Dwayne Quamina RIP

That video he made was hard to watch (like the day before he died or something, right after his show).
Jesus, some of these guys arent very smart... Brutal..
 
This one definitely hits me a little, bleu was my first coach I worked with seriously when I was younger. So I’ve been following Dwayne forever. It definitely Always makes you question your own personal choices and if you are keeping a close enough eye on your own health.

Yeah this is a rough one. I crossed paths with Dwayne very briefly a few times and was the nicest dude especially since he didn’t know the hell I was. I can’t imagine what is family is going through. 40 f’ing years old.
 
Never had the chance to meet the man. 40 years old though, being in my early 40s this one also hits close to home especially considering the crazy shit I've done in the past. I dont think I've ever ran anything in the realm of pro level cycles and I have definietly taken long drug free breaks and kept up with my bloods but still this sucks. Rest in power man.

I followed most of his prep. Probably didn’t help that he went from 20%+ body fat to peeled in 12 weeks going like 3-4 weeks with zero carbs and 3 hours a day cardio and no telling what all he was taking.

The sport is hard to leave. Retired in 2020 because of heart issues and just couldn’t stay away. Brutal.
 
Yeah heart issues and this sport don’t mix well unfortunately. I had an ekg done with last bloodwork and plan on doing that once a year to stay on top of it. As soon as something seems out of whack I’ll know my bodybuilding days are over lol

Awesome to hear. Calcium scores are great too. I get one every few years to make sure I’m good. I’m not a big guy but someone like you who holds a lot of mass might be a good idea just to be safe.

I recommend getting a stress test with echocardiogram after also. Got to see my heart as it was pounding on the screen lol they were checking ejection fraction and stuff like leaky valves or abnormal rhythms beyond what the ekg can see. Just got a full torso mri if you can swing that as well. I went with an Ezra scan cost me 1000. Wanted to make sure I’m just growing muscles and not tumors.
 
I hate to say it but the guy knew what he was doing he saw all the signs yet he still kept trying to prove to himself to keep pushing through it like it was some sorta hype challenge. It's your health on the line!. I don't feel Bad! one bit on why and how he died its just sad. If your not an elite bodybuilder and at a certain age you know you ain't gonna win shit! It ain't worth it.

Watching your heart work & valve timing on an electrocardiogram is wild & very humbling seeing just how vulnerable we are !!
Very eye opening

Oh absolutely lol seeing the way the blood was going through my heart I thought I was totally fucked. I was thinking there’s no way this is right. Then they said my hearts looking really good so right on 🤘
