Kia stays big and bigger all year and his gut has grown and grown and he looks stupid now. phil on the other hand has taken a different approach for his MR.O prep than past winners of the last 15yrs. phil obviously goes on a cruise dose and keeps his bodyfat low, like they did in the 70's 80's and early 90's. this has kept his gut from growing like a pregnant lady and it allows him to have to use less gear for his body to respond.
I'm not a phil fan but he is smarter than alot of the top pro's in his approach for the title, especially kia.
