Prep With Purpose: The May Family

ARE YOU NEW TO #PrepWithPurpose?! For backstory on what this is all about please read the original blog entry and/or Instagram Post. 

Hey Fit Fam,

One of the videographers I worked with at GAC (Anthony May) is enduring the worst kind of pain anyone could ever experience ... one of his sons has died and another is in a coma after taking a LEGAL and VERY DANGEROUS synthetic opioid that can be purchased on the internet!!!

This Prep With Purpose we will obviously be lifting up and for Anthony's youngest son who is still in the hospital and remembering the entire family as they grieve ... but I also want this post to serve as a PSA. Please share this with everyone you know that has children.



The substance is known on the streets as U4, Pink or Pinky, U-47700 is a synthetic opioid 50 times more powerful than morphine.  When THIS article was written it had claimed over 80 lives that year alone, including rock and roll icon Prince.  Please read the article to fully educate yourself, but it says that the chemical was developed in 1976 by the pharmaceutical company Upjohn, but U4 never went through human trials and is categorized as a research drug. It is a relatively cheap drug, that can be ordered online. It is made in underground labs in China are producing it and its purity and potency will come in wild variances. Drug dealers will also take a substances like U4, and “step on it,” dilute it with another even cheaper drug, to make higher profits.


I ask you to please join me in LIFTING UP AND FOR Anthony's son who is fighting for life as well as him and his entire family during this tragic time. A Go Fund Me page has been set up for the family. I do personally know Anthony so I can vouch for them. If you can .. please make a donation. But even if you can't .. thoughts and prayers are free! So please join me in lifting up and for them and also spreading the word about this lethal drug.

I love you Anthony. This week every rep and stride will be for your sons!!
