Zyzz Steroids: Zyzz, also known as Aziz Sergeyevich Shavershian, was an Australian bodybuilder, personal trainer, and model who was born in Russia. After starting to upload numerous videos of himself to YouTube in 2007, he gained a cult following.
When The Sydney Morning Herald wrote an article regarding the arrest of Shavershian’s older brother Said for illegally possessing anabolic steroids in July 2011, Shavershian attracted more media attention. Aziz passed away at the age of 22 on August 5, 2011, while on vacation in Thailand as a result of a heart attack.
Zyzz: Death
Zyzz never engaged in professional competition, but he did develop a movement that emphasised aesthetic appearance, which helped him gain a large following among young people. He was revered as the aesthetic God and was even worshipped as such. Zyzz had a vacation to Thailand in 2011. Nobody would have guessed that it would be the last time they heard from Zyzz. He was discovered unconscious in the hotel’s spa, and shortly after the incident, he was declared dead from a cardiac arrest. A well-known online bodybuilding star passed away at such a young age. And although he never directly acknowledged it, there were strong suspicions that it was caused by misusing steroids.
Zyzz Steroids
Although Zyzz never publicly acknowledged using steroids, his brother Said had openly discussed it in a YouTube video, saying that he was shocked by how powerful and muscular Zyzz was growing after high school. He continued by describing how he once entered Zyzz’s room to find him receiving a steroid injection. At that point, Zyzz introduced Said to steroids, and the two brothers began misusing them to gain weight and build muscle. Said was once discovered in possession of anabolic steroids, admitted guilt, and paid a fine. There were claims that Zyzz had a pre-existing cardiac issue, and it had been widely established and studied prior to his passing that steroid abuse exacerbates existing diseases, particularly those that are heart-related.
To top it off, his brother Said continues to ruminate to his Instagram followers about how he is living the good life for a few more weeks while recovering from an injury and how he can’t wait to be back on “Trenbolone.”
Is using anabolic steroids worth the brief amount of online stardom they grant you? Are those endorsements for supplements, clothing, and likes really worth the trash that one ends up injecting up their ass?
Is death at the young age of 22 really worth it?
Zyzz’s story is unfortunate, to put it mildly. The story is frequently told—again, in this article—to prospective bodybuilders as a precaution and a warning about the potential costs of improper usage and abuse of anabolic steroids.
If anything, tales like these ought to awaken people who are currently injecting and encourage them to stop using steroids.
