Generation Iron Page #2

the physique, the mindset.

I think he has the fire

in the belly to be a champion,

which is something he wants to

do for the next several years.

So I think we'll have

the next Ronnie Coleman.

Phil Heath, also known

as "The Gift,"

is the image of confidence.

The Olympia competition

is still weeks away.

Some of his contenders

have yet to qualify,

yet he has no qualms

about having a suit tailored

for his victory.

I'm not gonna lie,

I mean, I kinda like knowing

that when I win,

not only I outshine them on

stage, but then off stage.

Because I know

that I'm covering every angle

to be better than them.

If I go out on the town

with the missus,

or if I'm going out

with the guys,

I'm wearing button-downs, you know,

I'm wearin' the same stuff,

the guy would be like,

"How did you fit in that?"

I say,

"Well I got a tailor, bro."

There're always contenders

waiting to rise.

Waiting for the perfect moment

to take advantage

of a misstep...

an unseen weakness.

This is Kai Greene, his nemesis,

his enemy, studying every pose.

He has 11 weeks to prepare.

For me, winning the Olympia

is a celebration

for a lot of people that

at least can share in the idea

that well, you know,

maybe I wasn't

born with the best genetics,

or maybe I wasn't born

with the most

dashing good looks,

but there's something to be said

for hard work.

So, you know, we can say,

"Keep your gifts."

I work hard.

I know how to work real hard.

Even if I tear a bicep,

I'm still gonna stay

on my discipline.

Look at me from every angle,

and you're not gonna see

one piece of my body

that's undeveloped.

I'm gonna develop symmetry,

conditioning,

and I am going to whup

the ass of anyone

that stands there believing that

all it takes is genetics.

Hard work beats

talent all the time.

Well, that's what he's thinking.

He thinks that hard work

is gonna beat talent.

When talent

actually works hard, it's over.

There's nothing that that other

person can do about it.

That confidence has lead Phil

to achieve a greatness

few can dream of.

But pride and arrogance

have been the downfall

of many great men.

Kai never had a family.

His mother abandoned him

when he was a teenager.

And from that point on,

he was raised

by various foster parents,

moving from home to home.

Kai grew angry

and aggressive over time.

Before long, he found himself

in a juvenile detention facility.

His story would have ended there

if he hadn't discovered bodybuilding.

The feelings of being unsafe,

feeling unsafe,

constantly under threat.

I remember I was in the process

of being restrained while fighting,

my shirt had gotten torn

in the midst
