Wow..Phil is so unimpressive in the offseason

[1quick1]

I saw him on Tuesday. He was doing chest right next to me. I assure you he is not your average 'gym rat' lol. He is still massive but I believe he took a few weeks of the weights after the O. He's really big on resting to avoid injuries.

Same here.

BTW if that's an Average gym Rat wtf am I doing wrong?!

[Ajthemeso]

Others like Roelly, kai, ect. may be more impressive, but to say that Phil is "unimpressive" is an exaggeration to say the least.

So jelly you train at that gym lol

agreed lol.

[masthead716]

Phil may not be the most impressive guy during his offseason, but his contest prep transformation is one of the freakiest I've ever seen.

[Carlitom]

Well he's hardly gonna call the interviewer a softbatch punk who don't even lift is he?

Maybe it's just my gym but there is quite a few guys who look like that.

Not sherrif srs

No disrespect but he looks like a regular gym rat here..

phil comes off real good in that interview. He should spend less time arguing with farking 14 year olds on ******** and more time acting like a mature cool dude like that. Comes off smart, intelligent, and down to earth.

It actually makes me wonder if people hack is FB account or something???? <--serious question


as far as his look...I just think it is because he is short and small in stature and narrow and those black ass shirts make him look like he is some 200 pound dude with big arms and nothing else.

so do we have this same thread every year now?

Can't wait for Kai to do a guest pose and be crowned Mr O 6 months in advance.

[DavidZiegler]

Looks good and did a great job

[invain]

I've always thought Phil looks fairly small in street clothes compared to other pro's, off season or not.

haha we'd be lucky if that's it

don't forget "is kai wearing leather clothing going to keep people away from bbing?"

[y0lked]

man he's such a stand up guy. He genuinely enjoyed doing a basic ass tv interview for complete noobs. +1 for the reigning Mr O

[Deano87]

cmon OP, do we really need to hate on Phil for everything?

[kingtung]

Milone no one is as natural as you bro.

Like we get the picture already. Your big.... naturally.

[Zirkon]

I think I know what OP is getting at.

Either Phil is very deceiving in a t-shirt or a he might take a break from supps and training after the O.

Yates, Coleman, kai, Nasser, Ruhl all looked huge in regular clothes and in the off season.

And Nasser, Ruhl, and Coleman all had or have severe health issues. Yates is the smart one who trimmed down.

And no OP. Most of you would be blown away how huge pros are in person.

Dorian still probably weighs like 230+ and Ronnie is a super freak so I can believe he would stay big whether he is on or off

I've seen Phil twice irl, first time was guest posing with Darren Ball, and Darren Ball had that crazy freak factor that a off season Heath doesn't, and I was at last years Olympia when Heath quite rightfully won, what Phil doesn't have in that crazy huge look, such as Kai or Ramy he makes up for in separated full muscle bellies that gives his muscle a 3D 'pop'.

So maybe it's a combination of a smaller frame, coming off supps and backing off training after the O and only starts to look freaky at low bf, when the separation and full round bellies become apparent.

[AniMaLizTik]

Even guys from MD says backstage at the "O" phil look small in clothes, then he takes his clothes off and everyone is omg wtf im going home

[SolorzanoJose]

don't be dumb, he's wearing a shirt, we all know sometimes shirts suck

[Confusedkunt]

The female asked how much he benches

When you're 3 x Mr O, you can do whatever the hell you want in the off-season.

[stealth_swimmer]

Regular gym rat may be a step too far, but i've never been impressed with phil in the off-season either (compared to most of the other pros).

Agreed with that, but lol @ "average gym rat"

Anyways, I felt last year when he was like in the middle of his offseason and was already getting a little leaner, he looked super impressive cus he was lean enough to see the separation between each muscle group, but still had that full, round look and some pop to the muscle. Too heavy, and that separation can't be seen...he ends up looking puffy.

[ZBlacktt]

not everyone can look as freaky as say roelly in the offseason.

But in all seriousness, Phil's next show is a long long ways away ( Mr O ). So he doesn't need to look full blown all the time. He still has those big round muscle bellies. Which is never going to change. Beside, he's won 3 in a row now so off season doesn't matter at all. He certainly knows what he is doing!

Good video Phil.
