American ‘bodybuilding’ champion Cedric McMillan has died at the age of 44, according to reports, from heart problems, complications of Covid-19 and a bicycle accident. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
McMillan, a former U.S. Army veteran, was a professional bodybuilder and in 2017 received the prestigious \u2018Arnold Classic\u2019 award.<\/p>\n
His death was confirmed by the sponsor ‘Black Skull USA’, but the exact cause of death has not been made public.<\/p>\n
This is the third death of a well-known bodybuilder in the US in the last 12 months.<\/p>\n
“We are sorry to announce that our friend and brother @cedricmcmillan has passed away today,” Black Skull USA wrote on social media. “We will miss Cedric very much as an athlete, friend, friend and father.”<\/p>\n
In a November 2021 interview with Generation Iron Network, McMillan said he “almost died” from heart problems he had gone through over the summer.<\/p>\n
By the end of 2020, he had no longer managed to compete from heart problems, Covid-19 and a bicycle crash he had suffered.<\/p>\n
McMillan became a professional ‘bodybuilder’ in 2009, and won a series of competitions that culminated in 2017 with the Arnold Classic Award, named after former bodybuilder actor Arnold Schwarzenegger.<\/p>\n
Three other ‘bodybuilders’ died last year in the US. Among them were George Peterson, 37, who died in October of heart problems, and Shawn Rhoden, who died of a heart attack in November.. \/ BBC \/<\/a><\/p>\n \n<\/p>\n top channel
