Is it true that heavy exercise can trigger heart attack? i want to do a hard workout tomorrow but haven't pushed that hard for a while.

Do it : At age 16, if you feel well, the risk is basically zero and it's good for you in lots of ways. Folks over 40 who return to vigorous exercise should get checked first.
