impress their fans – and the task is proving harder than it might seem. As the name suggests, the challenge involves scoffing at least 10,000 calories in the space of a day, about 8,000 calories more than the recommended daily amount of 2,000 for women and 2,500 for men. Searching the phrase on YouTube rakes up thousands of videos, and while each user has their own take on the challenge, most use it as a chance to gorge as much junk food as possible. Furious Pete, who has than three million followers, ate 10,000 calories in one go by making giant pieces of Fresh toast. In one sitting, he ate three loaves of brioche bread cooked in egg, full fat milk and butter, topped with chocolate and peanut butter. And he looks understandably defeated by the end of the video. Other takes a slower approach. Rob Lipsett, told his 91,000 subscribers that the 10,000 calories challenge is a “YouTube rite of passage.” In one day, he ate French toast, American pancakes, four cookies, a burger, fries, three pizzas, cheese, and a tub of ice cream. Undefeated by the mountain of food, he pledged to eat 20,000 calories if 20,000 users liked the video. As a person need s to eat around 3,500 extra calories to put on a pound of fat, the challenge will likely cause around 3lb of weight gain and would take around 10 hours of training to burn off.
