Rich Piana Dies, Steroids and Pre-Workout Snorting Powder Found

Rich Piana has passed on after being placed in a medically-induced coma, after passing out earlier in August.

Countless of his fans (1.2 million on Instagram, @1dayumay) expressed their grief all over social media, Rich being a very controversial figure in the bodybuilding world, but one who gained a devoted fan base via his unusual, loud and wayward style.

Piana was open about decades-long use of drugs, including steroids, which he felt certain were necessary in the world of professional bodybuilding.  He went lengths to not encourage others to follow the same path, and used himself as as positive an example as could be possible under the circumstances.

Police reported that 20 bottles of testosterone were found at his home.

Piana left behind his wife Sara, who appeared in many of his social media efforts.
