I have no clue why Phil Hill quit BB but I think if he stuck around he could have won the Olympia.......the guy was a true freak of nature.

Turned pro in 87 and was done by 90. Won the Night of Champions. Not sure what the story of why he stopped competing was I thought he'd go further

That's true, and for most of the Haney/Dorian/Ronnie epoch, that probably would have relegated him to top six status.

But by the time Heath came around, being narrow was seemingly no longer (haha, no pun intended) a thing.  Hill's arms, legs, back and overall thickness would have kicked ass in the late 2000s.

Gary was pretty awesome man probably one of the freakiest built other than haney and yates in 91 what could’ve been who knows. It’s funny how the schmoes and the fans were screaming and screaming over the same ridiculous poses over and over he was done in like a minute to minutes what else could he have done

Royalty knows why Phil stopped competing 😃

Phil said that the drugs stopped working. So he quit.

Jerry Brainum said Phil told him that. Phil's placings dropped off from year to year. He wasn't getting bigger, was coming in smoother. He won the NOC in 88 by 90 he wasn't breaking the top 10 of the NOC.

 Phil was going to make a run to be the Mayor of Trenton NJ.  So stepped away from the sport. Jerry Brainum saw Phil sometime later and asked him about a comeback.  Phil told him he no longer responded to steroids the same. Had to use more and more and wasn't making gains.

I seem to remember he was diabetic too. So he was using insulin before it was popular as an anabolic.

It's hard to believe though. Just stop responding altogether?
I also thought he became a cop or state trooper later? Who tf knows. He was freaking awesome for a few years.

Thanks beak....very interesting.

I still think if all was well he could have at least made a huge impression at the "O" .

Just my 3 CC`s.

Maybe because of the gay stigma.

Didn't knew he died, rather young, 53.

As good as anyone from the front but was severely lacking when he turned around. No way he was beating Haney or Yates with that back.
