Preventing gym deaths and asymptomatic cardiac arrests

Gym-related deaths in India are on the rise, with many attributed to sudden cardiac arrest (SCA). SCA can occur without warning, even in individuals with no previous symptoms of heart disease. To prevent such incidents, regular medical checkups, understanding family medical history, adopting a healthy lifestyle, recognizing symptoms of SCA, and learning CPR and AED training are crucial. It is also important to start workouts slowly, listen to your body, avoid extreme weather conditions, and stay hydrated.
