Phil Heath

irocktheyellow

The man is undefeated in his bodybuilding career, amature as well as professional. Do you guys think he is the next Mr. O? He has the entire package, asthetics, size, shape, symmetry, you name it.

No i do not think he is Mr.O material, however he may well be in the future.

Ok so he won major bodybuilding contests which is fabulous and he is well on his way, however he has never entered a MR.O were the contest is hotter.

At a contest weight of 215lbs Phil Heath is not a threat to Ronnie 'King' Coleman.

Phil is still young though so only the future will tell...I just hope that he won't play the size game and distort his excellent asthetics.

Well, no one is gonna beat Ronnie, thats a given. I will give him another 2-3 years and he will be MR.O. Do you think he should compete in this years O? If he doesn't he will still keep his undefeated record and he could do the Arnold first and possibly win it.

Personally i think that yes he should compete in the O simply for the prestige that comes with being able to enter such a high class event.

It might not be in his best interests to enter because as you say he could save his energy for the Arnold early next year. I am sure he knows what he will do and will think things through.

As for him being 'MR.O' within the next 2-3 years is doubtful because it would be very hard for him to go from 215lbs contest ready to 270-290lbs contest in that time frame. Unless they bring in a new mandate encouraging more a more asthetic type of bodybuilder i can't see him being Mr.O within the next couple of years.

even when ronnie stops competing,i don't think that heath will have many chances against cutler or gustavo..

But maybe he doesn't need to be 270-290. He did beat Dennis James who placed 6th at last years olympia. I believe that phil has the most pleasing physique in the IFBB today. It is all up to which way the Weiders choose to take the IFBB. They can keep going with the mass route or start awarding physiques like Phil and others.

OLYMPIA FANS WON’T GET THEIR PHIL

Written by: Peter McGough

After winning the Colorado and New York pro shows on May 13 and May 20 respectively, Phil Heath is seen as hot a prospect as bodybuilding has had in years. So the ever-growing legion of Heath fans will surely be disappointed to hear he is sitting out the 2006 Olympia. It’s a decision the 26-year-old made only after days spent searching his soul and gathering feedback from his small, but valued, circle of advisors.

“Believe me when I say I would love to compete in this year’s Olympia,” says Heath. “But I don’t feel it would be in my best interest at this stage of my career. It’s always been important to me to be able to make significant improvements from show to show. I think I put on some quality size in the 10 months between the USA last July and Colorado this past May, and to continue that improvement curve I’d like to work for a similar 10-month period before entering my next contest. Doing the Olympia on September 30 just wouldn’t give me the time I want to improve. The last thing I want to do is go into the Olympia looking the same as I did in Colorado or New York.” While he won’t be competing in Las Vegas come September 29-30, he will certainly be in attendance, probably looking healthy and full as he continues to add quality mass in preparation for his next competition, the 2007 Arnold Classic.

“By next March I will have had another 10 months to improve upon the physique I showed this May,” he says. “I think I should have a decent shot at qualifying for the 2007 Olympia at the Arnold if I can make the kind of gains in the offseason I’m expecting to make.”

He sees the six months between next year’s Arnold and the Olympia being sufficient time for him to make further improvements before making a Big O debut, “if”, as he says, “I qualify.” Any bets against him not doing that?

Chances are he will win the Arnold.
