Heath rly Mr O someday? or next Levrone

[_Muskelberg_]

So, will Phil heath really be Mr O someday.

Or will it be a story like Levrone's. I think both have a very similar body.

Great Arms. Maybe the two best Tricepcs ever. But both very narrow clavicles and a small chest.

(pic).

Levrone never became Mr O though he had one of the greatest physiques ( ) of all time.
there always were athlets who were in front of him.
Yates (and Shawn) at the earlier contests and Ronnie since 1998.

What about Phil? Will he always be behind Vic or Wolf just because of his "small" chest and lack of wideness and thus will share the fate with Kevin.

Or will he be lucky 'cause the time of mass monsters seems to be over ?

(be serious. no "heath is the greatest, for sure he'll defeat vic")

[OneLoveLiftHard]

Heath looks better then Levrone in that picture, so I'd say future Mr. O, No problem

[MesoPeaks]

Most sickest arms I've seen so far..

[antish]

if he can beat victor , he'd be mr o

[daveboy1976]

Surely only the judges reluctance to make the Mr O somebody with a criminal record like Vic's will prevent him from becoming a multiple O winner.

Heath's arms are SO good they highlight his chest as MORE of a weakness IMO.

Not sure about Wolf. Lats seem just a touch too high for Mr O greatness given the recent emphasis on backs winning sandows.

Of course what we dont know is what Vic will look like after he's back from injury.

All speculation. However, given this years result, what are the odds that an absentee from '08 will win in '09. Step forward Messrs Greene, Warren and Martinez!!!

[Captain Sagara]

Problem with Levrone was that he was in the era of both Yates & Coleman...
Levrone does had some things better then Heath,like a better wider chest,wider clavicles and shoulders and in the end of his carrer he had an complete back,he was also heavier.
but i believe Phil will surprass the great Levrone

Sorry didn't mean to be rude, but that made laugh out loud when i read it....=/

[_Muskelberg_]

Haha.

yeah, I'm sorry. I know it is "physics" like "maths" etc

but i could not find the word which I wanted to use ^^

I'm German, ya know please tell me, how you spell it then.

edit:

Well, finally i found it. It is "physique", of course ( I'll fix it)

[FullROM]

Heath is like a Ray or Levrone, great muscles but if he comes up against Wolfs structure and size and Wolf sorts out his timming then I can not see how heath can be Mr O.

Lol sorry i didnt mean to be a jerk about it =).

Ich bin jon un du?

[siersy]

levrone didnt win but there was someone around called ronnie coleman....

there is no longer a ronnie coleman, so i dont see why heath cant steal one or two till another dominat figure rears their ugly head

You could already make the arguement that Heath could have won an O. His comparison pics with Dexter are pretty impressive when you think about it. For Wolf to be an O, he needs to have a more complete package. His height kind of works against him, its going to take a lot to fill out his lower back and calves. Heath has shown he can blow his back up. This offseason he will work on chest, and continue to grow with his back.

QFT....

[Danny213]

Heath and Wolf will have some great battles in the future, no doubt. It will be the next Coleman/Cutler only without playing the mass game.

If Wolf does what he should have done this year, then I can't see Heath ever beating him.

It's going to come down to who has the best back.

[Natty_Ice]

He is already ahead of Mr. Wolf, based on the Olympia judging and my own opinion. In addition to that, he is relatively new to the game compared to his competition, which leaves him plenty of room for growth. He has significant time before his body becomes destroyed by years of 'celltech' use, vs. his main competitors, such as wolf, who may already be showing signs of 'celltech' burnout. You know when your stomach starts noticeablly growing from one year to the next (Wolf), you need to back off on the drugs a bit. No disrespect to Wolf whatsoever, but I am just making an honest observation here. Wolf is definitely the future of the sport.

[Natty_Ice]

Awesome comparison pictures by the way. They look so much alike physique wise in those shots.

Also, both Flex and Levrone **** on Ronnie earlier in his career in a wide variety of shows, but Ronnie continued to develop, as his ceiling was a lot higher than what they had.........and after he won his first O they never had a chance after that.

[bopps822]

Heath has so much more growing to do its retarded.The dude has only been BB'ing for like 5 years.lol.

[ElMariachi]

Growing into what? Where? He still has a relatively narrow frame that won't allow for much greater expansion and if he pushes the envelope, the only thing that will happen is that his gut spills over.

[corvin25]

The man is outa control.....
I'm not a superfan of any particular bodybuilder. I'm a superfan of bodybuilding and I can't wait for the 09 Olympia that lineup is gonna be so stacked and freakin nasty.
I might just have to buy a ticket to Vegas...and holy shiit I gotta give props cause Heath is the most impressive Bodybuilder I've seen in a long time.




I want to look at these giants of the sport as enormous versions of what people can achieve on a muuuuuuch smaller scale without the guts/distention and lumps. Beautiful symetry, full muscle bellies, and crazy condition.
With the new bloods,the return of the guys who couldn't make it this year and the improvements on the ones who did participate it will make the '09 season the best ever.

It's a great time to be a fan of Bodybuilding!

i have big hopes for brandon curry and evan centopani. i think theyre both gonna give phil a run for his money

Those are huge hope for what Phil has done already in ths sport.

The man made sick improvements in a year.F#$k this narrow frame bull$#*t. If he continues to improve on his back and fills out his chest, its over. Every pro and former pro says the same thing.They dont say that $%*t about no body else.

[flangmasterj]

Phil will be Mr O within the next five years.

[rocco421]

i know, but as much as i loved ronnie's reign, i really enjoy not knowing for sure who is going to win a show. i want the competition to be as tough as possible and i think there are a lot of really good young bodybuilders out there, esp wolf and heath. rivalries make every sport so much more fun to watch. centopani is debuting at the 09 ny pro, i cant wait to see what he brings to the table

[PumpinPaddy]

unlike others, phil seems to be addressing his flaws, if he keeps it up, i can see him winning multiple olympias

[DiamondDelts]

He will have a sandow in as little as 2-3 years.

[djaziz]

I'm sorry but the pic above made me LOL too hard not to do this



As far as Heath being Mr. O I'd say it's very possible but nothing is guaranteed in this world.

[musclePavel]

the comparsion picture is flawed because if you stand both next to each other, levrone is wider, hence more impressive because they have the same ammount of muscularity

hell ya curry ftw
