My condolences mate.

Been there already, with time you'll just keep in your memory the good times spend together.

The first time you know someone near your age who dies of natural causes as opposed to accident is the worst...was he doing cardio?...always use a monitor and keep the rate within realistic bounds.

man that sucks.

31 years and collapsed in the gym that doesn't sound right.

I am so sorry for your loss. It will be a huge shock for you, especially since your friend passed so suddenly and you weren't expecting it. Just think of the good times you shared together and try not to think about the fact that you hadn't spoken for over a year. Hugs

Start getting used to it (if you're young). The older you get (like me and Wes) the more this shit happens.
RIP to your buddy, and sorry for your loss...

Thanks for the replies guys.He wasnt a bodybuilder, didnt use drugs, had ran marathons.

yeah it sucks, i came in to the office one morning not expecting anything, everybody has a down face and I ask making a joke... who died?

And it was one of my good work buddies who actually died - same night when I was happily sitting infront of the TV wife snuggled up he had a massive heart attack and died on the spot, young wife with one kid and one on the way found him next morning.

Fucking heart breaking.

Sorry too hear that Bud and i know the feeling, way back in the early 1990s a close friend just 17YEARS OLD done a Cardio session after Training to burn a few more Calories for a Contest...Dropped dead on the floor (had a Heart condition nobody knew about) we had just left the gym, he said he wanted to do a Cardio session and he'd catch up tomorrow...phone call 2 hrs later....couldn't believe it

Sorry to hear about your loss man.

Man 31 that's way to young, our condolences. When you find out can you let us know the cause. Many of us are that age and want to know what we can do to prevent such a premature death.

My best friend died a year ago this month and my cousin just died last week.

My most sincere condolences bro!

Stay strong.

My above post is the reasaon I hate Ubermans fucking guts.

He never knew my friend, and I knew him since grammar school.

Uberman said he was a drug addict and a shitty father, when nothing could have been further from the truth.

That fucker can rot in hell for those remarks as far as I`m concverned....he`s an inconsiderate non compassionate kunt!

Condolences my friend.

Imagine how Wes feels though...every time he visits the museum he has to take a 40 to pour out for fallen homies
