Chest, shoulder and triceps training by Phil Heath!

Phil Heath managed to win the Olympia from 2011 to 2017 and his last appearance at the mega show was two years ago when he came third! Last year, his legendary coach Hany Rambod commented on Phil's entry at the 2021 Olympia:

"PHIL HEATH - SEVEN-TIME MR. HEATH - SEVEN-TIME OLYMPIA - IS NOT DOING THE 2021 MR. OLYMPIA. BOTTOM LINE...BECAUSE HE DOESN'T NEED TO."

Based on the information so far, it looks like Heath won't be competing in this year's event. It might be due to the fact that he suffered a covid at the end of last December, for which he had to be hospitalized. During his recovery, Phil lost 225 pounds, a weight he last weighed in 2007 and 2008. Despite this, Heath has returned to his beloved exercise and made the following public announcement:

"I basically go to the gym to gain weight. Obviously I'm not 20. I'm trying to get my rhythm and flow 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. Doing cardio in the morning, nothing too wild."

And just recently a new video was released on the Philo YT channel. We can watch his chest, shoulder and triceps workout. Heath then explains that he much prefers to train on machines than with free weights. His reasoning for this is that it allows him to avoid injury and allows him to control his movements more.
