RIP Doug!! Im saddened to write this, but sadly Doug passed away recently according to his wife's Instagram account. Being a addict myself, clean ror 13 years now, Dougs story really spoke to me! He helped me with some training tips over Facebook! Please keep his friends and family in your prayers!!
-
I saw Doug at 6am everyday at Golds for over a decade. He was a light, always helping others be their best selves. God bless him. Rest in Peace Doug. 🙏🏽🕊️
-
Rest in peace, Doug, thanks for your honesty
-
This guy's self awareness and overall maturity is incredible. You can tell he's done a lot of self reflection, he's able to talk about himself and his good and bad characteristics in a very articulate way! Bravo dude!
-
Despite some negative stereotypes, a lot of bodybuilders are down-to-earth dudes that are kind and gentle.
-
As a former drug addict and gym nut; this guy’s story spoke to me. “Finding out that I could have control over one thing in my life.” That was so true
-
Love how articulate he is! Incredible interview, story, and person! 🏋♂️
-
He was a trainer at Power House Gym in Torrance. This guy is super cool, always helpful to not just his clients but to everyone in the gym super positive attitude brings something special to gym. Thanks Doug you’re fuckin awesome homie
-
As a gym owner going thru COVID and all the ups and downs of owning a business. I got back into bodybuilding in my 40s because it was the only thing I could control: what I ate and training. I won my pro card in 2022. Thanks for posting this vid
-
I like seeing people on SWU who get out of their predicament and step up to be somebody better. Well done, Doug!
-
I know Doug from my 5 years training at Golds Venice. One of the nicest, hard working dudes you'll ever meet. I wish him nothing but happiness and success
-
Started working out at Gold's top of the year. Doug couldn't have been a kinder guy. Nicest dude ever, and super empathetic. A true loss for the gym . Great guy. Rest in peace Doug.
-
Years ago a new guy turned up at our gym. He’d just quit amphetamines cold turkey after a longterm addiction. I have never in my life seen someone work so hard and get so strong in so little time. Was great to see him channel his energy and addictive personality into fitness and strength.
-
I can tell that this man wanted to be a writer, he’s really well spoken.
-
This is a solid dude, man. When he said he still thinks about his dad every day, THAT is so real.......I shed a tear when he said that...... You can tell he has done a lot of work on his own. He knows the lingo of self help and therapy.
-
Doug Fruchey , he's been competing a lot this past year
-
As a fellow bodybuilder, this was great to watch. Thank you for the variety of individuals you interview!
-
A breath of fresh air, more of this please Mark 😁
-
So glad you recorded this before his passing. I’m shook by this news. Such a wonderful genuine guy.
-
At last, someone being open and honest about actually enjoying being a bodybuilder, and embracing all that goes with it. Great interview, great guy!
