His friends who noticed him collapse immediately responded and rushed him to a nearby hospital where he was declared dead.

A 24-year-old police constable died due to cardiac arrest while working out at a gym in the Marredpally area of Secunderabad on Thursday. The deceased was identified as Vishal. He received the posting as a constable in 2020 and was posted at the Asif Nagar police station.

Vishal went to a nearby gym to workout on Thursday and suddenly collapsed in the middle of his training. The incident was also caught on the CCTV camera installed inside the gymnasium.

The CCTV visuals showed Vishal suddenly collapsing while exercising in the gym. His friends who noticed him collapse immediately responded and rushed him to a nearby hospital. However, he was declared dead by the doctors after some time.

Deaths due to cardiac arrests are on the rise these days. Recently, an Indore hotel owner passed away after a heart attack while working out in a gym. The CCTV footage from the gym showed the victim, Pradeep Raghuvanshi, abruptly collapsing on the floor, a Business Today report said.

 It also showed the victim sweating and becoming breathless after using the treadmill. Later, he was seen taking off his jacket but within minutes he  collapsed. He was immediately rushed to a nearby hospital by the gym trainer and other people, but was declared dead on arrival.

The doctor at the hospital told that a medical checkup should be performed on everybody who want to workout in gym. "It is necessary for an older person to get a checkup done before working out. Nowadays, everyone has started going to the gym. But no protein should be taken without consulting a doctor," he was quoted saying by India Today.

In another incident, Telugu film star and NTR grandson Nandamuri Taraka Ratna passed away due to cardiac arrest. Taraka Ratna collapsed while participating in the launch of the state-wide 'padayatra' of TDP General Secretary Nara Lokesh on January 27. He passed away on February 18 while receiving treatment at a Benguluru Hospital.
