Perhaps you can go back and find a post where I said he’d win again. He might or might not it’s a wide open field but I’ve never made the prediction that he’d win again. Perhaps you don’t pay attention too well.

It looks like his pre-contest diet is making a huge impact already.

Coach I was surprised how Rhoden looked at the NY pro especially when compared to everyone else. That said I know none of it matters until the day of the show so all pictures,  regardless of size and conditioning, mean nothing.

I don’t think if he won the Olympia anyone would’ve been surprised since as he’s said many time this is what he’s done every offseason. But, yes. It only counts the day of the show.

Rhoden is the most non-charismatic Mr. O ever, and it's clear he's not living the bodybuilding lifestyle year round. He'll be lucky if he's gifted a top 5 slot. A one time Mr O.

Maybe he will or maybe he won’t make the top five spot but based on his competition history he’ll be in the top five

I don't think his physique is boring.  It is balanced to the point that nothing pops out and has a freak factor.  I do think his personality is boring as hell though.  He is very lackluster.

I wanted him to win again simply to drive Heath over the edge.  But if Heath is pussying out, I can change my mind on it.

What a swan song it would have been if Phil had won last year, then won #9 this year, beating the record held by Lee Haney and Ronnie Coleman, only to retire just two months before his 40th birthday.

In just two months from that Pittsburg guest posing to this shape. Great transformation.  :o

Personally I'm not impressed with a guy who is out of shape throughout most of the year, then does a three month drug blitz so he can drag his chemically propped up physique onto the stage where he nearly has a stroke going through his mandatories. Call me old fashioned but to me that's not bodybuilding. Physical Culture is no longer associated with these drug fueled affairs called "bodybuilding contests".

Arnold used to do that all the time. His “off season” pics were proof of it.

Arnold was never a fat sloppy fuck. Always trained and ate healthy. And Arnold never did the drugs these nitwits are doing.

“Arnold ...ate healthy” You nor I have any clue what he ate. And Arnold used any and every drug available at the time.

From what Arnold said and from his lean off season appearance, it can be concluded he ate healthy. And again, Arnold didn't do the drugs these nitwits are doing.

Let me know how he went from 190 to 240 in 9 weeks.

Exactly.

I was about to say - he ate red meat, kid.

And how did Arnold need steel plates in his chest by age 50 if he was so "healthy"?

Shawn Ray commented on Rhoden's instagram post calling this picture into question, saying it isn't from this year. Tried going back and getting a screenshot for you but it's either been buried by other comments or deleted.

Muscle memory and more food. Did he do steroids? Obviously. But nothing like these guys today. Apples and oranges.

Rhoden should be respected. The only thing missing is mid back density.

I didn't click the picture as I would rather focus on how my own Olympia prep is going

Just to let you know guys:

-I've upped my sports science supplement dose, it's gone from 20 mg winstrol a week to 30 mg. In the coming weeks I might add some proviron in to free up some testosterone from the SHBG.
-Fish is beginning to be phased in over chicken, for its skin-thinning properties.
-I'm paying Charles Glass $5000 for a session to tweak my thumb positioning in the side lateral raise.
-Famed Romanian coach Sebastian Ivascu will be taking over my prep to dial me in during the final 4 weeks.

It was from eating 6 meals a day and lifting twice a day, every day

We shall see, won’t we?  ;D the Olympia is still months away, and he hasn’t won or defended his title yet

Like I said I’ll take Shawn Ray, a hall a famer bber who actually KNOWS what he was doing when competing





I guess Shawn was wrong again
