middle of his physique and a horizontal line from elbow to elbow that would make any carpenter ’ s spirit level balance on point . Kai is a phenomenal bodybuilder , but next to someone as genetically gifted and symmetrically genius as Phil , he just isn ' t good enough to take the number 1 slot . Taking the fan ' s award for 2014 , Kai lacks muscle in no area and is capable of easily being the most shredded athlete on stage , but this is a contest of finding the most perfect physique in the world and putting a crown on it . No background , no childhood , no upbringing and no hardship means anything on this stage because this is a search for the finest physique on the planet right now .
Phil Heath has it and will remain on that throne for a long while to come . In fact , looking at Shawn Rhoden ' s progress going into this show , one of two things could happen from here on forward . If Heath continues to improve , I don ' t see anyone taking the title from him any time soon . The fight for second place is going to get interesting though because even though Kai might outweigh Rhoden by a substantial amount , the fight for second place is going to become really interesting if Rhoden starts to dial in even more of his potential in the next few years .

In my mind Shawn Rhoden was one of the most impressive athletes of the competition . As I ' ve said before , his incredible structure and immaculate symmetry have just needed some time to really come into their own .
This contest has proven that Rhoden is really starting to tap into that potential and I think the next few years are really going to show how talented Shawn is as an athlete if he is up to the task of really digging in and becoming the best bodybuilder he can be . He was shredded from head to toe and although still undersized compared to the top two Olympians , Rhoden has proven to Kai and Phil that he is coming at pace and can ' t wait to join the party . I give it one or two more years of us seeing this constant battle between Kai and Phil , but I truly believe that it ' s only a matter of time before the Phil and Kai show soon becomes the Phil and Shawn Rhoden show .
