Phils exagerating--lol--the only thing I ever taught him was how to tell a good joke because I was his audience and the guy is one of the funniest guys there is and I used to laugh my ass off at some of his comedy material. You know you meet alot of people in this sport (pros, top ams competitors) and to this day Phil is the most genuine. Deserves the very best in life (in my opinion).
Im pretty sure it was Phil who told me that (jokingly toungue in cheek) he advised a competitor dropping water the last couple days before contest to piss in a cup and measure the level and make sure you drink down the exact water amount in the same cup right after--LOLOL
To this day I feel Phil, Dorian, Cutler and Prince are the only guys who could hang with the 'brothers' due to overwhelming size and no weak bodyparts and phil had the smallest waist (by far) of those four. Back before his pro card when I had my mag I remember talking to alot of the national competitors in Phils class at that time and i would throw out other national heavyweight names to see what they thought and they all would find something wrong with someone elses physique--then Id throw out "Phil Hernon" and it would always be "guys a monster, no weaknesses, tough to beat if he comes in shredded" They always hoped he would come in out of shape cuz it sure as hell wasnt fun standing next to him.
id love to see him get back onstage--whether in this sport or in comedy
