Really be careful if you honestly haven't ran, biked, or done real cardio workouts in years.
Truth in that, dated a ER nurse years ago and she would have daily stories of "old guys" coming in with heart attack symptoms after shoveling snow from a big storm. She stated it was her number 3 patient killer after illegal drug OD's on a yearly basis. Forgot what the other big killer was but that statement has always stuck with me.
