Title: The Trooper/Patriot R.I.P.
Post by: BayGBM on June 17, 2024, 05:20:12 AM: I saw this guy wrestle a couple times back in the day as the Trooper and thought he had potential. I forgot all about him until I looked him up this morning and found out he croaked in 2021. :'(

He was 6' 5" and 275lbs. Anyone else remember him?

He was even more impressive at low bodyfat levels

All big guys on steroids will die prematurely of heart disease.

Sure seems to be the pattern- left ventricular hypertrophy.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9580689/ (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9580689/)

"The main findings of this study were that an AAS cycle with supraphysiological doses of androgens induced an increase in left ventricular mass, a reduction of left ventricular ejection fraction by ~5%, and a higher left ventricular stiffness reflected by the reduction of E/A-ratio, although changes in filling pressures cannot be excluded. There was a positive relationship between average weekly dose of AAS and left ventricular mass. When AAS were discontinued, after a median recovery time of 8 months, all parameters returned to their baseline values."
