21yr old from my gym...DEAD!

[galaxy]

Died Saturday of enlarged heart. Had been abusing steroids for 2 yrs. Was about 5'6" at 200lbs and pretty ripped. My feeling is that this kid lived in the fast lane and abused alot of things. Also, I think this was probably a pre exisiting condition. Obviously the juice didnt help it and people are going to automatically point to steroids. I know he abused 17aa orals alot...Any way, the father wants the police to pursue the issue. wants to know where he got it from. This is just another good reason why you only help yourself out and never admit to anyone that you juice. You never want your name popping up somewhere.

ya gotta feel for his family. 21 is just to young.

i feel ya bouncer.. i'm fixin to turn 22 and i can't imagine goin out right now.. and i'm sure steroids will get another black eye in this instance, but when abused, just like ANYTHING else, it can be fatal.. sane steroid use with consistent doctor visits is the responsible thing we should all do.. thoughts are definately with the family, sad story

Yea, 200 lbs isnt even a monster...there were prob some recreational drugs involved too or a prexisting condition. Even so at 21 you havent even lived 1/3 of your life. I read on T-Mag a couple months ago about a top NPC new england bodybuilder who died at 23..sad to see them go so young.

You definitely can never admit anything, Some disgruntalled bitch that managed my old gym got fired and went to the police.
Names got dropped of people that didn't even sell. Now everyones paranoid.

They arested the owner and a few others. Myself and a shitload of other left the gym but It's still in the back of my mind.

Mark from Boston was a really good kid that was way too young to go. Along with large amounts of gear,the Dr. told the family that pumpnpose cased a blood clot in his heart

geez, that's awful. posts like these make me question even if it is worth it, I mean I use safe, human grade drugs approved only for human use and in moderate doses, but is that even enough.


I mean I wonder if these guys were even doing "alternative stuff" besides the gear, ie synthol, rec. drugs, etc. Maybe it was just too much gear, which if true, is very scary.

I am 23 and that is truly awful, these people hadn't even lived yet.

I knew it was something dealing with his heart but didnt know that was the suspected cause of death. Definately makes you think.
