I’ve saw a woman interrupt a vigorous elliptical workout and get off the machine, only to collapse. It wasn’t her heart or anything, just her leg muscles, and she wasn’t injured in the fall. I was the only other person there and I thought she got off because she was having a heart attack or something. She just wanted to go get her phone or something.
