Strictly star Aljaz Skorjanec has been the talk of the town after returning to the show for its 2024 series.
Dancing with Love Island star Tasha Ghouri, Aljaz’s stunning choreography and Tasha’s performance has left the judges and viewers swooning.
However, over the past couple of weeks, Aljaz has sparked concern among viewers after appearing breathless following his performances with Tasha.
And, after numerous tweets from fans, one GP has weighed in with their take.
Strictly news: Fans voice concern for Aljaz
Aljaz has appeared to be extremely out of breath post-performance following his return to Strictly after two years out.
The pro dancer’s heavy breathing has been picked up by his microphone for fans to hear – and many have taken to social media to express their concerns. Some even urged the star to “get checked out”.
Is he not fit? He should get himself checked out.
“Aljaz needs to work on his cardio,” said one viewer. “I’ve noticed this series Aljaz is very out of breath. Is he not fit? He should get himself checked out,” said another.
Another also urged: “Aljaz you need to get yourself checked out for shortness of breath, love.” “I’m rather concerned Aljaz is about to keel over with a coronary,” said another.
GP delivers her verdict
However, speaking to the Daily Mail, GP Dr Hana Patel has said that feeling out of breath after “intense exercise” is “expected”.
Dr Patel said some heavy breathing after exercise is normal, although it is most often seen in those who aren’t particularly active or unfit.
“Occasional shortness of breath during intense exercise is expected, especially if you push your body beyond its usual limits,” she said.
‘Requires attention’
However, she did share a warning over “persistent or excessive shortness of breath” that continues for more than 10 minutes after exercise.
While there’s nothing to suggest that Aljaz suffers from this, Dr Patel said prolonged shortness of breath is likely to indicate an underlying issue. And, she added, this would “require attention”.
ED! has contacted Aljaz’s reps for comment.
