Let the games begin! Beyond excited to share the trailer for Breaking Olympia, a @UniversalDocumentaries release, coming early 2024. #PhilHeath #MrOlympia #BodyBuilding #BreakingOlympia
Was able to catch a workout next to @schwarzenegger at the Mecca,Gold's Gym Venice this morning and needless to say I was excited. Arnold still trains daily, carrying the high standards of health and wellness being a top priority so that he can thrive in all areas of his life. To train beside him was awesome, chatting in between sets about bodybuilding but most importantly life and all of its opportunities was even more valuable. To receive instruction from this man is something I am forever grateful for and will definitely use those nuggets of wisdom to stack some more wins in my life.
Arnold has a new documentary being featured on @netflix with a three-part series illustrating the three lifetimes that he has lived. I can say that he has exhibited greatness throughout and believe that he is far from slowing down.
Key takeaways were:
GREATNESS has no limits. It is only for those who sign up daily throughout life's challenges, continuously learning about oneself, adjusting one's habits and behavior to enable positive results.
LISTENING to those who are actual experts. I could easily act like a know it all given he and I are tied with 7 Mr Olympia titles, however I recognize there are experiences he has which I can learn from by asking questions and actively listening to him speak.
GRATITUDE!!! Arnold trains amongst everyone and respects his space while training but will say hello to everyone as he continues to never forget where he came from, offering all the "right advices" while time permits.
SERVICE!!! He is a servant leader who truly wants the best for everyone yet knows he carries a heavy responsibility to be the change he wishes to see in others.
I was able to feel that vibe and truly accept that we all including myself must do our part to be our greatest versions of self to help humanity thrive!!!
I definitely needed this interaction as I planned on training for an hour and this gave me more fuel to train an additional TWO hours haha.
I used this quote while training from Conan the Barbarian.
"I am a sword made flesh. Steel and death are my companions"
Stay strong. Love to All!!!

Who is hitting delts today??
Every workout counts! Doing my best to hit shoulders more consistently, I gotta maintain these 3D delts.

Consistency is the closest thing to a superpower.
Most people wait for motivation.
Champions build habits that survive without it.
The days you feel tired.
The days nobody’s watching.
The days progress feels invisible.
That’s where greatness is actually built.
Consistency isn’t flashy.
It’s repetitive.
It’s disciplined.
And over time, it becomes undeniable.
Years later, the trophies fade into the background…
but the mindset stays forever.
No excuses, get the work done!
Retirement for me?
It’s not the end.
It’s freedom.
Freedom from the stage.
Freedom from chasing validation.
Freedom from tying my worth to a Sandow trophy, a placing, or applause.
But the truth is… bodybuilding never really leaves you.
The body dysmorphia is real. The expectations stay high. The voice in your head still pushes for more.
So now the mission is different…
Take care of the body that carried me through 7 Mr. Olympia titles.
Train because I love it.
Show up because discipline is part of who I am.
And become the healthiest, strongest version of myself possible, without needing the world to validate it.
This isn’t retirement.
This is growth.
Always 7x Mr. Olympia. Still building. Always Evolving.

Phil,
There will be nights you question if you’re even good enough.
They’ll say you’re finished… before you’ve even begun.
So train like time is running out.
They’re going to call you arrogant.
Let them.
They’re going to say you’ll never have a back.
You’ll hold yourself to a standard they don’t understand yet.
They’ll say it was given to you.
But they’ll never see what it takes.
There will be moments you doubt everything.
But when the lights come on…
Leave that doubt behind.
Bring the work.
7x.
