[SF1900]

Looks decent. Would likely beat Curry if he returned.

I wonder if he is hiding any abdominal problems with his right hand?


But yes, he looks awesome

[IroNat]

Glad he's cutting back on the 'roids.

You have no idea what you're talking about

he's cleaned out his receptors with the time off.

probably on 500 mg in that pic.

[jude2]

Yes he would beat Curry.

[Hulkotron]

I heard Phil was natural up through his 3rd win.

Looks very good for offseason.  He wipes the floor with Curry and Rhoden.

[oldtimer1]

I think he looked better when he was playing Division I basketball. Had a real athlete's body.

[delta9mda]

[LMV]

I heard Ronnie was natural up to and including the 1996 Mr. Olympia.  Go figure.

I guess we have similar sources. 

PS - I love that in the pro bodybuilding world, using massive quantities of gear can be looked upon as "natural" if said bodybuilder in question tripled his dosages in the years to follow.

Yes if you use enough the next year then what you used the previous year was relatively low.

Another definition in the bodybuilding world...?:

It's natural as long as no GH or IGF-1 is being used.  Maybe insulin.

Other than that - the bodies are as natural as the ones entering a Magic The Gathering tournament.

Hmm...?  Name some bodybuilders whose quads you consider to be ideal.  Phil brought his quads up dramatically as far back as the 2008 Ironman, which he won.  Prior to that, I was thinking "Great physique - amazing aesthetics and a great look...but no one is going to win the Mr. Olympia contest, or even be a serious contender, with that back and those legs."

I felt this way in 2007, when Phil placed #5 at the Arnold Classic.

When I saw how dramatically he brought up his legs for his 2008 Ironman win...I was thinking "Whoa...this hype train is the real deal", and he was.

Could you post some photos of bodybuilders who possess the quads' shape you think is lacking in today's field?

He's not fooling me!!! The abs stick out further than the chest...once the waist gets blown out there is no pulling it back just ask Kai!!!

sure 2 examples of elite genetic quad shape

[Fortress]

Heath should join Branch for a horsie ride, and maybe ask him for a job, as well.

[Humble Narcissist]

Agreed.

[TheShape.]

Why does he constantly want to look like a bloated donut? If he’s retired it’s time to drop 60 lbs and stay lean.

[Coffeed]

Why didn't he compete this year?

[kreator]

sure 2 examples of elite genetic quad shape

Agreed, i always thought Munzer had the most complete set of wheels in the industry

[The_Punisher]

Why didn't he compete this year?

he's a very considerate human being and sat out this Olympia just so someone else can win.....

Phil looks great there and PROVES that genetics is a huge part of this thing (BB)
Absolutely have no doubt he was natural in this pic - but has great structure. That’s ONE way a champ must have great genetics. The other is the “Genetic response to AAS” - anyone who doubts this has no business giving an opinion.
Example - you have a guy like ESF with total shit genetics and almost non-existent genetic response to anabolics. Those kind of retards slam grams and grams and end up looking like a natural dude who trains hard.
It’s this entitled titty baby - everybody has to be equal - pussified society. We need to be able to accept that some of us can do things that others can’t.

is this bloated body and estrogen laden face supposed to impress us?
