"Phil heath of this year is nowhere near the phil heath of next year."

[adipo8]

The exact same bullshit he said last year when he took an entire year off to get ready for this year's Arnold where he looked exactly the same as last year. If you're going to take an entire year off you better show up with some improvement.

Maybe this year he'll make the improvements he didn't last year.

And why is going to compete in the Ironman?  I'm assuming he's going to compete at the Arnold too, so that means he's going to compete in Feb and March and then compete again in the Olympia in Sept.

Why not just wait until next year's Europa or Montreal and qualify there instead of dieting down in the spring and again in the fall.

He makes no sense whatsoever.

He did improved however his competition was much more seasoned!

he will never be mr o, just flownder around the top 5 with 1 or 2 top 3 placings!

just bad genetics for what the mr o is all about "width and mass in the back"!

I can see him winning the arnold though when the big guys of the next era sit out of it !

Unless they take it in a new direction, which has happened before.

Remember, Frank zane and Chris Dickerson have won the olympia against guys way bigger than them

Agreed. He made zero improvements and even got worse in a few areas. If he takes time off and actually makes improvements then it's great but if he takes that time off and does nothing like this last time - what's the point?

Yeah, but that 25 years ago
