First off congrats to Phil Heath he deserved the win last night without a doubt. Very round great separation and very lean. We have a new look for bodybuilding and I personally am not a fan of this look. It's a softer almost smooth look and with the GH thickening the skin and the insulin marbleizing the muscle with fat there really is no other way for the muscle to look.
Jay screwed up at the last minute with diuretics. He turned things around as I said he would, but too little too late. Jay is NOT done. He could come back next year and win BUT he needs to drop some bodyweight. Five to ten pounds would do his upper body good.
I have no idea where Dennis James says that Phil is the best ever Mr Olympia. No offense to Phil. Some of you guys need to go to youtube and check out some of the videos of Coleman at his best, Yates, Wheeler and Levrone etc. These guys were the top guys ever. It's no surprise that the Olympia is kind of an open for anyone to win contest these days. Every year up until Coleman retired you saw these guys get bigger and better and there is simply no one around at the moment to bring anything better to the stage and the judges know this. I can only hop that someday someone brings back the 90's look to the stage. It may not turn things around, but at least it will make it more interesting. I personally would like to see Lionel Beyeke fill this spot. Time will tell.
THE THING IS PHIL HEATH HAS THAT GLORIFIED GYM RAT LOOK. WHY DO PEOPLE GO TO THE GYM? CHEST & BI'S RIGHT.WHAT DOES THE AVERAGE FOLK GAZE OUT IN TERMS OF BODY PARTS? ARMS.
THE THING IS PHIL IS THE BEST AT THAT FOR GENETICS(NOT CHEST BUT FREAKY ARMS), FOR AFFORDING HIGH GH DOSES, MORE AAS, MORE INSULIN.
GO AROUND ASK THE AVERAGE GYM RAT IF THEY WANT BIGGER LEGS OR DELTS OR CHEST OR ARMS...MOST WILL SAY ARMS OR CHEST. HE'S JUST USING MORE, HIGHER QUALITY, AND BETTER GENETICALLY IN THAT AREA THEN THEM.
IF YOU WANT A LOOK BACK,YOU WANT THAT LEVRONE LOOK BACK.
