I can believe it. I had meningitis and a staph infection and lost 38 pounds in eight weeks or so. Throw in the pneumonia I got while in the hospital and it’s a perfect storm for weight loss.

The dude was nurse in San Francisco:

“Schultz is a nurse from San Francisco with no underlying conditions who used to work out nearly every day, but after six weeks in a Boston hospital with the virus, he said he’d gone from 190 pounds to 140.”

Dollars to doughnuts his t-cells are in single digits!

When I had my appendix removed I was hospitalized for only 4 days and I lost a few pounds of muscle. I was clean and ripped before the operation but still came out looking way skinnier. The body‘s main focus was to heal not trying to hold on to muscle. Throw in a lack of calories, no activity, no PEDs and you have a great recipe to say goodbye to your muscle mass

No underlying conditions? Dudes skin looks really flushed in the first pic

The more simple explanation is that being intubated and unable to eat for 6 weeks makes you lose a ton of muscle.

The alternative explanations posted here are ridiculous. Oh the denial.

Once he's fully recovered, he'll probably gain back the weight fairly quickly. It is amazing though to see how much losing 50 lbs. changes a person.

These are the current stats from NYC. There’s almost certainly more to his story than he is revealing:

Losing 50lbs of muscle when you are already lean... even worse.

Coronavirus?? This is critical illness neuromyopathy or AIDs neuromyopathy. He has a feeding tube so has done GI sx. as well. How many people did he infect?

BayGBM · « **Reply #20 on:** May 22, 2020, 06:41:12 AM »

He is probably 160# natural and juiced up to 190# With no food and no training he dropped down to 140# Covid did not help, but the devolution of his physique was not "caused" by corona. He simply wasn't able to eat solid food or train for 5 weeks. Laying on your back with a feeding tube for more than a month will do that to you.

kreator · « **Reply #21 on:** May 22, 2020, 07:46:03 AM »

No activity, sickness, no hormones, poor nutrition and being bedridden... all this contributes to loss of muscle mass. When you‘re really sick your body puts the most effort into regaining health, it doesn‘t give a shit about your biceps size

I hope to never experience this. A couple of days in hospital is about all I can take and that's with eating their food with a knife and fork instead of through a tube. Last time I had a short hospital stay, I gained weight.

It is amazing how a quick drop in weight drastically changes facial appearance. If he could maintain his trim waistline while regaining the muscle lost, he might be contest ready. I'd call that turning a negative experience into a positive one.

All of which, really sucks!

On an IV without eating you can lose, at a minimum, 1-2 pounds a day in a hospital. Back in my early skinny cycling days I was a very lean 162 pounds and got struck with appendicitis. Because it burst I was on IV only for 7 days. Came out weighing 147- and could barely hold myself up walking.
