I don`t think the average person comprehends the psychotic effort it takes to be an elite bodybuilder. It`s not just the insane painful hours in the gym, but the equally hard dieting and resting the sport demands and the food expense. And you also have to become an expert in understanding your body and how it responds to particular methods of training and pretty much conducting a scientific experiment . I see bodybuilders as painters with dumbbells creating the perfect art work with their body. I have tremendous respect for them, they sacrifice so much.
Discipline yes, but the most selfish, lonely, egocentric, narcissistic activity ( yes as it is not a sport!) not to mention the `chemical` side of it which is a clear indication of drug addiction & not being right in the head! WOW, I so look up to these people...
Andreas Neophytou people love to be dismissive for stuff they can't do. You're buff? Steroids. You're rich? Crook. You're beautiful? You're dumb/had surgery. It's sad. The disgusting remarks about women bodybuilders is sad. They dismiss them as ugly. Never mind how intense they work out and how disciplined they are.
True, theres no doubt, and sometimes its illogical to yell out "STEROIDS", IFBB Pros will certainly use Anabolics. Its just those people who have zero knowledge of the bodybuilding industry that are oblivious. Phil Heath is naturally gifted in his genetics, but i bet his work ethic is beyong my imagination.
i mean the people who say steroids about anyone on the olympia stage is ignorant, if youve learned yourself about bodybuilding at all, you realize all these dudes work harder then anyone else in and outside the gym.
I had an amazing time sharing space with Patrick and his film crew. I am currently writing my "Weekly Thoughts" as many have responded to your challenge of me to make it so. Thank you all for watching and I hope that you all continue to train hard, train smart and of course have some damn fun!
phil.... this was an amazing interview with you, a great sportsman! you are a inspiration for every bodybuilder in any age. discipline, work ethic, smart and gentle behaviour. all the best from cologne, germany! arthur brehm
This podcast deserves much more views and respect. I’ve followed your bodybuilding for years but never knew how intelligent and individual and the ideas knocking about up in the head of the champ
Watching this on the treadmill. I met Phil Heath at the Arnold the year before his first Olympia and he was a class act. Really one of the nicest dudes I’ve ever met. He certainly has earned all the success in his life. He’s a true champion! Great interview once again Pat.
It makes me laugh when people say “it’s steroids” like they can just jab a few steroids and win an Olympia. This guy has basically sacrificed his life to get where he is. Well done to anyone who can go in day after day with this type of motivation 👍
David has a point. Look at boxing for example. According to history they have been 500 deaths due to brain trauma following a boxing bout but Boxing is still a huge business. The point is, it all comes down to how you promote your product. And as fan of Bodybuilding, they need a true promoter.
@@VALUETAINMENT To have a "True Promoter", Bodybuilding has to get ALL parties involved actually *INVOLVED* Currently Bodybuilders, Nutritionists, Motivators, Trainers, Educators are all in but the key component is silent and hidden. Intentionally. The Medical Community & Big Pharma NEED to be as big a part of promotion as the rest or that "True Promoter" will Never become a reality. And I'm NOT talking typical Sports Medicine as it is currently involved. I'm talking A Medical Community that Recognizes the relationship and importance of Steroid and Human Growth Hormone use in the industry and how to incorporate it going forward as a professional career and lifestyle choice.
taoist40 Bodybuilding has suffered the past decades from major setbacks and I think one of the ways that they have tried to bring it back as a sport is with some drama (kind of like WWE wrestling style). So he’s just acting the part. He’s actually a very low key (and kind of insecure) guy
I'd never heard of Phil prior to this interview. I'm now following him after listening to him speak and reading a little bit about him. A switched on person, well educated and a champion in an under appreciated discipline in my opinion. Brilliant. On another note, great to see an interview where host and guest challenged each other and weren't afraid to go deep. Thanks Pat.
Maybe I’m wrong, but what I took away from this interview was that I was amazed how someone can be so focused, strong, smart and disciplined in one area, but lack a bit of confidence in another. This is not a put down in any way. I feel like Pat sees a potential in the sport and in Phil that Phil doesn’t yet see. I wasn’t convinced that he realizes how powerful social media is and the potential that he has to get himself out there. He doesn’t need Arnold or Dwayne to get his name out there.... he is enough. He can self promote and do anything of the things that he was wishing for on his own.
Billy Scarpelli heres the thing, bodybuilding is a sport where most of them need to be "selfish" , focused and deciplined. Thts what it takes to be the best
But for Phil, he can't see combining the two successfully without compromising the Training aspect of it. To him it's balls to the walls, all or nothing. And being old school I feel the same way. I have zero time for camera angle, photoshop and editing. Anything given to this portion of the popularity contest would steal quality from the End Goal. It takes a level of balance that I certainly don't have and I think Phil feels that way from watching this interview.
The fact that you Patrick get the opportunity, or should I better say, you got yourself into the position to be able to meet with people, so successful, is something that I aspire to do in my life too! I've got to hustle and be patient. Thank you for the inspiration Patrick!
This is hands down the best Phil Heath interview i've EVER seen! You brought out a lot we haven't seen from him yet, keep up those interesting in-depth interviews.
The amount of gear, Food, and risk of never actually winning is probably beyond anyone’s realm of understanding. Such a risky and high-demanding sport.
Not really you gen. Should have a pretty good understanding after taking your first cycle on weather you have the potential to be in an olinpian lineup. There freaks of nature when it comes to responding to gear
I Love Phil Heath's attitude on social media. Every picture I see of him everyone is trying to out-angle him meanwhile he's happy and carefree and doesn't give a shit. LOL
The authorities in body building are hating on Kai Green. Holding him back. He's better than Phil Heath. Phil Heaths image works for the same establishment. Especially his choice of women. You won't see a black one on his arm.
Patrick positioned his questions and ideas to Phil in such a way that during the second half of the interview Phil could not get his mind off of Patrick's fitness exposure ideas. The spirit of gratitude Phil showed demonstrates Patick's leadership ability to evoke strong emotions & offer practical advice to take immediate action. Phil's solid understanding of diet, exercise, determination and business are all examples of why he should start documenting- video, written, or audio- his abilities and experiences to start connecting with an audience that will allow him to bring the business and social exposure he envisions for the bodybuilding industry. One of Patrick's best interviews so far.
I think its better for these athletes to have a managers that are focusing most in business side of their sport.. these managers should be intensively business minded focused on making money out of their sweet for the benefits of the sport, they should copy how Boxing is carried out. From Tanzania East Africa much respect to you Patrick.
This was a great interview!!! Phil needs to do this more. He is our ambassador in bodybuilding but I never see him doing things like this. This was great to see!!
WOW!! Much respect for Phil! I didn’t like his attitude, but now i can listen to this guy for hours. Such a strong mind!!! A champion mindset for every aspect of his life. Nothing like listening and hearing people for one hour to start respecting people! This channel is becoming my favorite one in whole TH-cam
Phil Heath, Thank you for being such a role model. The work ethic, intelligence, humility and dedication, to call it an inspiration is such an understatement... Thank you for doing what you do the way you do it. Thank you! Much love and respect.
YOU DID IT !!! I sent a comment to ask you to interview him one year ago and you answered to me responding , that i shoulded contact phil myself lol , super thanks !
This is why athletes and everyone in general need to learn about entrepreneurship. Phil has no clue he has the moral authority, leverage, and capabilities to completely change the body building industry. This is the mission of #Valuetaintment. The best thing Phil can do is stick to Pat and take him on that private conversation. Thank you Pat & team this was unbelievable
I like that Pat is putting it back on Phil at 29:00. You have ideas? What are you doing about it? Why don’t you have a team making these ideas a reality?
Exactly alot of excuses and not enough pushing for the body building culture. He can say a lot about Kai but he brand is legit and internationally known. Because he goes out there and prompts himself. He makes, youtube, ig, and fb post. He does more guest appearances then any other body builder out at this moment. I was stationed in Bahrain and Kai had 3 guest performance shows in Bahrain and the first hour all tickets were sold out. The craziest thing is i was like i go to dubai to see Kai, but those tickets where sold out as well. These shows hold up to 1000 or more seats and first day it was sold out in Bahrain, Dubai, Pakistan, Kuwait, and India online i was like wow thats something special.
I am completely a Phil Heath fan due to this interview. I really couldn’t stand the guy beforehand. He is a great champion and Christian and very inspiring person. He’s intelligent and has my vote for representative of the sport of bodybuilding!’
Whoever follows bodybuilding knows Phil is a little arrogant and cocky sometimes, but he has a good reason to be, hes the best, like it or not, and will probably beat the record for the most Olympia wins.
Lots of other GOATS are not like that: Dorian Yates, Wayne Gretzky, Ronnie Coleman, etc. Being humble when a GOAT earns huge respect and props. Easy to be arrogant and cocky - much less admirable.
Man this is awesome. This is what I like about Phil Heath that he's not in it for himself. He also, is a fan of bodybuilding and sees how this sport does not get the respect it deserves. I also, as a TH-camr will be doing a documentary video about the bodybuilding world to help show the world our world. We work just as hard as any other sports and we sacrifice a lot. This sport is 24/7 and thank you to the guy interviewing because he really helps by having this video. Very smart and educated and this video also, shows that we bodybuilders are not just meat heads. We can also, be educated and savvy. I truly believe we can bring this sport on the same level as other sports.
I think this was a GREAT interview, HOWEVER...Phil circle-jerking around the conversation about the steroid side of the game is unfortunate. He tried so hard to NOT expose the use & abuse of of these compounds, it was embarrassing to watch. The conversation NEEDS to be had. Its an integral side of the sport of bodybuilding. If the sport is looking to move forward and more in the publics' eye...then they better prepare. I'm not currently bodybuilding anymore, but have done a couple of cycles...saw results, but I'm a green-horned amateur. The shit is out there Phil...C'MON BRUH
The conversation needs to be had in the Medical Arena. A Bodybuilder discussing it isn't going to demystify anything and it won't stop the vilification of Steroid use. The other thing about it is that 100 bodybuilders will NOT have the same effects happening within their bodies. Speaking to known, unknown, predictable and unpredictable side effects on said bodies. Unfortunately, until a Steroid is utilized and effects are tested and measured, one won't know how it will effect them. That being said the Medical community needs to study these compounds intensively and comprehensively to create the safest possible way to utilize each Steroid. Otherwise these guys would just lose sponsorships and have people getting sick and dying saying, "I did everything you did", "you said it was safe", "and I'm dying", etc, etc,.
If Nike comes up with a Phil Heath model I buy it. I wish all these big brands make more clothing directed to bodybuilding. There are lots of bodybuilders out there in the gyms that will buy that clothing for sure. Work on it guys
This interview is so intense, interesting and captivating. Look at all Pat’s face expression. Is a little bit funny but also is in 5000% in what he is doing. Impressive. Thanks Pat, Mario & Mr.O 🔥
Awesome interview! Phil is a smart dude. I was lucky enough to work with him when I had him as an athlete under MET-Rx and we’ve done a few interviews for publications too.
Phil nailed it when he said the newer generation or even the youth don’t want to be judged, especially if he were to say this again today in 2022 how true is that now…. It may be good thing for them emotionally to not be judged but how will they overcome there flaws or strengthen there self esteem but rising above all the BS this is the difference today and why these kids crumble (not all) but most under stress and criticism and failing…. Everyone must fail to win to some degree ✌️🙏❤️💪
Finally some words from our Mr. O! Come on dude you have the guts to become as big as Arnold and maybe even bigger with help of social media. Content and collaborations! Love ya both!
Absolutely love the real talk in this interview. I think Phil Heath needs to take more responsibility upon himself to make these awesome things happen for the bodybuilding industry. I think his approach is expecting things to come to him instead of going out and making them happen like Arnold made them happen in his time.
Great interview Pat and Phil. I relate to much of the interview as I remember back to 6th grade. I started lifting weights and really getting into bodybuilding. It did wonders for my physical and mental health. I loved and still love what it teaches people concerning self discovery. Body building helped me grow and developed through discipline, motivation, setting goals and keeping commitments. I will be 50 in June own a company and work out 3 times per week. I owe a lot of my good health to getting involved with body building. Thank you Phil Heath for being a great leader in this industry.
Great interview Pat, my work ethic came from bodybuilding at an early age, no shortcuts or hack as they call it today, just hard work, dedication and committed to being the best! Phil/Mr. O and the whole bodybuilding community deserve way more recognition than they’re getting, as they have so much knowledge and inspiration that they can share, yet nobody is capitalizing on it… in a meaningful way. It’s going to take some time, and the right moves for the bodybuilding industry to catch up… or fade away like blackberry to stubborn to change until it’s too late. I believe Pat you just opened the door, let’s see who walks through :)
I hope so. This is an industry that deserves the proper attention. By the way, send Phil a tweet and let him know what your biggest takeaway was from this interview.
Is it just me or is there music playing in the background. Distracting. Unbelievable and candid interview by Patrick. Best interviewer. Knows how to allow the person interviewed to speak and to be the focal point and knows how to move the interview along
Great Interview Pat. I have been bodybuilding for 6 years now and it completely changed my life. I got confident, and learned that hard work always pays off, it taught me about having always a positive mind and following my dreams. I recently about a year ago discovered your channel, and it has boosted even more my burning desire to succeed in life. Thanks a lot Pat, great interview!! Keep inspiring each other!!
Funny enough, I am called a "meathead" but studied engineering, and build stuff for fun besides being an entrepreneur. People assume athletic looking people and athletes have no brains, so they often play themselves on that false assumption. Very useful for my business, I won't discourage them.
Same thing happens when people think you're "beautiful" therefore you're an "air-head"...I love people underestimating me and people like me, because then I can run circles around their arguments. lol
Well theres no correlation between muscles tissue on your body and brain right. Very true but well nowadays nerdy-smart too much study people probably don't have as much time to build their bodies to the level of Arnold or lots of them probably really don't care about bodybuilding.
Which is not a very good thing considering how useful and healthy working out are. Im also studying Engineering and planning to start working out soon. Do you have any tips as how to manage your time being an entreprenur and bodybuilder?
Wake up early. My day starts at 6am Sunday to Sunday no one does business before 8am so you have that window to prep meals and read mails / plan out your schedule/ do sets of push ups, abs and squats before showering. You never know how your day will be so at least fix a time to close shop. Say 7pm, no more business work (unless it's worth it), try to get an hour of training per evening, more if you really have nothing else planned. Weekend mornings usually people don't get up early for business, so you have till 9-10am to train if you are going to have a meeting or something, if not train till 3pm, then go socialize/ family weekend time / relax. That's my routine.
I must say, it is absolutely fascinating the level of scientific intellect bodybuilders have. Knowing what a piece of food does to your body at the cellular level. Poetry hearing it, absolute poetry.
Valuetainment Bodybuilders are athletes, which means it does take great self control, consistency and sacrifice to be the best. The tracking of everything food item you put into your body, making sure you get a decent sleep, self motivating yourself to go hard in the gym and on top of all that he worked at an establishment that was mentally and physically demanding (were he also went the extra mile to soak up the systems and process of how to run a business). That’s amazing. There is a bit of dishonesty when looking at Instagram which at time makes the sport look easy when in reality that is far from the truth. You need to be obsessive with your passion. I need to be obsessive with my passion!
So long Phil, PEACE! This does honestly explain why he has been deteriorating and not looking his 2011, 2012 shape anymore. He actually dissected the issue that everyone wanted to know.
Crazy how I’ve learnt more about Phil in 56 minutes then probably ever. Great insight on this man, shows there’s much more to him then bodybuilding and isn’t a STEREOTYPICAL meathead.
By far the best interview I’ve seen. Being a fan of the whole fitness world, watching this interview has opened my mind to the myriad of avenues that are available for change and progress within the industry. Extremely insightful video and I’ve learned a great deal. Thank you Phil and Pat.
I do think that for bodybuilding to blow up that there needs to be more exposure for Phil. He is the champ, he’s also a great representative for the sport. Someone who’s able to showcase that there is more to bodybuilding than the average person thinks. For a sport to become prominent there needs to be that larger than life personality with the spotlight on them. Look at McGregor and what he did for the UFC. I think Phil can do the same in his own way for bodybuilding, it’s just a matter of him getting the exposure.
This is what you call top .0000001% genetics. He played basketball, didnt even lift weights and still looked more aesthetic than most gym bros nowadays. His arm genetics were insane. 3:50
Killler Video! Been watching your channel for 9 months and you guys inspired me to start my own channel! Lots of hard work, but it's fulfilling! Made over 160 videos to date! Waahoo
Luke W You are being so consistent on your uploads which seemed good content. Amazon reselling, That's something I'm looking into. Just subscribed. Hope everything goes for best.
Hey thanks man! Really appreciate that Kobe. Working on building my Amazon FBA Business. College grad here who wants to build his own future instead! haha
Thank you Vamsi! yes I know that the compound effect really does take place and having uploaded videos very consistently is proving to grow my channel! It is work, but very enjoyable "work". haha Plus giving back to people content that helps them makes me feel fulfilled too
I was involved in bodybuilding for a long time about 30 years some of that was competing but always 100%training but I've payed the price my body joints play up massively and two lots of arm surgery and through 2 attacks have 9 heart stents and waiting for bypass but do I regret it not a bit but had to stop now at 55.👍
Considering Pat is worth around 70M and has connections etc... I'm not surprised. He's getting with the big boys now, and he's a good marketer for them :) Plus ok 500k subs. You can figure it out tbh.
It would be painful to watch because pat would talk for 2 mins and at the end ask a short question then interrupt Elon’s response talk for another 2 mins changing the topic and at the end ask a short question and repeat over and over.. i love pat but he really gotta work on his interview skills less trying to show off his knowledge in his questions and interrupting guests more letting his guests talk more
Your smile when Phil mentionned Bally's total fitness, when you yourself worked there younger, haha ! I'm into fitness since 3 years, and have had an interest in the bodybuilding world and olympia. I've always seen Phil Heath as a great entrepreneur. I've also been following your channel for more than a year now, so you can guess I was pretty excited when seeing you made this interview. Thank you, PBD ! Excellent content as always.
Great interview, Patrick! I watched it allll. Loved the discussion on Phil leveraging his status as a TRUE ELITE ATHLETE and a celebrity to further impact on others' quality of life and to take bodybuilding to new levels. I believe that the media, for whatever reason, moved from promoting and praising the muscular build to promoting the lean look. You can even see it in the transformation of how superheroes are portrayed. Meanwhile, like Phil said, it's still burnt into our psyches. We pose like bodybuilders to demonstrate winning or conquering something or just to show how fly we are. Much love from Barbados, Phil! Hope you return!

Phil Heath is so talkative. Ears are in pain now
above his work - hes smart af
Let people talk when you invite them...you talk more than the person who is supposed to speak.

I agree. Send Phil a tweet and let him know that.
I've met one female and male bodybuilder and their discipline is has dropping. You're so right.
Man but when you get burned out & stop. The results drop away rapidly. It is heartbreaking
Owesome Music 💯
Discipline yes, but the most selfish, lonely, egocentric, narcissistic activity ( yes as it is not a sport!) not to mention the `chemical` side of it which is a clear indication of drug addiction & not being right in the head! WOW, I so look up to these people...
It is so easy to blame people of using steroids. But what we some times oversee is this man's mindset, work ethic and discipline! 💪🔥

2 years late but couldn't agree more
2 years 8 months late but I also couldn’t agree more
True BUT the steroids do make a gargantuan difference, which is why they all take them.
Comments like this make me roll my eyes just as much as all the idiots screaming ‘steroids’ on every comment section of a bodybuilding related video
@@dustin6528 well done genius, there isnt a single ifbb pro on the planet that is natural
Wow you can tell this interview meant alot to him. So sweet. He seems very grateful to speak for himself and everyone like him.

Derek it’s interesting watching this and then seeing the news about the new show set up by Dwayne Johnson, almost prophetic.

@@johnchase4408 bingo. There are books on steroids, but the guinea pigs dont wanna talk about them for some reason.
I've seen a lot of interviews with Phil Heath over the years and you can see how much his personality has developed

Its an extreme “art”
Why soften it up by calling it "gear". He abused his body with steroids. "Gear" reminds me of when drug dealers would name their drugs after candy.
Phil you're my favourite. The speech that you gave when you won the 7th Mr Olympia with Dwayne Johnson was so inspiring. Loved it.
I Love Phil Heath's attitude on social media. Every picture I see of him everyone is trying to out-angle him meanwhile he's happy and carefree and doesn't give a shit. LOL
Great interview. People are hating on Phil but he deserves to be confident. A master of body and mind.

This is why athletes and everyone in general need to learn about entrepreneurship. Phil has no clue he has the moral authority, leverage, and capabilities to completely change the body building industry. This is the mission of #Valuetaintment. The best thing Phil can do is stick to Pat and take him on that private conversation. Thank you Pat & team this was unbelievable
I like that Pat is putting it back on Phil at 29:00. You have ideas? What are you doing about it? Why don’t you have a team making these ideas a reality?
Absolutely!! Phil MUST do More!!
Leo de Smidt he doesn’t have to do it alone, but he needs to build a team of people who can support him if he wants to do something really amazing.
Exactly alot of excuses and not enough pushing for the body building culture. He can say a lot about Kai but he brand is legit and internationally known. Because he goes out there and prompts himself. He makes, youtube, ig, and fb post. He does more guest appearances then any other body builder out at this moment. I was stationed in Bahrain and Kai had 3 guest performance shows in Bahrain and the first hour all tickets were sold out. The craziest thing is i was like i go to dubai to see Kai, but those tickets where sold out as well. These shows hold up to 1000 or more seats and first day it was sold out in Bahrain, Dubai, Pakistan, Kuwait, and India online i was like wow thats something special.
Phil "It's gotta be a million" Pat"First place 10 million dollar contract". Your world is as great as your dreams.
I am completely a Phil Heath fan due to this interview. I really couldn’t stand the guy beforehand. He is a great champion and Christian and very inspiring person. He’s intelligent and has my vote for representative of the sport of bodybuilding!’
Whoever follows bodybuilding knows Phil is a little arrogant and cocky sometimes, but he has a good reason to be, hes the best, like it or not, and will probably beat the record for the most Olympia wins.
react prestigious totally agree mate
Lots of other GOATS are not like that: Dorian Yates, Wayne Gretzky, Ronnie Coleman, etc. Being humble when a GOAT earns huge respect and props. Easy to be arrogant and cocky - much less admirable.
My opinion of Phil Heath has changed drastically after this video. Massive respect for him now!
One of the best interviews i have watched so far. Never knew Phil was such a great man. Love this guy!!
Send him a tweet & let him know.
Man this is awesome. This is what I like about Phil Heath that he's not in it for himself. He also, is a fan of bodybuilding and sees how this sport does not get the respect it deserves. I also, as a TH-camr will be doing a documentary video about the bodybuilding world to help show the world our world. We work just as hard as any other sports and we sacrifice a lot. This sport is 24/7 and thank you to the guy interviewing because he really helps by having this video. Very smart and educated and this video also, shows that we bodybuilders are not just meat heads. We can also, be educated and savvy. I truly believe we can bring this sport on the same level as other sports.
I think this was a GREAT interview, HOWEVER...Phil circle-jerking around the conversation about the steroid side of the game is unfortunate. He tried so hard to NOT expose the use & abuse of of these compounds, it was embarrassing to watch. The conversation NEEDS to be had. Its an integral side of the sport of bodybuilding. If the sport is looking to move forward and more in the publics' eye...then they better prepare.
I'm not currently bodybuilding anymore, but have done a couple of cycles...saw results, but I'm a green-horned amateur. The shit is out there Phil...C'MON BRUH
The conversation needs to be had in the Medical Arena. A Bodybuilder discussing it isn't going to demystify anything and it won't stop the vilification of Steroid use. The other thing about it is that 100 bodybuilders will NOT have the same effects happening within their bodies. Speaking to known, unknown, predictable and unpredictable side effects on said bodies. Unfortunately, until a Steroid is utilized and effects are tested and measured, one won't know how it will effect them. That being said the Medical community needs to study these compounds intensively and comprehensively to create the safest possible way to utilize each Steroid. Otherwise these guys would just lose sponsorships and have people getting sick and dying saying, "I did everything you did", "you said it was safe", "and I'm dying", etc, etc,.
Everybody knows its out there. I think we fans need stop mocking the athletes for that.
I love everything about this interview. If this were to go completely viral it would give the world a completely different perspective of bodybuilding
If Nike comes up with a Phil Heath model I buy it. I wish all these big brands make more clothing directed to bodybuilding. There are lots of bodybuilders out there in the gyms that will buy that clothing for sure. Work on it guys
Send @philheath a tweet and let him know that. He would like to hear from you.
After watch this interview my Respect for Phil Heath has grown 1000% .
You can understand why he is Mr.Olympia
This interview is so intense, interesting and captivating. Look at all Pat’s face expression. Is a little bit funny but also is in 5000% in what he is doing. Impressive.
Thanks Pat, Mario & Mr.O 🔥
Imagine if Patrick promoted bodybuilding? Man he’d be selling out events like crazy. This was an amazing interview.
Awesome interview! Phil is a smart dude. I was lucky enough to work with him when I had him as an athlete under MET-Rx and we’ve done a few interviews for publications too.
Phil nailed it when he said the newer generation or even the youth don’t want to be judged, especially if he were to say this again today in 2022 how true is that now…. It may be good thing for them emotionally to not be judged but how will they overcome there flaws or strengthen there self esteem but rising above all the BS this is the difference today and why these kids crumble (not all) but most under stress and criticism and failing…. Everyone must fail to win to some degree ✌️🙏❤️💪
Great interview with MR.O...he is a great man
Finally some words from our Mr. O! Come on dude you have the guts to become as big as Arnold and maybe even bigger with help of social media. Content and collaborations! Love ya both!
Thank you valutainment ... Waiting for this for a long time.
Thanks a lot
Love the conversation gentleman! Everyone has ideas but that next level guy is raaaaare
Absolutely love the real talk in this interview. I think Phil Heath needs to take more responsibility upon himself to make these awesome things happen for the bodybuilding industry. I think his approach is expecting things to come to him instead of going out and making them happen like Arnold made them happen in his time.
I looooove these long interviewes! Always a pleasure. Could listen to people like Phil Heath and Steve Cook for ages!
An hour well spent. I would like to see you two making volume 2 already.
Send a tweet to @philheath and let him know.
Great interview Pat and Phil. I relate to much of the interview as I remember back to 6th grade. I started lifting weights and really getting into bodybuilding. It did wonders for my physical and mental health. I loved and still love what it teaches people concerning self discovery. Body building helped me grow and developed through discipline, motivation, setting goals and keeping commitments. I will be 50 in June own a company and work out 3 times per week. I owe a lot of my good health to getting involved with body building. Thank you Phil Heath for being a great leader in this industry.
His story is priceless. Be sure to send him a tweet and ask him about the weekly thoughts. @philheath
Great interview Pat, my work ethic came from bodybuilding at an early age, no shortcuts or hack as they call it today, just hard work, dedication and committed to being the best! Phil/Mr. O and the whole bodybuilding community deserve way more recognition than they’re getting, as they have so much knowledge and inspiration that they can share, yet nobody is capitalizing on it… in a meaningful way. It’s going to take some time, and the right moves for the bodybuilding industry to catch up… or fade away like blackberry to stubborn to change until it’s too late. I believe Pat you just opened the door, let’s see who walks through :)
I hope so. This is an industry that deserves the proper attention. By the way, send Phil a tweet and let him know what your biggest takeaway was from this interview.
Phil is a genius and one of my inpiritations to work out at an impossible life-style to put workouts into it, thankyou Phil Heath.
Insanely insanely Insanely insane.
I loved it Pat. This is what makes this platform very very much apart from others💪💪💪💪💪
This is the best Phil Heath interview I have seen.
Dang one of the Best interviews I have seen of Phil.
Let him know on Twitter
I listen to the same music and im born '85
Good to know Phil on that level
Phil Heath my boy 💪🏿💯🏋🏿
You have to love Phil. People talk shit about him, and why? This is a super bright, disciplined person. Wish you the best come 2020!!
I once had a 10 min chat with Phil, he is a very kind fella. Just as he was in this video.
One of your best interviews hands down. Gotta lot of respect for Phil.
Wow. Another phenomenal interview. Every week you surprise us. I'm literally shocked when I see who you're interviewing. Thanks!
Absolute GOLD interviews.. not just the usual internet promoters.
Is it just me or is there music playing in the background. Distracting. Unbelievable and candid interview by Patrick. Best interviewer. Knows how to allow the person interviewed to speak and to be the focal point and knows how to move the interview along
👍🏼
Best interviews on TH-cam
not interviews conversations....he is a terrible interviewer
Great Interview Pat. I have been bodybuilding for 6 years now and it completely changed my life. I got confident, and learned that hard work always pays off, it taught me about having always a positive mind and following my dreams. I recently about a year ago discovered your channel, and it has boosted even more my burning desire to succeed in life. Thanks a lot Pat, great interview!! Keep inspiring each other!!
Funny enough, I am called a "meathead" but studied engineering, and build stuff for fun besides being an entrepreneur. People assume athletic looking people and athletes have no brains, so they often play themselves on that false assumption. Very useful for my business, I won't discourage them.
Same thing happens when people think you're "beautiful" therefore you're an "air-head"...I love people underestimating me and people like me, because then I can run circles around their arguments. lol
Well theres no correlation between muscles tissue on your body and brain right. Very true but well nowadays nerdy-smart too much study people probably don't have as much time to build their bodies to the level of Arnold or lots of them probably really don't care about bodybuilding.
Which is not a very good thing considering how useful and healthy working out are. Im also studying Engineering and planning to start working out soon. Do you have any tips as how to manage your time being an entreprenur and bodybuilder?
Wake up early. My day starts at 6am Sunday to Sunday no one does business before 8am so you have that window to prep meals and read mails / plan out your schedule/ do sets of push ups, abs and squats before showering. You never know how your day will be so at least fix a time to close shop. Say 7pm, no more business work (unless it's worth it), try to get an hour of training per evening, more if you really have nothing else planned. Weekend mornings usually people don't get up early for business, so you have till 9-10am to train if you are going to have a meeting or something, if not train till 3pm, then go socialize/ family weekend time / relax. That's my routine.
@@Apples2apples871 so your beautiful and a linguistic genius? Even if you do say so your self!
I must say, it is absolutely fascinating the level of scientific intellect bodybuilders have. Knowing what a piece of food does to your body at the cellular level. Poetry hearing it, absolute poetry.
Awesome video! Really enjoy watching these interviews and would love to see more!
I have a newfound respect for Phil beyond his hard work.
Amazing interview, was very suprised how down to earth and articulate this guy was. Please do an interview with Mayweather Jr or McGregor.
what a fantastic interview, never heard phil dropping such wisdom, the part where he talks about his business education, amazing..
This was one of my favorite interviews haves down 🙌🏿 Thank you 🙏🏿
What was your biggest takeaway?
Valuetainment Bodybuilders are athletes, which means it does take great self control, consistency and sacrifice to be the best. The tracking of everything food item you put into your body, making sure you get a decent sleep, self motivating yourself to go hard in the gym and on top of all that he worked at an establishment that was mentally and physically demanding (were he also went the extra mile to soak up the systems and process of how to run a business). That’s amazing. There is a bit of dishonesty when looking at Instagram which at time makes the sport look easy when in reality that is far from the truth. You need to be obsessive with your passion. I need to be obsessive with my passion!
So long Phil, PEACE! This does honestly explain why he has been deteriorating and not looking his 2011, 2012 shape anymore. He actually dissected the issue that everyone wanted to know.
Very intelligent guy. Great interview pat!
Crazy how I’ve learnt more about Phil in 56 minutes then probably ever. Great insight on this man, shows there’s much more to him then bodybuilding and isn’t a STEREOTYPICAL meathead.
By far the best interview I’ve seen. Being a fan of the whole fitness world, watching this interview has opened my mind to the myriad of avenues that are available for change and progress within the industry. Extremely insightful video and I’ve learned a great deal. Thank you Phil and Pat.
Raj Kulkarni It shows the limits and pitfalls the industry has too.
Phil a true champion. Thank you so much Patrick. Lots of education. Stay blessed Man & Stay great...💪👊
I do think that for bodybuilding to blow up that there needs to be more exposure for Phil. He is the champ, he’s also a great representative for the sport. Someone who’s able to showcase that there is more to bodybuilding than the average person thinks. For a sport to become prominent there needs to be that larger than life personality with the spotlight on them. Look at McGregor and what he did for the UFC. I think Phil can do the same in his own way for bodybuilding, it’s just a matter of him getting the exposure.
Send him a tweet and let him know that.
Oskar Musial he is not a great representative. You didnt watch him much did you?
M2J2X care to elaborate
Wow, much respect to Phil Heath! Great guy, and he deserves way more than he already has.
Phil impressed me for the first time lol
Pat you are a great interviewer. A real listener and get a lot out of who you interview.
I have to agree with the interviewer's theory on PEDs deterring publicity.
I may not know this guy personally but I respect him as a pro period!!!
This is what you call top .0000001% genetics. He played basketball, didnt even lift weights and still looked more aesthetic than most gym bros nowadays. His arm genetics were insane. 3:50
Very likely he was already working out and maybe already taking supplements... Who knows?
Valuetainment is a really cool channel I am enjoying all of these videos in my spare time as a person and a "young" businessman.
Title should be
"How could we get Phil some more money"
First time ever i listened to Phil , thats was really a great one. We really need Body building a more support and be global
Killler Video! Been watching your channel for 9 months and you guys inspired me to start my own channel! Lots of hard work, but it's fulfilling! Made over 160 videos to date! Waahoo
Luke W You got a nice channel! Keep up!
Luke W You are being so consistent on your uploads which seemed good content. Amazon reselling, That's something I'm looking into. Just subscribed. Hope everything goes for best.
Hey thanks man! Really appreciate that Kobe. Working on building my Amazon FBA Business. College grad here who wants to build his own future instead! haha
Luke W I
Thank you Vamsi! yes I know that the compound effect really does take place and having uploaded videos very consistently is proving to grow my channel! It is work, but very enjoyable "work". haha Plus giving back to people content that helps them makes me feel fulfilled too
I was involved in bodybuilding for a long time about 30 years some of that was competing but always 100%training but I've payed the price my body joints play up massively and two lots of arm surgery and through 2 attacks have 9 heart stents and waiting for bypass but do I regret it not a bit but had to stop now at 55.👍
How does Pat get all these people. Honestly it is really impressive.
I Couldn't Think Of An Original Name seriously
Considering Pat is worth around 70M and has connections etc... I'm not surprised. He's getting with the big boys now, and he's a good marketer for them :)
Plus ok 500k subs.
You can figure it out tbh.
Phil says it the way it is. I respect that.
parts of this were like sitting in on a business meeting, awesome stuff!!
you can love him or hate him but you gotta respect the amount of effort he has put in over the years
Elon Musk is next sir?
Tweet him.
Yes !!
please!!
would love that! he is my biggest idol
It would be painful to watch because pat would talk for 2 mins and at the end ask a short question then interrupt Elon’s response talk for another 2 mins changing the topic and at the end ask a short question and repeat over and over.. i love pat but he really gotta work on his interview skills less trying to show off his knowledge in his questions and interrupting guests more letting his guests talk more
I really like this guy, honest straight talking dude...
Good interview.....
what an incredible ambassador of the sport Phil is. give credit where it is due guys
Let him know that on twitter.
Your smile when Phil mentionned Bally's total fitness, when you yourself worked there younger, haha ! I'm into fitness since 3 years, and have had an interest in the bodybuilding world and olympia. I've always seen Phil Heath as a great entrepreneur. I've also been following your channel for more than a year now, so you can guess I was pretty excited when seeing you made this interview. Thank you, PBD ! Excellent content as always.
💪🏽He’s a smart guy.
Can't call him a meathead can't you. He's intelligent in his field. It's inspiring.
love this Great point of views from both sides
Great interview, Patrick! I watched it allll. Loved the discussion on Phil leveraging his status as a TRUE ELITE ATHLETE and a celebrity to further impact on others' quality of life and to take bodybuilding to new levels. I believe that the media, for whatever reason, moved from promoting and praising the muscular build to promoting the lean look. You can even see it in the transformation of how superheroes are portrayed. Meanwhile, like Phil said, it's still burnt into our psyches. We pose like bodybuilders to demonstrate winning or conquering something or just to show how fly we are. Much love from Barbados, Phil! Hope you return!
