Popular bodybuilder Kali Muscle was reportedly hospitalized after he allegedly passed out while working out at a gym in California.
According to TMZ, Muscle — born Chuck Kirkendall — lost consciousness during a workout at a California fitness center, per information shared by his ex-wife. He was said to have been rushed to the hospital for treatment, though she reportedly does not know what caused him to faint or what his current condition is.
She also revealed that Kirkendall previously suffered a heart attack and had a stent placed in his heart to help restore proper blood flow. She was likely referencing the moment in 2021 when he posted a video publicly announcing the heart attack, claiming it happened because his left artery was completely blocked.
“Health is everything,” he said in the video. “God is using me as an example.”
Beyond heart-related issues, Kirkendall has also spoken openly in the past about struggling with edema, a condition that caused swelling in his feet and ankles due to fluid buildup.
Kirkendall is widely known as one of the biggest gym influencers on YouTube and TikTok. He has been active on YouTube for over 15 years and has built an audience of nearly 4 million subscribers.
