Heard about this a couple hours ago but didnt know any other details. Adam and I didn't really ever get along - and I have my opinion of him..but I would never wish anything terrible on him. Sad news and I feel for his children. RIP.

Got to know him on FB. Who knows what the cause of death was but the guy fought a lot of demons and really put himself out there. I know not everyone cares for him but I always had a soft spot for the guy. Really sad to hear.

To be fair….most people don’t get along with you lol

That's not fair, accurate, or funny.

It was just meant as a bit of a joke. You and Adam are both very opiniated and passionate people. I could see why you guys would butt heads. A lot of people did with Adam. He could be abrasive, but his podcast definitely had an impact at pushing our sport forward

He wasn’t even a 300 pounder or anything/ Very sad and unexpected news…

I don’t think bodybuilding had anything to do with it…

Yep, i believe he had mentioned some rec drugs/opiates/alcohol addiction in instagram posts the past few years.

Adam may have ruffled a lot of feathers and done some messed up stuff, but hey nobody is perfect. And he contributed greatly toward the awesome bodybuilding podcasting scene we have in 2022. His shows from years ago were legendary and groundbreaking for their time. Rest in peace, Adam.

If you knew anything about Adam, its not really all that unexpected. He lived a very hard and fast life.

Never nice to hear this, no matter what your thoughts of him were. I don't have many bad experiences with him, always enjoyed the few interactions I had.

Damn. May God comfort and care for his family.

I see someone mentioned opioids/alcohol. I don't know if they played a role in his death, but I do know the hardships of opioids. Very, VERY tough drug to get away from. Very sad when it happens. A lot of good people have passed because of opioids.

If I remember right, he had a heart issue a few years back caused by previous drug use.

I don’t believe so - perhaps you are thinking of David Baye?
