#87 - Exercise and sports cardiology with Professor Paul D. Thompson
Dr Glenn McConell chats with Professor Paul D. Thompson who is Chief of Cardiology, Emeritus at Hartford Hospital, Hartford, CT and Professor of Medicine, Emeritus at the University of Connecticut. He has published over 500 peer reviewed journal articles, was a past President of the American College of sports medicine (ACSM) and was a impressively fast marathon runner. This is the third of a series of podcast episodes on sport cardiology (See Professor Benjamin Levine and Associate Professor Andre La Gerche’s episodes). We covered a lot of ground. There is a greater prevalence of atrial fibrillation in athletes (is it due to larger hearts?). We discussed possible reasons why coronary artery calcium/calcification is higher in athletes. He recommends 8000 steps done vigorously per day. Exercise is very important for your health. What exercise to do depends on your goals and health status. See time stamps further much more. We discuss his free substack called 500 rules of cardiology.

Why does he say cholesterol deposit? It’s more than cholesterol sir!
we love you. Tell us how your calf is holding up.
Dr Glenn. I know you know. I spent some time learning about science: every event alters our likelihood of response. I admire you. You interview people who disagree with you. More than anything, I want to know how your calf holds up when running. I felt such a joy of freedom when I heard you say you would throw your bike into the street. Please tell us how that is going on with you. We love you and need your precious guidance.
Thanks!
@@stephen_pfrimmer Thank you very much for this Stephen. This is two now you’ve given me. I haven’t even told people about Super thanks. I should maybe add that to my little spiel at the end. Greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
It was nice to hear his commonsence opinion of statin drugs and diabetic drugs. He also makes alot of sense talking about exercise. Do what you enjoy and remind ourselves we are not training for the Olympics 😂
How I can support the channel?
That’s a very nice question to ask! Thank you. I don’t do it for the money but I am basically retired now and it does take a lot of time and effort and I did buy a microphone and a webcam and should probably get better equipment. I don’t have any affiliates or sponsors or anything. Several supplement companies and various other companies have offered to sponsor or be affiliates of Inside Exercise but I don’t want to do anything that is even the slightest possible conflict of interest. A few people recently have given me $2-$5 using the Thanks thing on UA-cam which was very nice. In theory I’ve made $1000 from UA-cam advertising but I haven’t even put in the forms to claim it back. Oops. Nothing set up to receive money on other platforms. I’ve thought about setting up a Patreon thing but haven’t yet. That’s probably the way to go. Any thoughts? Also, subscribing, liking, commenting, and leaving a review on other platforms is supporting it too. Thanks again.
@@insideexercise than i will have my "Thanks" money to you, haha. I appreciate that you spend your retierment time for keep spreading good info which has no biases.
Great information!!
Excellent
Nice podcast, do you think you would be able to have Aaron Baggish on the podcast? He's the founder of the cardiovascular performance program in boston Massachusetts General Hospital
@@vincentcampagna3254 Great you liked it. He is definitely on my list and I’ve mentioned him a couple of times I think on the podcast. The only thing is I’ve had now for 4 podcasts on the heart and have one related to the heart coming up. But yes, it would be good if he was keen.
@ 1:00:00 . . . The only thing that keeps me from exercising well over 3-6 hrs a day is that my feet hurt. I often hike 8 hours. I just finished a hike that was 10 hours a day for 3 days at high elevation and I'm ready to go out and do it again with a new pair of shoes. I'm 70 years old but have only been doing this for 5 years and never felt better other than the Morton's Neuroma in my left foot that sometimes hurts. I try to keep my HR at or below 145 but I do get it up to 160-170 for short spurts up a steep hill but that's a very low percent of my exercise (1-2%). I try to stick to an 80/20 HR plan but in reality it's more like 90/10 with an occasional race against my own time rather than racing against other people. I doubt I could even run a 10K non-stop trail run but that is on my bucket list.
Great interview, thanks Glenn.
I'm just over half way through and enjoying the interview. I slightly react to one thing and that is the claim that prehistoric man didn't run long distances and that we were not made for that. It is called "persistence hunting" and could reach marathon distances. The evidence of this is pretty undeniable. I'm slightly disappointed that someone whose experise is based on prehistoric man doesn't seem to be aware of this. But that said, all she says makes sense and I agree. I run in barefoot shoes. No big deal.
Thanks!
Incredible episode Dr. Glenn! Super interesting. I was wondering if also lifelong resistance exercisers (or even sports with no aerobic component) have some deleterious effects, like increased arterial stiffness, insulin resistance (due to the high percentage of type 2 muscle fibers), etc... Keep up the great content!!
@@hugoviegas_17 Thank you. Glad you liked it. I checked with Prof Thompson on your question and he said: “That is a great question, but it has not been studied, so the answer is that we have no idea if resistance exercise has similar effects. I don't think it does, but we don't know. Paul”.
@@insideexerciseI really appreciate the answer! Maybe has other different deleterious effects… anyways what’s important is doing what we enjoy and endurance training is part of that 😅
Not necessarily wrong but Andy has a lot of wires crossed here. Not just forgetting the 20 part of "80/20 z2 training" and the focus on volume and not time-crunched vs "100% z2 training" but the "FTP is Dead" thing he gets worked up over was Sufferfest, not Wahoo.
I believe exercise resistance is the cause of truck drivers being so obese
Excellent insights clearly explained...particularly the paradoxical aspects of calcium burden and exercise , and many other topics.
Very useful👍
@@TheWolfAkella Good to hear 👍
👍👍
You need to listen to the people you interview!
I think it's a multi-variable calculus problem that will someday be simulated by computers when the adaptation process is better understood.
Tim Noakes would disagree about the need for carbs for exercise. He has done a 180 degree turn from his earlier view.
I remember watching a presentation by Jeff Galloway. People certainly did get injured during the 70s running boom. That’s why he came up with run walk. But it’s not like run walk was anything new because scout pace was around before that. Scout pace was almost certainly copied from somewhere else. There’s nothing new under the sun as the saying goes.
Very informative. Great guest👍🏼💪🏼😊
Are there potential signs of pre afib in otherwise healthy long distance runners? Bradycardia with escape beats? Chronic mild elevations of AST?
Have you seen the podcast episodes on exercise and the heart? Benjamin Levines one and Andre La Gerche’s. Lots about atrial fibrillation etc. Also the next podcast episode I’ll be putting out is also on the heart as well. Paul Thompson.
I really appreciate what you are doing with this channel. It is good to hear from those that actually do research.
Great to hear.
22:03 I could relate perfectly to this point, switching to a more cushioned shoe from one with little to no cushion. Last Sunday I got a new shoe, and it happened to be my long run day, so I took it out for a spin. Completed it fine, but ended up with a nagging ache in my medial arch of the right foot (which still persists as I am typing 🤣). So, consider this lesson learned for me.
Oops. Yes, definitely need to take time to slowly switch shoes etc. In the podcast episode with Rasmus Østergaard Nielsen he talked a lot about the need to make very gradual changes with running. Including changing shoes. Good luck with it.
❤
Excellent - will listen to this again (and Episode 69 which is what led me here). 0ne big message was that hearts like vigorous exercise. Dr Levine is not only clear, thoughtful and authoritative but wise enough to caution about specific (rare) circumstances where exercise can be risky. Big thanks for valuable insights, and for letting him talk mostly uninterrupted.
RIP David. 😢😢
We need a summary. Confused the heck out of me. When Insulin is higher and longer than others people then it is diabetes. When the pancreas is not secreting Insulin for glucose presence meaning there is a deficiency of Insulin, it is diabetes. Which one is really diabetes, or is it both conditions?
I have had afib but it wasn't due endurance exercise but rather mitral valve regurgitation which changed the shape of the atria. The changed shape or remodeling is believed to have set off the afib, which was quite severe. Severe means experiencing bpm from 60 to 200 within seconds and back down again. It was way more than uncomfortable but downright hazardous in terms of stroke risk. I have always been an amateur cyclist and that gave me the reserve to survive open heart surgery to fix the mitral valve and afib.
Interesting and helpful information. My least favourite part of listening to researchers is them very casually describing animal studies that cause suffering in these unnatural imposed conditions. Hard to hear.
What is the minimum protein we need when we are not trying to gain more muscle mass? I know we can go all day with zero protein but do we have to eat twice as much to make up for deficient days? How long can we go on say 1/2 of the recommended average minimum. What would happen if I had only 60g of protein a day for 15 days and my lean body mass was around 150 lbs and/or my healthy BMI of 20 was 152 lbs
See the Luc Van Loon episode. He talks about what happens if have lower protein intake. Seems like not much, especially if short term. My take on the two podcasts is probably that 60g per day isn’t really that low for your body weight anyway. But go on what they say.
Good stuff 👏 👍
Agreed. Very informative. Great guest.
Thanks.Thanks.🇨🇦
Fascinating. Love the data based approach Dr Levine takes
Yes, mastery of the data plus a rare ability to put it context and distil a complex story into a few words.
Great episode with two outstanding scientists with training from the Dave Costill Human Performance Laboratory!
Interesting facts about Jim Fix’s death
I like how you bring different opinions on the podcast to give us a nuanced picture of the current science.
The questions in this podcast were poor and came from a lack of understanding about what the constrained model of energy expenditure hypothesis is actually saying.
Dan Buettner, the Blue Zones guy, has been trying a systems approach in the US.
I've just read Johan Hari's Magic Pill. My comment is the same as him in his final chapter, Japan! A wealthy democracy with far less problem with obesity than the anglophone countries.
Interesting but the one thing he doesn't marry with exercise is nutrition, which is equally important. That would be an incredible video, to see how these issues interact.
No one agrees on what a perfect diet is and it's too hard to do controlled studies over long periods of time. There are just too many things and combinations of things that we eat but most people know what's bad - sugar is bad when consumed all the time and even worse mixed with fats. Almost nothing is as bad as cake frosting and doughnuts
I agree, also would have loved to hear him talk about statins.
Two smart guys trying to understand the overcomplicated world of physical activities. Seems they forgot about sleeping habits, massage, stress-free life .... I enjoyed listening!
Steroids
Fantastic
I wonder if he considered the Stryd foot pod and their RSS (Running Stress Score) as a means of measuring ones load.
Hi Alan. I checked with Rasmus and he sent this response to me which he was happy for me to upload: As a researcher, I am absolutely amazed by the attempts made by many to calculate an approximate of a runners´ load. As highlighted in the Podcast, the load placed on the body during running is more than distance, which runners usually use as their preferred tool to quantify their running load. Still, many of the methods developed by the industry to measure approximates of load remains to be scientifically validated and tested in etiological studies to investigate if sudden (excessive) changes in load leads to an increased risk of sustaining running-related injury. Certainly, we need to do that in the years to come. If successful, new insights into the role of sudden changes in RRS and other ways to calculate load will appear.
A bit murky and vague in parts but, overall, a useful discussion with honest, common-sense opinions and some very pertinent truths to be considered by regular, committed and too often over-enthusiastic runners. ......What the heart often wants, the body can not deliver! Cheers.
