RIP chris250

[muscledoc1]

I hope this is on other wake up for many PM members.

I don't know Emeric, some of the people here are very addicted to the point of losing the right priorities in life....

I never had the opportunity to make his acquaintance but RIP Chris. Prayers for the family and friends

Please don't imply he died from heart problems when you have no clue. It's possible but like another said there is a lot of other stuff going on here that has been eluded to.

RIP So sad...we've lost many great contributors to the board this year. I hope he is at peace and his family find solace in one another.

 

[Giants83]

God rest his soul. Prayers to his family.

Another one bites the dust...

At this point, you can only wonder who's gonna be the next vet to pass away... I hate opening PM in the morning and start my day with such tragic news.

Chris talked openly about his heart problems many years ago, and I even clearly remember Dante trying to convince him to become the best "fit" athlete he could be and stop chasing his 300 lbs mass monster dream, for in the end it might just lead to disaster...

Whatever the cause of his death, stopping gear for good and therefore losing much size might have caused a huge psychological trauma, that's for sure.

RIP Chris.

no kidding... I just looked through his threads.


he spent much of his late 20's and early-mid 30's in the 255-280 range (at 5'9)


then had his heart issue in 2010, and appeared to be dialing things back as a result.. but it did not last long.


the last thread he started in 2013, he was back to 275 and trying to push even higher..


few people get a second chance to turn things around... it's truly sad when guys ignore the writing on the wall and refuse to hang up the extremeness of the lifestyle.


if there's a lesson to be learned here, it's that passion and ambition are both great things... but we should never allow ourselves to be so consumed by them that we lose track of reality.

This is very sad.
Chris was really one of the very early inspirations to me on DC training when we met on Mayhem in which he was a figure head. But he was oh so much more than a high level bodybuilder, he was a friend, a, father and a husband, he really gushed over his wife and children and animals in our conversations over the years.

Really hope some can learn the tragedy of an early death, whatever the cause may be the world really is worse off with the Loss of Chis G.

Thoughts go out to his family and friends.

Such tragic news! His poor wife and children.

Even though there's nothing concrete on Chris' death, I just want to point out that when he did come forward and discuss his heart problems, he said that most of it was caused from untreated high blood pressure for many years!

Sad news ! RIP

May he rest in peace. My prayers go out for him as he rests and to his family for understanding and acceptance. May God bless them.

RIP chris250.

Not sure why many are talking heart problems. Guy didn't even use a lot of stuff. All signs point to this being mental health related. If there is a lesson everyone should be pushing, it's depression/anxiety awareness.

But hey, everyone has a narrative to push, right?

By your join date, you weren't even a member here when Chris had his life threatening heart issues...As for your, "narrative to push" comment...Please save the smart ass remarks in a situation like this if you want to remain a member here! Now read below and get educated on this!!

Look at his initial post on page 1
Then page 3 post# 59
Then page 6 post# 102 and read from there and take special note of post# 109.

I just read over on getbig that his death was a suicide. Not sure about the credibility of the source but that is what seems to be out there

 

[165StateChamp]

He also posted multiple times about his anxiety/mental health issues on other boards and venues. My join date is really irrelevant aside from being something you can use as a mark against me. Many people read the board prior to making accounts.
