let's spark some discussion: Phil Heath get's defensive over his gut

[goldengirl]

Saw this interesting read on DYE tonight, after reading reading a thread about Chestbrah vs Jay on social media I thought I'd toss this out there too... always interesting to see how people react to criticism on the internet.

ARTICLE IS HERE: VIA DO YOU EVEN

Many of the top pros have horrible looking mid sections all bloated and look like crap.

Lol. I think bodybuilding has gotten away from the v taper, but I do think it is moving back in that direction. Nobody wants to see huge guts on stage, it's just not pleasing to look at. You gotta respect Phil, for taking the time to interact with people. Even if they're taking jabs, I think it's just gonna motivate him more to come in better. Also, I don't think Phil's gut, is anywhere near as bad as some. Kai's was ridiculous. Like he had an alien in there.

I agree but the probably is most people want to see the freak so the envelope it pushed.... Im a fan of the frank zane bodies... that's body building

When Ramy nails his conditioning he will own everybody. The guy is a monster, still young, and has NO gut - that's truly unbelievable for a mass monster. He just won his latest show at 315 on stage.

That guy is just ridiculous. He dwarfs everyone. I'd love to see him in person.

Well my opinion is that women find distended guts with large muscles sexy. You've all seen the big fat bearded guy sitting on his Harley with the hot little honey on the back. I rest my case.

Ramy is someone I've been watching for a while- dude's an absolute monster!! I would absolutely die to meet him in person.

imo, some of the guys on stage have been getting pretty ridiculous. Like, I admire Kai in a lot of ways but his gut definitely isn't one.... There's a meme going around now too, poking fun at the guts, had a bit of a chuckle when I first saw it come round!

he he he....

he he he....

Wow that pic Phil's definitely got a big turtle attached to his gut - looks terrible IMO. I hope the statement Arnold made about Jim Manion & judges after the AC this year has a trickle down effect and they start penalizing for that shit.
