Phil Heath lives in Las Vegas, and lives in Jay Cutlers guest house. So that is why he is getting so much bigger. He is learning from Jay.He told me he was skipping the Mr O just so he could pt some more size on, and work on his overall physique. He is a great athlete, and only will get better year after year because he is taking his time, and rushing anything. Give this guy another 3 years and he will probably be one of the top 4 bodybuilders in the World.He has great symtery, and he knows how to come in hard, which is something 75% of pro bodybuilders, dont do.It seems most pro bodybuilders come in hard when they win there pro card at the USA or Nationals, then they go down hill from there. Look at Bob Chic, Adrese ElWard, Melvin Anthony, and Johnny Jackson. Its like once they turn pro they dont come in nearly as hard. Yes they are bigger, but not nearly as hard. Bob Chic was shredded, and even did a vaccum pose when he one the Mr USA , but never did match that condition as a pro.Bob is a nice guy, and has done alot for bodybuilding, but he should have come in harder when he competed as a pro.The Same with problem with Adrise, when he won the USA, he was shipped to the bone, stridated glutes, and now, he just a symetrical but soft bodybuilder.
The bottom line is Phil Heath is a nice guy, and has a game plan unlike aot of bodybuilders. He is in it for the long haul, and I do beleive that will pay off big time in the years to come
