      The author is not saying that body builders have hypertrophy and endurance athletes do not. He is using the sports as analogies to describe why hypertrophy of the heart is not good. And these analogies are used because cardiac muscle is striated like skeletal muscle therefore it changes in response to load. If your BP is high for a prolonged time (as in lifting a heavy weight) you will stimulate hypertrophy (muscle growth) of the heart.

    02:00 "Thick and inflexible heart"
    A healthy heart will expand. But with LVH, the heart cannot expand as easily and cannot fill up with as much blood as a normal heart. Does Left Ventricular Hypertrophy commonly cause the left ventricle to become *SMALLER* in size? 🤔

    Okay well, analogy aside: "Toning" a muscle is not real. Furthermore, bodybuilders do not always lift heavy. They leverage lower weights to make them harder. This video is more describing what powerlifters may do, though I'm no expert in that sport.
