J.P. Morgan excitative James B. Lee Jr. died at 62-year-old last week after exercising. This high profile banker, who is regularly exercised, became short of breath and went to a hospital, where he died, according to WSJ.

The tragedy further points to the fact: "Exercise is not a vaccine against heart diseases". 

How to avoid the tragedy if you are middle-aged in high-stress jobs?
1). Say NO to rigorous exercise, whether on a treadmill, a road race or a basketball court.
2). Avoid "crush it" once a week or infrequently sudden strong exercise.
3). See a doctor when you "don't feel right" such as a little chest pain, shortness of breath, a heart palpitation or feeling more fatigued than usual.
4). Get a checkup once in a while.

The Studies have shown that the benefits of physical activity come from frequency, not intensity. People get more than 50% of the payoff of rigorous exercise just by walking, according to Michael Roizen, chief wellness officer at the Cleveland Clinic.

Tai Chi is an alternative way to get consistent exercise. It is a noncompetitive, self-paced system of gentle physical exercise, and it is an effective way to fight stress.
