Anthony D'Arezzo - RIP

[MindSpin]

Anthony D'Arezzo was given an autopsy. He died from complications related to a cardiomyopathy, not a minor heart problem! The etiology of the cardiomyopathy was not discussed, but one common cause of cardiomyopathy is longstanding untreated malignant hypertension. Various supplements can cause hypertension, so anyone on supplements might want to periodically check blood pressure at the local pharmacy, or better yet, buy a blood pressure cuff for $25.00. Powerlifters and bodybuilders are prone to pulmonary hypertension; perhaps because of prolonged valsalva when getting out those last few reps. So, it's important to breath properly during excercise and not to hold one's breath and turn shades of purple.

(Note: I didn't write this; it came over the Yahoo masters bodybuilding group.)

Anthony was a great guy and will be so greatly missed. Everyday I thank God for sending Ant into my life and being able to love him and share so much with him. Ant was an inspiration to so many not only in the sport of b-building but in life. If I could say the one thing I loved most about Ant it would have to be his smile. Ant's smile brightened the worst of my days and made me feel the most loved. Not only was Ant my best friend, dinner date, ice cream buddy, adnd number one cook he was my soul mate.

Forever he will remain in my heart and forever I will be proud of the bodybuilder, inspiration, hero, boyfriend, man he was and man he was becoming. Ant - your always a champion and forever I will love and be proud of you.
