Maybe I'm a hypochondriac but do you ever get this feeling you might get a heart attack during a really hard workout?:eek:
Usually when I do a workout that is a little tougher than I can manage and then add some sprints to it, gasping for air, and am basically totally exhausted I sometimes get this really short panicky feeling that usually just lasts a fraction of a second. The feeling is basically "I wonder if I just over-did it and my heart will stop any second":oldman:
I had this today while doing a really tough work out. I was just wondering if others experience this too:blush:

I noticed a while back that during sprint workouts, when taking my pulse, my heart seemed to skip a beat. Did the cardiac stress test and found out it actually beats early under those conditions, but is not endangering and had no signs of other mal-effect.
I only get that when I pushed harder than usual and am already exhausted. I don't know if you can actually "over do" it. I usually get that after doing a set of sprints and your heart is pumping so hard that you think your heart might not make the next beat.
Like I mentioned, that panicky feeling is just a fraction of a second.
