Announcing McMillan’s death on Tuesday, his longtime sponsor Black Skull USA posted an image of the New Jersey-born bodybuilder on Instagram with the words “RIP”. “We regret to inform you that our friend and brother Cedric McMillan passed away today,” the sponsor said in a caption of the 44-year-old and former Arnold Classic winner. He ‘fought the good fight’ and now he rests.” His family and “close sources” later confirmed the news to bodybuilding news website Generation Iron, which noted that McMillan “was very open about his past heart issues”. That included a “near death experience” that forced him to take a break from competing last year, including in the Legion Sports Fest Pro and the Arnold Classic competitions.
