Phil Heath showed off his abs!

Phil Heath dominated bodybuilding from 2010-2017, winning seven Olympia titles and even unseating the legendary Coleman, who has one more Olympia win (eight). In 2018, Phil was defeated at Olympia by Shawn Rhoden, who passed away last November.

Last year, Heath looked considerably emaciated. Many people speculated that this was a sign of Heath's retirement. However, it was later revealed that the massive weight loss was the result of him having an illness.

"I basically go to the gym to put on weight. Obviously I'm not 20. I'm trying to get my rhythm and fluidity back. I feel a lot better right now. I have about 4 to 5 meals a day and a few shakes. I work out lightly biceps, triceps, calves and core. My routine has definitely changed."

And just recently on his Instagram, Phil showed off his abs and wrote a motivational text for the post that is sure to inspire many young exercisers.

"My life has definitely been filled with wins and losses, but those losses have brought more wins by learning from those moments of failure and being overjoyed with gratitude that God has given me the strength to keep going."
