Is being healthy bad for your health?

[*Stannis*]

Surely all these sports people having cardiac arrests and dying left, right and centre, can't just be coincidence? Is there such thing as too much exercise? Where do you draw the line?

Now a World champion swimmer has passed away (RIP).

Norway's world 100 metre breaststroke champion Alexander Dale Oen has died.

Dale Oen, who was 26, was in Flagstaff, Arizona at a training camp where he is reported to have had a cardiac arrest.

Starla Collins, a spokesperson for the Flagstaff Medical Center, confirmed Dale Oen had died but could not provide any more details.

Dale Oen won the 100m breaststroke at the World Championships in Shanghai last July, three years after claiming Olympic silver in Beijing.

He was one of Norway's top hopes for success at this summer's Olympic Games in London.

Per Rune Eknes, the president of the Norwegian Swimming Federation, told www.vg.no: "This is just awful, especially for the family and close friends, and also the sport of swimming."

Death can strike at any time doesn't matter how fit or not you are.

[Konstantin]

Too much of anything is generally not a good thing.

[AssasinKing]

Thats one stupid ass theory

If we heard about every obese person that died.....the ratio in comparison to healthy people would be ridiculous

This is life, anything can happen....You say people dying left right and centre...

Yet you have probably heard of 3 in 3 months

It's the PED's they are using that make their heart go on overdrive in combination of unnatural amount of physical activity.

Obviously it isn't but everything needs to be in done in moderation. It's like people saying they don't drink because they are afraid of getting cirrhosis. It's already been proven that a beer once a day can make help your health.

Wine also but beer is healthy in moderation. Through studies it has been shown that beer strengthens the heart, brain, vitamin levels, and reduces cancer, diabetes, and strokes. Remember though in moderation. Getting **** faced certainly isn't going to help you out.
