On the July 7, 2023, episode of The Mike O’Hearn Show published on the Generation Iron YouTube channel, O’Hearn says comments flooded in on social media, sounding off about the potential cause of Lindner’s death.
O’Hearn invited Dr. Rand McClain on his show to discuss McClain’s new book, Cheating Death. McClain’s work focuses on rejuvenation, regenerative, cosmetic, and family medicine. His book is intended to offer insight into how to improve the quality of their lives for longevity.

Examining Jo Lindner’s Passing
O’Hearn and Dr. McClain sifted through the details of Lindner’s reported aneurysm and subsequent death. Dr. McClain says he’s unsure if Lindner ever stated he took anabolic steroids or if it was public knowledge, though Lindner is on video detailing his steroid usage with Bradley Martyn on Martyn’s podcast, Raw Talk.
Dr. McClain believes there was a familial component at play. For example, suppose there’s a first-degree family member who had a history of aneurysms. If that were the case, it increases the likelihood of Lindner being susceptible to an aneurysm.
“It would be a reach to believe that a 30-year-old would have extant coronary artery disease,” says Dr. McClain, who suggested people in that age demographic might have hypertension. However, the likelihood of that type of disease having been present in Lindner’s body is low due to Lindner’s impeccable shape. Per McClain, if Lindner had hypertension or plaque in his arteries, then, at most, the theoretical addition of anabolic steroids “contributed to a pre-existing condition.”
To state that that’s [a pre-existing heart disease] what caused it…is really pretty far-fetched.

Dr. McClain shifted to discussing anabolic steroids regarding longevity and well-being. He offers the example of an 80-year-old falling down stairs but not dying until later contracting pneumonia while in the hospital. While no longer considered an “accidental death,” Dr. McClain believes the cause is still the original accident.
Dr. McClain believes anabolic steroids could be pivotal in hip and other tissue regeneration. “If we can use something as simple [as anabolic steroids for regeneration]…it’s not dangerous like people think when applied properly.” Dr. McClain continues, “I think we’ll find that it helps with the functional muscle that needs to be added to keep those of us that are getting frail naturally…from having a fall.”
O’Hearn and Dr. McClain discussed hormone replacement therapy (HRT), testosterone replacement therapy (TRT), and getting screened at a young age. They implore people, bodybuilders and non-bodybuilders alike, to have their bloodwork checked to ensure their internals are healthy. O’Hearn repeats, “Nothing is promised,” suggesting that checking in with one’s physician and researching family health history is essential for long-term health.
