Apologies for the question and to the OP. I have just done a cholesterol test and my ldl is 3.2 (120) and the doc isn’t happy. Has given me 3 months to improve this number, otherwise I rekon he will be waiving statins in my face.

My questions is rather simple - those on statins and don’t get any sides of muscle soreness etc , I read that paper and it mentions reduction of mitochondria ? Does this means as a triathlete, we would find improvements in our peformance to swim bike run is diminished ?
Surely people have gotten faster even on statins ?
