Bodybuilder Jodi Vance has died aged 20 after suffering a sudden fatal heart attack.
News of Vance’s death was confirmed by her family, who shared a heartfelt post on her Instagram account.
They told her followers: “From Jodi’s family and loved ones: for those that haven’t heard yet, Jodi passed away yesterday afternoon.
“Her heart stopped due to complications of severe dehydration. Despite all efforts by the hospital, they were unable to revive her.
“She was a beautiful person inside and out and she will be missed every single day.”
They added: “This was sudden and unexpected. Please give her family time to process this loss in peace. If anyone takes anything from this, please put your heath first.”
Vance’s trainer, Justin Mihaly, shared further details with the permission of the bodybuilder’s mother, Jenny.
He claimed that Vance “made a significant error that should not be taken lightly” and had been using “dangerous” substances to “improve her physique” for an upcoming expo, which had led to her fatal dehydration without his “knowledge or approval”.
Mihaly told his followers: “You’re welcome to direct your blame towards me if thats how you believe we can best honor Jodi.”
He explained: “Jodi used two extremely hazardous substances to improve her physique,” claiming she did so without telling him or her family that she was using them.

“The health had become quite concerning,” Mihaly said of Vance’s condition in recent months. “Many people who loved Jodi tried to get her to pull off the gas pedal a bit.
“Her work ethic was actually second to nobody. It was so hard getting her to pull back.”
He added that her vitals which were taken at the hospital appeared to show that she had taken a substance she’d previously expressed interest in, and which he’d warned her against using.
“We now know that it was being used,” Mihaly claimed.
Elevated levels of potassium in her blood showed an “insanely high” reading, indicating that she had likely used a specific diuretic, according to Mihaly.
He claimed that the diuretic “combined with the harsh fat-burning drug” likely caused Vance to “code”, meaning her heart stopped.
Our thoughts remain with Vance’s family and loved ones at this devastating time.
