The Title Of Standard-Bearer Has Become A Joke.

  Dexter Jackson in 2008 and now Phil Heath in 2011. Anyone can be Mr.Olympia. Guys with no real muscle thickness, imbalanced muscle proportions and serious structure flaws can be the standard-bearers now. The era of the great Mr.Olympias(Dorian, Ronnie, Sergio, etc) is over. The era where Mr.Olympia was a man possesed of super-Human muscle thickness and quality(density and detail) with almost no muscular imbalance or structural flaw is over. The Mr.Olympia title has become a title on the same level as the NPC Nationals or lesser pro shows like the Ironman Pro Invitational.

[The Abdominal Snoman]

It all stopped with Ronnie. He lifted big powerful weights. Jay put on his eye shadow and went to the gym 3 to 6 times a day lifting to 75% of max and calling it a workout. And now the rest are following suit. Phil being one of them. Guys in his gym say that he has trouble with 50 pound dumbbel curls on months that he's not using 5 to 8 anadrol a day. The world has changed.

That gets to me more than anything

I think the Mr Olympia should have far superior proportions and physique flow in conjunction with everything else
