Phil Heath's Pro Debut

[will-work4ANDRO]

How do you think Phil Heath will fare at the Shawn Ray Colorado Classic. It will be his debut. Depending on who shows up to that show i think he'll place somewhere around 5th or 6th. I thionk melvin anthony will probably finish somewhere towards the top, i haven't heard of any other names competing.

[will-work4ANDRO]

i actually just found a list of the competitors scheduled to compete on his website.

actually melvin's name isn't on the list yet, but there are some big names

I think Phil will do pretty well, but I think it will be money in the bank for Darrem Charles, Mr. Late Spring, Early Summer.


If you go to his website it shows many of the competitors, but it lists a few people that I am sure won't be there. Last time I heard anything from Ruhl's website he said he wouldn't start training again until February, and would compete right before the olympia to qualify, so we won't see him until the southwest/europa show, although Shawn Ray has him as a competitor.


It is to note that this is the third biggest bodybuilding show in the world with over 72,000 dollars going to the athletes, which of course is behind the Olympia and the Arnold.

Oh yeah, I am excited about Vince Taylors return to Bodybuilding... I heard he is also competing in the Aussie show.

[kethnaab]

a lot of good guys on that show

johnnie jackson, David Henry, Darrem Charles and the pro debut of Bill Wilmore as well

Wilmore might just beat out Heath. Wilmore's a beast.

[StrongrthnIlook]

Good question. We will have to see who's there. That is a pretty deep field, if they all show up. I am looking forward to it. My predictions are:

Darrem

Melvin

Johnnie

David

Mustafa

Phil


Two Marcus Haley's huh, I wonder if they look alike?

[pryme]

what about big ruhl!!!!

I think phil has the best combo of size, symmetry, and conditioning of all the IFBB pros right now

[will-work4ANDRO]

he definitely looks awesome

[Ripped Italian]

Heath's side tricep pose is pretty incredible imo. It'll be interesting to see how he looks in his first pro show.

[BB is 4 life :)]

Full view of how great he already is......hes improved from these pics....hes gonna be awesome.

[BB is 4 life :)]

I totally agree, although I'd like to see him another 10-15lbs heavier. Not that I don't think his physique is great already, but he needs that extra bit of size to be more competitive.

[k=urt]

Damn he is cut like crazy...

I am just now understanding alot about bodybuilding. I see this guy and I think that his chest is too small. Is it me or do his shoulders over shadow his chest. I am not trying to rag just trying to better understand the perfect physique.

small?

[BB is 4 life :)]

small?

Yes....his most outstanding body part is too small....did you not know this layne, im surprised

[USMuscle9403]

Amazing physique and it will take him far. Very good proportions, size, and symmetry.

Definately great developed, but seems he genetically seems to have "high" insertions, do you understand what i mean(probably I'm talkin crap)By the way It's just like mine, Pro bb of course.

[Jwillbc55]

Look out for Caprise Murray if you ask me...that dude is a freak of nature.

[kethnaab]

small?

my guess is that he is referring to some of the most muscular's where Heath crosses his hands past each other, thereby "reducing" the width of his chest.

honestly, that is the only thing I can think that dude meant.

No i dont understand what you mean by high insertions in the chest.....the can be short from top to bottom but heath doesnt have that problem, he has a nice fully developed hanging chest.

But anyway, point is hes gonna come into the pro ranks and do what Warren has done, and piss alot of other guys off by walking past them

EXACTLY!!!

Lets also not forget the fact that he's Weider sponsored, he'll do well for that fact alone. I'm also willing to bet he's going to make a lot of appearences in FLEX and M&F in the months leading up to the contest. The Weider hype machine will be hard at work for Heath.

If he manages to put on another 10-15lbs, and come in just as conditioned, I see him placing top 5 if not top 3. He's got a lot going for him.

It worked well for Federov didn't it? Just kidding...


I think he will do well, and top 5 is very possible in his first show. Capriese murray can't hold his own against Phil. I want to see Melvin vs. Darrem vs. Phil in a posedown. Damn that would be some serious lines, and some serious symmetry.

LOL cheap shot...j/k IMO Federov never had it to begin with.

Yeah, that would be killer, to see those 3 side by side.
