maybe the cause is the dieting and the non stop training for contest preparation..

dehydration could be it... also the dieting will take his toll

Something is going to have to change in the future or you'll have more bodybuilders getting sick at shows as they try to come in dryer and dryer.

I think if you look at some comps from the 90's many bbers came in a lot drier

^^^^ True....diuretics came on hard in the late 80's and 90's....a few low level pros died in the mid 90's. Mike Matazzarro (spelling), passed out after the NOC. His resting heart rate was around 41 BPM and his blood pressure was like 201/120....He is lucky the level of dehydration he hit didn't kill him. I worry as well about the level of dryness we expect....scary stuff..It pretty much would be like forcing your car to drive without oil....

Cars need Oil???

Yes it was bad in the evil 80's and 90's Albert Beckles hit the deck in a full body cramp as I think did Mohamad "MOMO" Beniziza, I forget what caused his death but as CWUTrainer said a few Pro's did die, I even seen guys that are just at National level cramping badly and not or only just finishing their routines.

Lets not forget Andreas Menzer, he was drier than beef jerky. The pinnacle of ripped ...
