Intro
Bostin Loyd was a young bodybuilder and fitness coach who had a very aggressive approach to the bodybuilding lifestyle throughout his 20s. Known as a very outspoken person who was open about his steroid use, he liked to experiment on his own body and push things to an extreme. His peak stats are listed at 6'1'' and 280 pounds. In this article, we will go over his life, steroid use, and his death.
Early life
Loyd was born in March of 1992 in California, and his father owned a gym and was very much into the bodybuilding lifestyle. He has said on many occasions that bodybuilding is in his blood, he loved everything about it, and felt a lot of pressure to be successful at it.
Bodybuilding
When he was only 21 years old, Loyd won the NPC Contra Costa in California and quickly gained a huge social media following among young males. Many were drawn to his openness about anabolic steroids, since talking about them was considered taboo for many pro bodybuilders who were scared to lose sponsorships. Others did not want people to think that they achieved their physiques from steroids to prevent people from labeling them 'cheaters'.
Loyd enjoyed competing and had a lot of fun with it. Here is a video of him in 2013 with his future wife Ariella Palumbo at Muscle Beach competing at a Joe Wheatley show.
In 2015, Loyd got first place in the Men's Super heavyweight division at Montanari Bros Powerhouse Classic. You can watch that video here
The next year he competed at the NPC Kevin Gore Border Klash and got first place in the Super heavyweight division.
Business ventures
Loyd started to gain more fame due to his videos where he showed himself injecting steroids openly and also posting his huge steroid cycles for all to see. Although this angered many in the industry for various reasons, it also was viewed by some as 'honest'.
Although those videos were taken down, you can still see some clips here
From there, Loyd was able to build a huge following among curious and aspiring young bodybuilders and sell his various products including peptides, contest prep plans, phone consults, and supplement protocols. He also sold some clothing under his Team3cc company.

Disputes with other bodybuilders
Loyd liked to pick fights with other bodybuilders to gain more followers and cause drama. He admitted the reason for this was he enjoyed the banter and it helped increase sales. The most infamous fight was with Rich Piana which got extremely personal. The fight involved an ex of Loyd's, penis size, and a dispute over business. In the end, most agreed that Piana got the most of Loyd and showed him up big time. You can watch the Piana attack here which was pretty brutal
Loyd also got into it with John Meadows who was considered one of the class acts of the industry. Loyd bashed Meadows as not accomplishing enough compared to him at his age, and Meadows fired back by saying "you won't make it to my age". You can read the exchange which was screenshot Click here
Loyd, overall by those who knew him, is considered a friendly and good-natured guy, but he was always up for a fight if he felt slighted by someone or wanted to boost his clicks.
Family
Loyd was married to Ariella Palumbo, had a child, 4 dogs, and 1 cat. He lived in rural Florida near Tampa.
Death
Back in October of 2020, he was diagnosed with stage 5 kidney failure which he blamed on a peptide called Adipotide which is a fat burner.
Early reports say he refused dialysis and decided to treat his condition mostly on his own and ignored his doctor's advice. His attitude was the doctors and his insurance company were no help to him and he chose instead to treat his ailment with peptides and things like EPO, glutathione, and stem cells. His last update on February 22 said: "I wish I had not put myself in this situation but unfortunately I've made some mistakes and now it's time to try and heal the wounds".
On February 25th, 2022 it was reported that Loyd had died at only 29 years old. He had passed out in his home, after going to the gym, and paramedics tried CPR and took him to the hospital and he did not make it.
A heart attack appears to be the early culprit, although the kidney issues likely contributed.

Opinion
Loyd is a guy who I have talked to personally so I have a lot of mixed emotions about his death fluctuating mostly between anger and sadness. I feel like he was led in the wrong direction by several in the industry, and by the time he realized this, it was too late to turn back around. I get the sense he relished having people tell him he was over doing things and wanted to prove them wrong. We see this rebelious nature among many in bodybuilding.
He should have trusted his doctors and accepted that he would have to change his bodybuilding lifestyle and tone it down. Others must learn from his mistakes or they run the risk of ending up dead very young.
Evolutionary.org
Loyd posted that his favorite website online was Evolutionary.org and it was where he got a lot of his information from.
He was also a guest on the Evolutionary.org podcast 3 times which is hosted by Stevesmi
