Champion bodybuilder dies at 37... as sport mourns seventh sudden death in six months
Daily Mail ^

Posted on 08/15/2025 10:53:39 AM PDT by algore

Champion bodybuilder Hayley McNeff has passed away at the age of 37, becoming the seventh notable bodybuilder to pass away within the past six months.

McNeff, a native of Concord, Massachusetts, passed away on August 8 - but tributes didn't start pouring in until Wednesday.

Her cause of death has not yet been disclosed. McNeff's obituary says her passing was 'unexpected but peaceful'.

Funeral services for McNeff have been planned for this coming Sunday.

Growing up, McNeff was active in many sports - including skiing and diving - while becoming an accomplished equestrian, according to an obituary posted to Boston.com.

She graduated from UMass Amherst and discovered bodybuilding as an adult. After her career ended, she intended to pursue a graduate degree in psychology.

McNeff rose to prominence in the body building world in the 2000s - winning several titles, including the 2009 East Coast Classic.

McNeff's death is the latest in a disturbing string of deaths in the bodybuilding community - totaling seven deaths in the past six months.

In late July, Spanish bodybuilding star Lorena Blanco died at age 37 of a suspected heart attack while she was preparing to travel to Las Vegas to compete at Ms. Olympia.

30-year-old - Wanderson da Silva Moreira - passed away while competing in the Pantanal bodybuilding championship.

In April, male bodybuilder and actor Vito Pirbazari died at age 44 from a heart attack after collapsing on a treadmill.

Back in March, a 20-year-old bodybuilder - Jodi Vance - died when her heart stopped due to 'severe dehydration', according to a statement from her family.

This appears to have been caused by severe dehydration, according to the article.

I would assume she’s taking diuretics immediately before a competition to “dry out” and get that shredded competition look.

Mild case of body dysphoria? Taking drugs to build body mass, exercising strenuously and often, taking drugs to look “shredded”, very tight diet control....all done to win a contest or achieve an extremely well developed musculature.

I certainly hope that her muscle development program didn’t contribute to her demise.

Read it again
The person who might have died of dehydration was another female. Not Hayley.

I wouldn’t take either side of a bet between mRNA and Steroids.

I wonder what the combination of those two do to the body. For that matter, what does mRNA do when combined with ANY other drug? It's not like it was tested.

It’s also the reliance upon meat for calories, at the expense of healthy carbohydrates.

However, bodybuilding didn’t experiences the deaths it is experiencing until they introduced insulin and HGH into the sport.

PED’s. That’s commonplace.

I was recently hospitalised in Atlanta for dehydration and magnesium loss at the Peachtree. I understand what is happening is the drugs they take.

Steroids?

Yes, it could be steroids, but, in my view, the diabolical bio-agent was deliberately designed to induce death or injury and to do so by mimicking a wide range of natural medical events. This is the stealthy aspect of the agent and why we have medical officials continuing to deny to this day any association between the weapon and the ensuing deaths and injuries.

May their consciences (if they even still have one) haunt them daily for helping in the plan do this to humanity.

“First question, did they take the mRNA jab?”

Does that old line get suckers to subscribe to your phoney Socrates?

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Arnold Schwarzenegger was a vocal supporter of vaccination and encouraged people to get the COVID-19 vaccine.
In January 2021, Schwarzenegger received his first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles. He used the line, “Come with me if you want to live,” from “The Terminator” to encourage vaccination.

Schwarzenegger spoke out against misinformation about the virus. He criticized those who did not get vaccinated, referring to them as “schmucks” in an interview. He stated that individual actions during a pandemic affect the broader community, and that neglecting vaccination puts others at risk.

Arnold has said a lot of stupid stuff. My favorite was when he said "F*** your rights."

Bradycardia is prevalent in top athletes, and roids can place them right on the edge of death. It can be a random occurrence.
