Imagine having over 1000bpm resting heartrate

You would hate your life so much more if you were even alive at that point, /sci/

Imagine being a pro cyclist, with a resting heart rate of less than 30 bpm. Sometimes it gets so low that you need a heart monitor attached to an alarm that wakes you up to exercise in the middle of the night. If you don't, your heart rate might get so low that it simply stops entirely.

Oddly specific

Pro cyclists die from SADS (Sudden Adult Death Syndrome) at a far higher rate than the general public. They go to sleep and simply never wake back up, despite being on paper some of the healthiest people on the planet (or ISS).

I can imagine that just fine, who gives a shit? It's just a pump, different organisms will have different pumping rates, i used to have 80 resting, my lowest ever was around 50ish when i was marathoning, it's 60ish these days, there's no real difference to be felt . The human body produces about 5*10^22 ATP molecules per minute, should i hate my life because of it?

Neither of those are true. Athletic heart syndrome isn't correlated with sudden arrhythmic death syndrome ("A" in "SADS" doesn't stand for "adult" lmao) and having to wake up to exercise is simply not a thing. You're probably both thinking about plain bradycardia.

The only real issue with athletic heart syndrome is that it makes anesthesia management harder, with much less margin of error. It may also cause heart rate monitors to make noises because they're typically preset to alert when hear rate dips below 50.

I'll go with the actual experiences of the pro cyclist community over the babbling of some random kid on the internet. Sorry, but the experts know their own fields, you do not.

Yeah okay retard i bet you also believe it when competing bodybuilders say they're totally natty and that them dying at 40 was actually from all the natural muscle mass lmao. There's a huge reporting bias at any top level competition, professional cyclists need contracts to put food on the table and will refuse to disclose any (often genetic) cardivascular issues before it's too late.
>Sorry, but the experts know their own fields
Yeah, doctors know that athletic heart syndrome doesn't mean shit. Cyclists know how to ride bikes.

no such thing

ok i googled it and turns out some athletes have been recorded having as low as 30, but i'm still right and you're wrong
