"Doing more exercise with less intensity,"
Arthur Jones believes, "has all but
destroyed the actual great value
of weight training. Something
must be done . . . and quickly."
The New Bodybuilding for

MUCH of that "something."

The maker of SIXTEEN CANDLES, THE BREAKFAST CLUB and HOME ALONE died today while jogging in New York from a heart-attack at the age of 59.

(Most reports state that he dies while jogging, but THE WALL STREET JOURNAL ON-LINE stated he passed during his morning walk.)

He's not the first and he certainly won't be the last. Serves him right for being ignorant of proper exercise.

"Cardio" ... it kills!

The real question about John Hughes whether he really improved teen-life, or did he give them bad behavior to model?

It is funny, because I see kids of all ages all the time and the greater number of them scoff at their parents nostalgia for the Thomas Crapper, insert whatever expletive, or euphemism, they might use.

Look at the effect John Hughes had on Silent Bob and Jay?! The troubled kids that I see are very much like those two demented clowns.

In a related story that uderscores the very real risks of aerobic activity, a deranged man targeted a low-impact aerobics class near Pittsbugh killing 3 women. No one in the Nautilus room were harmed...

So sad! It could have just as easily have been from shoveling snow, making love or even a HIT workout. Jogging was just the activity that a man with a bad heart was doing when he died. Did he smoke, drink to excess or use drugs? How was his diet? What was his blood work like? Stress levels? Sleep?

I love HIT, but to blame this all on jogging is ridiculous.

I don't believe this to be accurate. The reports I read last night had no mention of jogging; only that he was walking with his family.

Reports are he walking. obviously he had an underlying heart condition most likely from eating too much fat.

You're right. The man could have crocked from shoveling snow, having some fun with his lady or a HIT workout. Running is more damaging on the body than it is beneficial. He likely ran himself into the ground, literally.

The point here is irregardless of other health problems he may have had, running certainly is not going to improve his health condition. All other potential health factors are irrelevant.

The fact remains that jogging does not improve one's health. So what, he had a bad heart? Is running something you really want to partake in with a heart condition? That sound like a death wish.

Why run when there's gun?

Well, as noted in the initial posting, I admitted that reports started varying between jogging and the "morning walk" that Hughes liked to take. It appears everyone is saying walking now. I think that an initial report by TMZ was how the jogging story dispersed, but maybe Hughes was A POWER WALKER, so are we not splitting hairs here?

(Funny thing.... if you put in John Hughes Jogging, or John Hughes Dies Jogging, in GOOGLE, then my posting here is in the top three or four listings! Awwwwe, the power of the press!)

i ask you a legitimate question, what's your point in posting a thread about the death of an individual that you don't know personally? Is it because you thought you'd indict "jogging" as a particularly dangerous activity?

You folks really aren't all that bright, are you?

First, 'got what he deserved'? So, if the author of that cheesy little comment was gunned down in the street tomorrow for being an ass, can we say the same? The man died and left family behind. What is wrong with you?

Second, it isn't jogging or weight lifting. If it were the latter, then maybe everyone should stop with weights because of potential risk of aortic aneurysm or aortic dissection? Most of the people on this site are probably over 35--anyone thought about the affects of your diet (stiffened arteries) and what weight training does to them?

It is DIET that is the reason for most people dying of a heart attack, not jogging. Arterial disease from the crap we eat clogs the arteries, causes inflammation and then the trigger happens which causes the event.

Do your research. You all might as well post on www.tranformetrics.com--the information there's about as accurate as what is on Dr. Darden's site any more.

Wow! That is sooooooooooo cool Benny! Somebody dies and your posting is a top three search. I'll bet his family and friends are really happy for you.

BTW, you don't run yourself into the ground. There are societies around the world who walk and run their entire lives. You eat western diet, wear poorly designed shoes and pound on concrete day in, day out, and unless you've got the genetics of Superman, you're looking at potential issues.

ABOUT YOU SAYING....

The man died and left family behind. What is wrong with you?


MY RESPONSE....

Who said anything about his family? Did I condemn him to a nether-region?

Actually, what I should have wrote is obvious to many here, this is one more example of what is promoted as good for us, walking, as being neutral at best. If doctors had any sense, or so-called fitness magazines, they would not completely give sanction to, GO WALK. What I gather from John Hughes, along with lots of other exericse-related deaths, is that they die by themselves, as no one is right next to them to begin CPR.


ONE MORE RESPONSE TO PARKER1....

Are you my priest? No, so stuff it.

From Benny to my PM:

"Stuff it & Your Boyfriend Too!"

Wow Benny! Pretty impressive. Combined with your continued poor information and glee with being a top Google resulting from a post over someone's death, you pass along things like this, huh? What a guy.

You're clearly clueless when it comes to exercise and heart attacks.

It is arterial disease, not walking or running.

If you spent less time on trying to out volume everyone with every single post and spent more time learning, you might have more of a clue.

And re-read what I wrote regarding 'what is wrong with you' Benny. It was was in response to the crass comment 'served him right'. BECAUSE HE JOGGED?

Thank you, JammyComeLately. You can go crawl back under your rock now.

We do not know the particulars of the whole story, so it's silly and in poor taste to speculate now.

Any exercise undertaken by a heretofore sedentary person can be dangerous, but that may not be the story either.

If it's anywhere near as hot where he lives as here in Houston, just sitting in a fucking chair can be hazardous to your health.

Have you watched the Breakfast Club? And if you did, did you stop judging long enough to see what it was really about?

It was about young people struggling to find their own identities beyond the social 'clicks' that they, their classmates, their parents, and judgemental jackdads like you put them in.

And what the fuck do Jay and Silent Bob have to do with it? (Other than Kevin Smith might appear to be a more likely cardio candidate, despite being 20 years younger)

***** SIMON HECUBUS *****


Kevin Smith, especially via his characters of Silent Bob & Jay, credited John Hughes to ad nauseum, both within the films themselves and the interviews with Smith.

I have seen THE BREAKFAST CLUB countless times and I liked it, but I also have seen as many kids as the Judd Nelson character bully other kids, but they say the character was cool. So, the question is if John Hughes made things better, or put the worse, or second worse to Emilio Estevez, of characters in a spotlight as the cool guy that gets the princess at the end of the movie.

The horror of things! Made things better or worse with a couple of movies!

Then you'd better start questioning Walt Disney with all of cheating that took place in his movies. After all, didn't Fred McMurry provide his university team flubber to win a football game? Cheating! And how about Dexter and his friends taking those pills to win a weight lifting competition in "The Strongest Man in the World"??? Uh oh--Disney Studios endorsing DOPING.

And didn't John Wayne empty more than a few whiskey bottles in his movies--all of the impact upon alcoholics!! OMG! Burn the films!

I think Rush Limbaugh had an observation about illustrating through absurdity...unfortunately, Benny, you wade right in by being absurd.
