Is it true that heavy weightlifting causes strokes?
Unclear. One case-crossover study reports that weightlifting was associated with increased risk of hemorrhagic stroke onset within two hours among Chinese patients, and a reference list notes heavy physical exertion as a cardiac trigger. Neither establishes that heavy weightlifting generally causes strokes.
