Phil's condition gets worse ever year.
It's shocking how poor he looks this year compared to even two years ago.

Ronnie had something like this going on.

The general consensus has always been that Phil is unbeatable - Very capable of winning 6, 8 or 10 Olympia titles, as long as he avoids injury.

Do people still feel this way?   Or seeing him outclassed by Kai on both conditioning (By a small amount) and overall muscle (by a great amount), is this still the case?

Is it possible that Phil's just hit the natural ceiling of his bodybuilding potential?   Kai spent probably a DECADE in the natural bodybuilding world, getting every bit of muscle out of his potential, before he got on the super supplements... We all know Phil went from first show to winning pro card in what, less than 2 years?

Guess thats what happens when you jump straight to a Mr. O stack.

I mean, we all watched Ronnie regress, Jay, Branch.... something these guys are doing at this level blows them up and then very quickly starts tearing them down...

Phil skipped the whole part where he learned his body, skipped building muscle with only food and basic gear,

he jumped straight to the regression stack.

The candle that burns twice as bright, burns out twice as fast.

rofl, considering phil is taking his time off and still palumboism is in da house.  if he competed more often he would be now total wreck. Kid is all drugs and his body is already crying for help.

You can
tell 12 weeks out how small he was and that he probably was going to double the dose of everything leading up to the show to play catch up. The amount of shit he must pump into his body in such a short time is probably unheard of.

Kai was a natural competitor for a decade.  He MAXIMIZED his potential, naturally. 

Phil went from shooting hoops to winning a pro card in what, 18 months? 

There's just no comparison there.   We all know the "ceiling" that forms, as soon as someone starts using.  At the very top levels, we see it now... Phil's been running the Jay Cutler "all-out" stack for almost a decade now... it's going to affect him, just like eveyrone else.

Throw in the stress that comes from starting a business - in the supp industry - and palumboism is going to accelerate.

I'm going to be the first to say it - I predict Phil will "take a break to focus on business" after ekeing out a win.  He'll preserve his legacy by not getting 3rd next year.  He'll make a killing in the supp game, and keep his health too.  We'll never see Phil with full-blown palumboism.  He's too smart for that, he refuses to do anything he can't be #1 at.

Why does he need to break his back on conditioning? He's going to win anyway.

Post by: hench on September 20, 2014, 09:56:19 AM
i really wonder if the winner is predetermined what the hell would they do if phil was in the same shape as a worst kovaks or palumbo condition, would they run with that or think shit we really can't give him this.
Right now he clearly doesn't deserve it so how far would they push the integrity

Post by: el numero uno on September 20, 2014, 09:56:38 AM
Haha I knew that this insecure diva was all drugs. But I didn't expect him to look like $ht so quickly. Unfortunately he will still win, they will never handed it to Kai. And as much as I dislike Phil I think he can still be Mr O the next 3 years. He may be off this year but will learn from his mistakes.

The Mr. O is now presenting its worst-ever lineup of competitors.

Heath's only gift is his quick response to mountains of gear. But that quickness also extends to his advance towards Palumboism and absolute ruin.

What a joke.

The good thing is, it is reversible. (the distention)

After lee Haney won 8 straight every time there's a new champ "the general consensus" says exact same thing I remember when Dorian won his 3rd in 94' (20years ago) he was very capable to win 8 or 10.

who's protocols are known for getting people huge and a gut.

Cool whomever made this.
You can see the progression.
They show more opened up big.
His abs in 2011 really ad to his FDB and FLS poses.
I watched the 1st Colorado show Phil won the other day
and he started with a good set of abs. A full 6 pack.

Maybe Phil is just constipated? That would explain the ever worsening "abs" and awkward facial expressions...
