phil is crushing them all in that vid. he looks fucking big as shit, not narrow at all
his clavicles are still narrower than Dex and everyone else.
But he's learning to pose wide, keeping that flat illusion by holding arms correctly next to body. Shoulders coming up big time.
Phil is making improvements and still 5 years away from peaking, if he keeps the belly in check. Dex and friends are making much smaller improvements each year. Even if dex beats Phil in completeness, Phil could win the whole show by shocking the shit out of everyone with his improvements.
There hasn't been a lot of excitement since ronnie got beat. 07 was kinda blah, and 08 was dexter's year but nothing earth-shattering. Phil might bring that back.
It's hard to bet against Phil in 2009, it really is. Everyone says 2010 is his year, but who on that stage can beat Phil? (maybe a suicidal shredded kai, but not with that citrus luggage...)
