long distance running also damages your heart in the long run, but as you see they still let teenagers do it all of the time

>>40192193
Yea I'd also say get a second opinion, I wouldn't say lifting even raises your heart rate THAT much.

Friend see another doctor as I have never heard this unless it is an exceptionally odd case.

Get that second opinion as a healthy life style does great wonders for your heart and keeps it strong.

lifting does not lift it that much, get more opinions, make sure its not just the doctor checking his back

>>40192193
fuck what the medical expert says you should totally do what a bunch of inept NEET's on /fit/ say instead.

Tfw diagnosed with marfans syndrome as a toddler

>never was allowed to participate in gym class when I was little

>stayed weak because my already overprotective parents were afraid that any exercise would stress my heart too much

>not allowed to play with other kids in playground, stayed inside by myself playing with blocks all day

>highschool rolls around and I'm a skinny lanklet with no social life because I spent my childhood alone

>end up seeing a specialist one day who says I was misdiagnosed and I don't have marfan syndrome after all

>fuck my shit up senpai

I'm in college now and I've startes lifting but I can't help but feel I really missed out on a big part of my childhood

My advice? Dont squat heavy. Sort out your spine and become the king of deadlifts.

Google "marfan syndrome systemic calculator" to determine if you actually meet all of the criteria. The scale for diagnosis was changed in 2010 because of a problem with people being misdiagnosed

You can't recover the time you've lost, only enjoy the time you have now. Glad that you found out it was a misdiagnosis though. Now you can do everything you never thought you were able to do as a child.

fuck it if you feel better and it makes your life more enjoyable why stop.

You're going to die anyway so you can either baby yourself and live a long uneventful life or you can push it to the limit and go out knowing you had fun. In the end we'll all end up on a deathbed wishing we had more time.
