Phil Heath post Mr Olympia photo shoot (video)

[The_Punisher]

no wonder this was one of the worst Mr O show in memory. they kept rewarding Bloated Toads with Throphies

No comparison.

when you see the vids from the late 90s early 2000 it really brings it home to you how far the sport has regressed,

[anabolichalo]

nobody comes close



coleman #1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Jizmo]

its insane, in these 90s and early 2000s videos something magical happens when they flex...

look at the shawn ray video... he looks ripped when hes relaxed but when hes flexing its like an instant photoshop on his whole body... suddenly veins pop everywhere, striations dig through the skin from the inside... its insane. same with levrone and ronnie.

its such a unique look. phil looks like shit compared to that. completely inappropriate as mister olympia.

im a big ramy fan but he REALLY looks soft in that video... imagine ramy with a conditioning like shawn ray in that video above... he'd be the second ronnie...

I don't know what happened to bodybuilding but, it is in a sad state.
They all look horrible Phil kai Roelly wolf etc
90's bodybuilding shits on bodybuilding today

I'm a heath fan, but even I must admit he looks just terrible in the photo shoot. Arms look smaller, gut is huge, abs are non existent. Legs and back still look ok though.
I laughed a bit when the photographer kept saying "abs. Abs." and heath couldn't flex them any more, they just weren't there!

I think that if Phil, Kai, Roelly, Wolf, Rhoden were on what the 90s guys were on, that they'd look better than they do now. Remember, they still are the top guys, the cream rises to the top no matter what, it's just a different quality.

they would have to ramp up their workout intensity a few notches

[deceiver]

I don't know what happened either, whether it's drugs, genetics, work ethic... Or everything alltogether. It is apparent that bodybuilding has regressed. Levrone, Ray and Coleman were all "huge", they had enormous muscle mass. They looked like comic book characters. Bodybuilders nowadays appear more like disfigured creatures from horrors. They looked like characters from Marvel comics or Dragon Ball now they look like they were from Alien vs Predator.

Out of all of them, Kai seems to have the "Ronnie Colemansque" workout intensity. I am a Phil Heath fan, but it seems like if he were to train with Shawn Ray back then, or even Flex, he'd be saying "No mas!" after 25-30 mins.

if he's going out next year then the cock suckers at IFBB are definitely going to hand him a retirement gift. mark my words.

I think people want him to retire.

[NarcissisticDeity]

He's not retiring , he's going to make a run at Ronnies/Haney's record. Who can stop him? 

[Wiggs]

At this rate, his body wont hold up.he wont match or surpass their record.

You hope...Kobra Kai is no more.

Palumboism

Ramy got severely hosed, once again.

Maybe a bit softer, but you have to say something when a guy is around 300lbs.

Ramy looks great. Truly big. Powerful look. In contrast to the frail baloon-type look that is o so common.

Well, Ramy's got the late 90s-early 2000s Flex Wheeler balloon delts.

couldnt be further from the truth

winklaar has a powerful look, and so does JOJ and dexter

[Papper]

I don't have a problem with his delts. They look pretty hard and separated and in proportion to his torso. Fits in from the back and the front.

I think you can find "balloon" delts on most modern bb if you want to.

[Ronnie Rep]

everyone is admitting this now.  And it was inevitable.  He was running Cutler-level stacks from a very young age.  It happens to everyone else.  It took him longer due to the narrow frame... but it's been ten years now that Phil's been a pro.

I still stand by my prediction that Phil Heath will retire after winning the O next year.  I'm convinced he's done competing, and we'll never see him competing from 2016 on.

Probably why he started Gifted Nutrition. Good strategy if so.

wtf? no abs prejudging....abs magically appear for finals then just as fast disappear the next day???  wtf is wrong with modern bodybuilding?? this physique is a total joke...his head is wider than his shoulders...IFBB is totally fucking retarded!!!
