The bodybuilding community is in a state of shock currently. It has been revealed that beloved IFBB Pro bodybuilder Luke Sandoe has tragically passed away.

Sandoe was an English-born bodybuilder who was quickly rising through the ranks, and becoming one of the most exciting prospects in the world. At just 30 years of age, and four years into his pro career, he had accomplished a ton. Although he had not yet won a pro show, he scored third at the 2019 Arnold Classic, which really began to turn heads.

UPDATE: Luke Sando’s Friend Revealed The Cause Of His Death

However it would seem that the life of Luke Sandoe would be heartbreakingly cut short. According to multiple reports, the Englishman lost his life sometime Thursday morning. This comes as a massive shock, given how young he was, and how lovely he appeared when we last saw him.

“This is such a shocking news for bodybuilding community RIP brother !!! Beyond saddened to report the tragic passing of IFBB Pro Luke Sandoe. Our entire team is stunned and our hearts go out to Luke’s family, loved ones, and the entire bodybuilding world which he entertained in only ways he knew how.”

“Mannnn!!” Dexter Jackson proclaimed. “Where do I even start!?? 🤦🏾‍♂️ This shit sucks!! First of all it was an honor standing on stage next to @lukesandoe at the @ifbb_pro_league Tampa Pro.
