Men’s open bodybuilding is one of the most popular categories in Mr. Olympia. Moreover, most legendary bodybuilders like Arnold Schwarzenegger, Ronnie Coleman, Dorian Yates, etc. are a product of this category as well. However, in the last decade, two bodybuilders have dominated the category – 7x winner Phil Heath and 2x winner Mamdouh Elssbiay A.K.A. Big Ramy.

However, Phil Heath will be seen in the commentary panel this year, while Big Ramy will be witnessed on stage defending his title. Let’s compare the stats between Phil Heath and Big Ramy, ahead of Mr. Olympia 2022.

Body measurements: Phil Heath vs. Big Ramy 

Phil Heath dominated most of the last decade with his incredibly massive physique that led him to win seven consecutive titles.

The 5’9″ tall Heath weighed 245-255lbs during the competitions. Moreover, he had massive 23″ arms with a 54″ chest. Notably, Heath also had a similarly indestructible lower body strength as his upper body. The former Mr. Olympia had mighty 32″ thighs and 20″ calves with a slim 29″ waist.
