Did Matt Porter pass away?!?

[Islandswole]

Serious question guys, I was just on his IG checking out his latest post and I’m seeing RIP posted in the comments. @PHD

I really hope not, he’s such a good guy with amazing content and lots of knowledge

Update: Unfortunately he has passed, if anyone has anything negative to say please refrain from doing so. Rest In Peace to not just a bodybuilder, but husband and father. I pray his family pulls through.

Here’s a video explaining more.

Oh man that’s fucking terrible. Fuck that sucks.

Unfortunately it’s true. I received the news this afternoon and I’m so heartbroken. Not only was Matt my coach but a dear friend also.

Keep your negative comments to yourself and don’t even start the gear bashing. I will have any members banned if I see negative remarks.

 

[Ironside]

I’m really sorry for your loss bro.

 

[Islandswole]

That really is unfortunate brother, sorry for your loss.

 

[Wcr86]

Damn, my heart goes out to his friends and family.

Terrible…sorry man.

 

[Ominous]

Very sorry to hear this and sorry for your loss.
His family and friends are in my prayers.

Rest in peace

 

[PHD]

Thanks everyone. I’m so heartbroken over this. This hits really hard

Is there any more word about the mass that was found in his lungs? His wife posted that a few different times he went to the doctors and they brushed him off then finally he gets a doctor to get him in for CAT scans and before any diagnosis he passes. I feel terrible for his wife and son to have to go through this as well.

 

[PHD]

Nothing yet. I can’t imagine what she’s going through

WOW. That really is rough. Moment of silence…

So sad. All these young men in the sport passing. I am truly sorry for this young family. I’ve put a lot of young men in the ground, and met their families. Probably the hardest thing I’ve ever done is to tell the young wives and children that I am sorry for their loss. This young man didn’t deserve to leave the earth so soon. This young family didn’t deserve to lose their father and husband. I hope they have the support they need in life. I’ll donate to go fund me. Sorry @PHD for the loss of a friend. Just remember him. And honor him every day.

Thanks bro that means a lot. I’ll post the go fund me site here. Just hard man. If anyone knew Matt they knew how genuine of a person he was. I was fortunate enough to have worked with Matt since 2014. I will miss him dearly
