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.
