Phil Heath EASILY repping out with 4 plates on each side

Not with the same cadence or range of motion they weren't...

not true.. actually in his famous video his heaviest chest set on the incline was 190 kg and his partner was touching the bar from the very first rep!!.. and he was not bending his back a lot while doing rowing which makes it much easier (i do it the same way)..

yates was one of the best ever to train hard but he was not at all one of the strongest..

[SuperTed]

In my opinion, Phil Heath lifts much smarter that Ronnie or Dorian and will not end up wrecked like them. I thinks he understands what needs to happen in the gym and the occasional photo shoot is where he bumps up the weights a little to add some "drama" for the camera. Smart trainer.

Heath knows that injuries can occur at any moment so trains in a manner that most reduces that possibility while still providing the stimulation for growth/maintenance. 
Dillett was similar.
These guys aren't weak. No one who carries so much muscle on their frame is going to be weak.
Heath just trains smartly and because of this, don't expect him to be losing his Olympia crown any time soon.

because of this thread i did my chest workout today on the same machine as phil,.. 2 sets in the incline and 2 on the flat instead of my normal free weights routine

Nuthin but a peanut!

use a tape measure to record your new pectoral growth.  You should be able to add 2" in just 8 weeks.

Craig Titus would wear a weight belt/back brace to get a drink of water.   

Phil would probably squat 1000 in his posing trunks if gym policy allowed for it.

Phil has the emotional maturity of a child #makingmadmoney #eatthishaterz #livinthelife #thegift

Heath needs to do something to fix that weak chest. When he first started out as a rookie it was that apparent, but now it is. He of course cannot make it wider, but he can make it thicker.

His chest is plenty thick.. you need glasses .. the clavicles are narrow and the ribcage insertions are fairly short but he developed it as much as possible.. looks fine onstage

I guess you forgot the pic from 2012, about 5 weeks out from the Mr. O...everybody was impressed by his thicker chest.
There is always room for improvement. What you are saying is like saying that his arms can't be bigger. Sure his chest can be more developed. Dude is is only about. 240ish-250. He is just hitting his stride.
People were saying the same thing you are saying back in 2007.

 Craig actually tore his pec benching over 500 pounds. Those who trained with him said was one of the strongest pros around

He was also one of the most murderous pros around.

JK, Titus is innocent #freetitus #titusinnocence #hedidnotmurderandrapethatwench

I don't know about that story. I think he tore it while as an amateur...and after that he was scare to train heavy again...he was known as having one of the weakest chests.
Now, Kevin had tore a pec, and he kept benching heavy after that.

[old-school-lifter]

Yates , for his bodyweight was not strong.

Kevin levrone absolutely killed Dorian on benching

Branch for his body wt is very very strong

Stan efferding kills them all strength wise

[LiftEaTsLeEpRePeAt]

Just as strong as Coleman or yates.  Heck, given his compact frame and efficient clavicle width, he might be pound-for-pound STRONGER than those two.  Food for thought.

is this a big deal?? I can do 4 plates a side
