  It doesn't seem like your link supports your assertion. It says: "In fact, there is a large body of research supporting that the population that perform the highest levels of physical activity (i.e. elite athletes) seem to present a lower risk of CV diseases and mortality. Specifically, a meta-analysis including 42087 elite athletes reported a 27% lower risk of mortality associated to CV diseases in comparison with the general population (Garatachea et al., 2014). Furthermore, an epidemiological study that analyzed 15174 Olympic medalists found that these subjects lived a mean of 2.8 years more than the average population, independently of the country or the type of sport performed (Clarke et al., 2012)."

  Did you bother to read that before you posted it? Because it does not support your claim, at all. Atheletes live longer (https://bjsm.bmj.com/content/55/4/206 https://bjsm.bmj.com/content/55/4/206) and more importantly live morbidity free lives much longer.
