BUT he has grown leaps and bounds,arms are some of the best in the sport,conditioning is very good,delts are thick a bit narrow dosen't matter,and good set of legs and hams.all in all has progressed well not in a way kev,vince,flex,c.c,has like winning every show.but times change theres no grand prix tour ,and shows are spaced out different so competing all yr is tough for bigger guys,but this guy will win an arnold or 2.

phil... by far
.. frank has thick arms...
but phil beats him on bi's and tris.. peaked seperated...
tris... even worse full seperated.....not even close
if this was a who has better forearms then i'd say frank but overall....
not even in the same league

Frank is SQUAD approved. Phil is not >:(

Frank was never SQUAD approved....he was being reviewed and it was decided he didn't qualify.

In terms of bodybuilding standards, Phil Heath has "better" arms.

But I'd rather look like Frank any day.

I agree that by BB standards Heath wins, but McGrath's arms have the more rugged density and dryess of the 70s, which looks a lot more impressive to me. Heath has a bloated look in comparison. That's aside from the forearms where McGrath easily wins.

Heath's arms look odd to me; I think he's injecting synthol in his tris. The only other guys that come to mind with that triceps shape are those who inject.

I'm sincerely doubting that Phil let you measure his arms.

I feel differently now, having seen the kind of shape Phil has brought to the stage over the last 2 years. I'd say his arms are bigger and freakier than Frank's arms, even though Frank is no slouch himself.

I agree.. mcgrath's arms look *better*

heaths arms look *insane*.. its not a desirable look imo.

Frank's arms are awesome, but they really can't be compared with Phil's.  Phil has much better separation throughout the arms.  In fact, I don't think anyone competing today has separation and striations throughout their upper arms like Phil Heath.

Sick pic...

Frank's arms are hard and vascular, but not as separated and dry as Phil's.  Phil clearly has the better set of arms for competitive bodybuilding.
