In late July 2011 he came to more general media attention when The Sydney Morning Herald published an article about the arrest of his older brother, Said Shavershian, for illegal possession of anabolic steroids. On 5 August 2011, whilst on holiday in Thailand, Aziz Shavershian suffered a heart attack and died at the age of 22.Shavershian was an ethnic Kurd and was born in Moscow, Russia, the youngest son of Maiane Iboian, who works in cardiology, and Sergei Shavershian.

Bodybuilding

Before becoming a bodybuilder, Shavershian had been described as a "skinny kid" and an ectomorph.[Once he completed secondary school, Shavershian who was inspired by his bodybuilder brother, joined a local gym and began learning about nutrition and training, and applying it to his pursuit of becoming a bodybuilder. He would spend three to four hours a day training in the gym.[18][19] His favourite professional bodybuilders included actor/politician Arnold Schwarzenegger and Frank Zane.[18]

In an interview with bodybuilding website, Simplyshredded.com, Shavershian recalls that he originally wanted to become a bodybuilder to "impress girls". He says he would look at pictures of "shredded" bodybuilders and tell himself that he would one day be like them. Almost four years into training, Shavershian stated that:

I can safely say that my motivation to train goes far beyond that of merely impressing people, it is derived from the feeling of having set goals and achieving them and outdoing myself in the gym. I absolutely love it, the feeling of pushing out that last rep, and getting skin tearing pumps is something I don’t see myself without.

Prior to his death, Shavershian was the poster boy of a subculture of amateur bodybuilding in Australia, dubbed "aesthetics",[20] which he had made popular. He had established his own protein label, "Protein of the Gods", released in June 2011; a clothing line and on 17 May 2011, Zyzz's Bodybuilding Bible was released, based on a compilation of bodybuilding knowledge he acquired over the four years of training. He asserted that the internet helped build up his brand, and it was ultimately made possible through the use of social media.

Alleged steroid abuse

On 14 July 2011, Shavershian's brother Said was arrested for possession of anabolic steroids,[8] to which after Aziz's death he pleaded guilty. The Sydney Morning Herald covered the case, and included a photo of Aziz.[8] Aziz objected to the use of his picture to illustrate what was essentially an article on the misuse of anabolic steroids.

When asked by The Daily Telegraph, Aziz denied ever using steroids, and claimed that his body shape was due to hard work in the gym and a strict diet. According to The Sydney Morning Herald, the company which employed Aziz as a stripper maintained that he was a lovely guy, "aside from the steroids". Shavershian often used phrases such as "riding bicycles" that according to The Daily Telegraph is "gym slang for using a cycle of steroids".

Death and aftermath

On 5 August 2011, Aziz Shavershian suffered a heart attack in a sauna, while on holiday in Pattaya, Thailand.[26] He was taken to a hospital, where doctors were unable to revive him.
