Hey guys.. for those of you who follow pro bodybuilding here's the latest scoop.

Lee is out of the Arnold Classic due to heart problems. This IS NOT due to drug use, but his heart is enlarged and he has an infected artery. That is why he placed so low at the Ironman last week. His heart was only pumping at 37% capacity.. so he couldn't give it 100%.

Hopefully he will recover swiftly!
