Havent spoke to him in a while but he was having some issues with Pneumonia like shit.  Really sad....had a kid not too long ago
[/quote

He appears to have had a viral pneumonia associated with a viral cardiomyopathy. Simple problem to treat.

Unfortunately he had some dangerous doctors. I see his wife initiated a 'go find me' page. She needs to be suing the doctors' ass.

Emphasizes the point that every bodybuilder needs a good friend as a doctor.
Eliminate the dangerous doctors.

Coach, serious question:

Do you think there are any safe ways to compete at the IFBB level?

I can't imagine it's safe at all, or healthy.

He's just in denial.

Matt Porter posted under the username "futurefreak", no?  If I'm thinking of the same guy, it's a little surprising that he died.  He always talked about doing things the 'healthy' way.  Low doses, supplementation, etc.

Who knows what he was actually doing behind closed doors though.  In any case, kind of a bummer .. he was always nice to talk to and tried to base his practices on evidence-based science

Very sad news, R.I.P. Matt.

He was a great positive person and brother of the iron always gave free advice and truly loved bodybuilding, he will be missed.
I followed Matt on IG and Youtube and FaceBook.  I know he kept a close eye on his BP and it was low  like 100/60 if i remember, this was when he made the series "smaller by the day" when he went off everything.   Not sure what his BP was recently but im guessing it was close to these numbers,  What i do remember from his posts on IG and FaceBook he would post his Blood Test results and I need to go back and Look on IG but im pretty sure he always had LOW HDL levels and HIGH LDL levels and possible high tryglycerides, would this have had such an impact on his heart health even with the very low BP?

Soon is a pretty relative term.

He's just in denial.

I can't of any physical based sport on a world-class level that is good for your health. A sport that pushes your body to extreme levels takes it's toll. Whether it's bbing, MMA, football, Olympic Lifting, boxing, wrestling, gymnastics... that's why physical sports are the province for the young. I think sports like bowling and even golf you can hang on longer but they still have their issues. When you are doing something over and over again every day for decades you're going to have problems.

So a relatively young man who’s had at least 7yrs of health problems that we know of
Dies - And you seem to be Surprised/ Saying he was on top of his Health  ::)

Yes it’s sad that he’s died young - Only reading about his health issues & lifestyle
It’s not a Great Surprise.

And yes I’ve competed & used & still use on & off the last 30yrs
Thankfully for me I’ve not encountered the heath issues he did.

Yeah but chances of seeing an Olympic gymnast die is rarer than a bber or wrestler, the last two you are always seeing guys dropping like flies more frequently

They always say their doing things 'healthy' but if you look at his face from that video he is far from healthy. Healthy to someone using a huge amount of drugs is using half or just less. They don't realise how far from reality that is.

Having seen how some serious Heroin or Meth users have talked, their not addicts they just smoke it a lot but that bloke over there, he injects it! That's serious, smoking it constantly isn't that bad. Get what I mean?

As soon as he had serious problems you get off the drugs. You let your bodyweight come down so it's under less stress and can recover from what you've done. Do these guys do that? Fuck no, or if they do for a period they're like 'Oh I don't feel as shit as I did before, fuck it i'll jump back on heaps of shit again just 75% of it so it's healthy this time, I should be fine'. They're so far gone they don't know what feeling normal without drugs feels like.

He died at 34 and was having serious problems at 27-28. That's not good. I know the mental feeling, I remember getting blood tests back and doing a scan on my liver and it came back with irregularities. I didn't give a fuck I wasn't going to stop juicing or eating. Eventually I didn't like how I looked and wanted to be leaner so I stopped juicing and even now if I could go lower than 195 at 5'8' I would but there's no fat left to lose. But I could see if I was stuck doing it and didn't want to stop you don't give a fuck you just keep doing it and taking a break doesn't change the mental state of wanting to push yourself further and further. These guys need to find something else to push themselves in at that point because it will shorten their life span a lot more.
