Seth Feroce Reacts to the Sudden Death of Jo Lindner

Seth Feroce reacts to the passing of Jo Lindner.

IFBB Pro and bodybuilding personality Seth Feroce recently shared his thoughts on the untimely passing of Jo Lindner AKA Joesthetics. Always thoughtful and outspoken, Feroce appeared to be particularly gutted by the death of the 30-year-old bodybuilding and fitness personality.

It appears that in modern bodybuilding, many athletes end up passing away far too soon. Over the last few years, we have seen quite a large number of bodybuilding and fitness enthusiast lose their allies before the age of 40. That’s a very concerning statistic, indeed. While sickness as well as other outside factors have been the cause of some of these deaths in bodybuilding, many are due to factors directly related to bodybuilding. In particular the usage of different kinds of gear (anabolics, diuretics, insulin, etc.). Whether it’s been from natural causes or unnatural, we’ve been seeing so many athletes passing away at a rate that is quite alarming.

The untimely death of Jo Lindner, popularly known as Joesthetics, has shaken the bodybuilding and fitness community to its core. While his death was been said to be due to an aneurysm, some have speculated that other factors were responsible.

Seth Feroce Shares His Thoughts on Jo Lindner

Seth Feroce recently weighed in on the passing of Jo Lindner. Feroce was certainly perturbed by the sudden nature of the young bodybuilder’s death.

“Another bodybuilder’s dead, Jo Lindner, Joesthetics, another one that sucks. Another guy gone way too soon, another good guy gone way too soon,” said Seth Feroce. “I never met Joe. I didn’t know him personally but I never met one person that had anything bad to say about that man.

“We were on vacation when he passed. I’m not going to lie, it stopped me in my f**king tracks like oh b***h, Jo was 30 years old.”

As far as the cause of death for Jo Lindner, Seth Feroce is choosing not to speculate.

“I don’t care what you do it’s your life. But what I do care about is whenever people talk sh*t, make a bunch of claims that they don’t know f**k all about about another man’s life whenever he’s passed.

“I don’t know if [steroids] had anything to do with his death, not going to speculate because I haven’t heard anything behind the scenes.

“People can speculate all they want. They can say there’s a reason that he passed and is that reason ever going to be found out? We don’t know nor does it really matter because there’s another good man gone from the planet.”

Leaving The World Better Than He Found It

Seth Feroce continued to reflect on Jo Lindner and the positive impact he had on the fitness and bodybuilding community. Feroce was keen to zero in on the fact that Lindner was well like and that no one had a bad word to say about the young man.

“We are in this community to become better people. We don’t pass judgment on other people because of what they do with their lives. When someone chooses to do whatever they want to in their life, that’s what they do. With Joe like I said I never heard a bad thing about that man. In an industry full of fake, ignorant, dick, douchebag people, to not hear one bad thing about that man, says a lot about his character and the people he influenced and why so many people loved him.

“A lot of young men want to become better versions of themselves because of Joe.”
