Body Building and Hight Blood Pressure and Cholesterol?

He is on steroids (to build muscle) but he is not on them constantly. The doctor said he has high BP and cholesterol and that he will have to take the med for the rest of his life.

He still continues to body build.

Is this sort of thing common with body builders? You hear stories all the time of body builders dying of heart attacks and stuff and im wondering if this is the router my dads on now.
