Jason Lowe competed at the Olympia multiple times during his career.
IFBB Pro bodybuilder Jason Lowe has passed away at 38 years old. Lowe, who competed on the biggest stages in the sport during his career, suffered a heart attack. The news was shared his his wife, Ashley, on Thursday.
The sudden death of Lowe is one that has hit the bodybuilding world hard and many competitors have shared condolences. According to RXMuscle, Lowe was training in his garage when he dropped. An autopsy has not been done yet so there is no official cause of death.
Ashley Lowe shared a heartfelt message about the person that her husband was:
“Today will be the hardest day of my life. I don’t know if words will ever be enough to hold what you meant to me, because they all feel so small in comparison. You made me a better version of myself, and you were going to be the absolute best dad. Saying that I’m devastated doesn’t even begin to touch the depth of this loss. I’m sitting here in our backyard writing this in your Olympia jacket, trying to feel close to you, trying to make sense of a world that already feels different without you in it.”
Jason Lowe began his bodybuilding career over a decade ago. He competed as recently as 2025 and shared a training video on social media the day before his death. Lowe had earned multiple top-three finishes in his career while taking the Olympia stage twice.
