My opinion remains unchanged. Nowadays, simply exercising and expecting to be healthy is no longer enough because the environment is terrible. If you focus on one thing, the environment will inevitably cause something else to go wrong. It's frustrating when someone who has exercised their whole life and believed that this would lead to a long and happy life, dies from pneumonia. Now, you either take health seriously, or it's better not to waste your time and energy. So, regarding the lifestyle of an athlete... I don't think so; I think it's the lifestyle of someone who takes care of their health, not just engages in meaningless activities. Now, about the healthy lifestyle of an ordinary person. Running and eating fruits and vegetables will be useless if they don't also pay close attention to everything else. As I understand it, such a person should also limit themselves in consuming tasty but unhealthy foods. So, someone does that, and what happens? This unfortunate person won't be able to fully enjoy food, and then they'll limit themselves in other things, and what will be the result? They will start suffering from an inferiority complex because they never get what they want. And what will we get in the end? A half-sick person with an inferiority complex and a strange worldview. A person who doesn't lead a healthy lifestyle can still stand up to a bully or seduce a girl, and besides, they can afford to spend more time with that girl. Will the person described in the post above have heart attacks? Of course! Exhausting workouts and constant self-restriction will take their toll on their mental state. Some people think that nothing depends on the mind, but in reality, it can kill you faster than many other things. Even if you have a slow metabolism, you won't become a muscular athlete just by running fast. Instead, running and realizing that there's no progress will only make the person sad. Flaws, whatever they may be, are perceived as part of oneself, albeit an inconvenient part. But it's still part of you. It's not dirt or sweat; it's you. And finally, I think that by "strengthened health," you meant having a thick coat and a team of doctors nearby, because no one is immune to colds and bronchitis, except perhaps those who never even experience mild cold. A healthy lifestyle seems to be a kind of disease that gives the illusion of health and is therefore even more dangerous.
