"From the back I don't think i even need to make a comment" is my favorite line, but awesome interview overall :)

[@grapograc]

That was gangsta

[@cb737]

Dorian is talking straight facts as always. Its like boxing, doesnt matter if one boxer wins 7 rounds marginally and loses 5 terribly, they still win the fight, no matter how much you disagree.

[@chrisgalbraith547]

Dorian is the greatest, pure and simple!

[@jakubantal2546]

Dave's laughter after mentioning Milos was just super real :D

[@constantinnae5566]

Real master of The sport.

Even where there is light Dorian is The Shadow...GOAT

[@clutchpanda6454]

Dorian is a Living Legend

[@ricze6]

I thought Dave would be getting the scraps because Dorian did so many other long interviews. Boy, was I wrong. I loved Dorian's analysis of his 6 Olympia's.

[@frankprzybylski2098]

How does this post only have 3k likes? The garbage that’s being promoted and celebrated today on the internet compares nothing to this material. There is so much science and testimony in this video. What a gold mine of information. Thank you, Dorian for being committed and disciplined.

[@Joni_Papillon]

One can tell when Dorian speaks that he is telling the truuth! At this point, so many years after his career, why make anything up anyway. Mad respect for the Shadow!

[@ClickClack_Bam]

While I believe Dorian others look to secure their legacy... Just look at Gregg Valentino still denying synthol use and telling people he injected that much fucking test that it did that to his arms.

[@michaelr.4878]

I am a very skeptical person in general, but I totally believe Valentino. Try injecting 30ccs of anything into a small muscle group every week and see what happens. The guy was injecting bottles of test..which is an oil, multiple times a week.

[@Joni_Papillon]

Breakneck You cant compare Dorian with Valentino.

[@marksolstafir]

Yup, he's telling the truth - except for the doses.

[@big_mike_nyc]

I remember training in Bevs seeing him train! I was astonished by his size my fav body builder of all time!

[@stevenewer1]

i saw dorian at his best 1994 april before his bicep tear at the david lloyd club southall middx for a seminar and posing , my girlfriend was a photographer and i still have the photos, he said he was 315lbs

This was worth it just to hear The Shadow's contest prep stack. Excellent interview! Thank you Dave and Dorian. 👍

Unmatched focus and dedication that is amazing to observe and hear about. My favorite Olympian that introduced me to bodybuilding. Hats off to you Dorian, thank you fo everything you're giving back to help others progress still.

[@ratedr7582]

The shadow man this dude is such a legend lol love how he said from the back no need to talk about that an he's right its over

[@ivancandido1973]

Fantastic. Maybe It was the really best Interview ever made of Dorian Yates.

[@mikevaldez7684]

At 9 min I love his full break down of the 11 poses !! Awesome, pragmatic no nonsense breakdown analysis against all his competitors...😂😂😂

[@i_kill_for_zardoz]

Yep.. it was cool to hear him be honest about his weaknesses. I guess so much time has passed now that he's more open about it. The way posing is scored explains how he was able to win with torn muscles. Reminds me of people complaining that Hillary didn't win despite having more popular vote. The election isn't based on the popular vote, just like the Olympia isn't based on how amazing your front double biceps pose looks. If that was the case, Flex would have never lost.

[@dankheisenberg]

I_Kill_For_Zardoz - he's not completely honest about his weaknesses though

[@jamesrelinski8853]

Here is the magic stack kids... What Dorian Yates was and is on, DOES NOT COME IN A BOTTLE. It's genetics, hard work and determination. And ya, gear helps. But if that's all it took there'd be a Mr O in every gym.

[@michaeledwards1644]

agree with Dorian on the heavy training for the granite type look he had...which is why Branch had it also

[@ANOOPBAL]

Spoke like Dorian. Very analytical and systematic in his evaluation why he won the 97 Mr. Olympia!

[@boramormont6358]

"Back lat spread-good night" is now my favorite Dorian Yates quote

[@vitmatyas2097]

exactly.... and the way how he described the other poses is just clear.....

Dorian is the GOAT no question about that. This man is the Napoleon of bodybuilding. Conqueror since day 1.

[@giganticitalianbodybuildin1584]

[@cheihachi]

Man Dorian is interesting to listen to. Him and Lee Haney are the best.

[@earlreel7519]

He mentioned doses of gear before meeting with Dan Duchaine, but he didn't mention doses after. Just 1000 mg of test a week. He told his contest stack, but no dosages. Would have loved to hear a little more on that. Incredible interview! Absolutely love Dorian. Best Mr Olympia of all time in my opinion, because he changed more about the sport than any Olympia champ EVER!!!

[@edfrazier5751]

Undoubtedly the best Dorian interview Ever! He is so comfortable in hos own skin these days and nothing to prove or deny! Straight up heres whats up... Dave i gotta go...food is ready! Love it Thanks Dorian . a living Icon for all of us meatheads!

[@viveremilitareest9281]

He does seem comfortable eh. He looks better than ever, and he seems happier than ever. He's also based about the rothschilds and all that stuff too. He's truly a wonderful guy.

[@user-hy4jt8sr6y]

Was that the Olymia that was stolen from Nasser el Sombati? He wasn't even close to Nasser.

[@deegee3195]

I genuinely respect the guys the don’t BS and just speak their minds, too many youtubers worried about followers and their image... I’ve always followed Dorian and as he has achieved everything there is to achieve in bodybuilding - in my opinion he is someone to listen to..

[@kevinsteele5104]

“From the back let’s move on”. Dorian Yates. Awesome interview Dave.

[@davenportbarbell734]

Dorian is great

[@dubenstein6347]

During a grappling tournament I tore my bicep in fascia not at the forearm in 2016. Like Dorians injury, you cannot surgically repair this. It is now April 2018 and I can only get 5-7 pull-ups, and curl up to 20lb dumbell. It's amazing what he went through and competed

[@aburl0311]

The quality of competition in the 90's was unreal. Phil wouldn't even get to stand next to The Shadow in a callout.

[@BRUTUSz]

Dorian trained hard and controlled. I wish i could se it fore my own eyes how Dorian trained. Back then, no phones,no talking only training no BULLSHIT.

[@keviniron1637]

2nd Greatest video ever Dave! 😀

[@badass1g]

Cool to hear about doses. Would like to hear more stuff like that, if you could get kevin Levrone to talk about dosing and compounds that would be great. I never have heard him mention any of it.

[@JerkVegas86]

Levrone The Lier LOL

[@timothymark389]

He has a few times mentioned 600 sus & 400 deca in a few earlier podcasts but you could clearly tell he didn’t want to answer it

LIES

[@johnnychrysostomou8105]

Ye! even if Kevin did talk about it i don,t think you get the true dose ,very hard to find a bodybuilder tell you what and how they take it it,s almost an un spoken thing with bodybuilders bit like the magic circle who keep tricks of the trade secret that is why i liked Rich Piana R,I,P he said how it was

[@fatboitino2]

He did mention it, as long with Dorian in an old interview from Muscular Development. I made copies,hahah

Now your interviewing the greatest and one of hardest bodybuilders to interview. The guys nickname is the shadow for christ sake. You have done it. Im afraid you get Arnold next you might retire.

[@zaneh2586]

Thanks for doing this interview Dorian

[@12radiolondon]

It is amazing how Dorian managed to educate himself without Internet back then. If Internet shuts down now, most people will not manage one day without it. I remember those times, when the only way to read about bodybuilding was Muscle and fitness and Flex magazines. And they were issued ones a month. And there were no digital cameras either. Only 35mm films, which needed to be developed in laboratories for photos. That is why I appreciate and rate Dorian very high.

[@BenjiBoy09]

Can't wait for the next instalment.

[@skitzoo242]

We need more of these videos, educative and honest.

[@ralphacero2785]

In the bodybuilding circus, quantity beats quality, and Dorian had both.

[@praveenpande4786]

Small wonder that he was unbeatable at the Olympia, took nothing for granted, did the calculations to the "T" Even when he was not 100% he knew that he would still win even after allowing for where he fell short. His judgement was never clouded by his ego but his belief in himself and his work ethics. Doubt that we will ever see a champion of his calibre ever again.

[@EricPetersen2922]

love the post. no bullshit just reality. big Dorian fan. Dave doing a great job! brilliant!

[@analogcrunch4716]

You know what's funny is gym bros seem to bash HIT and Dorians style yet they pretty much do it. All I see everywhere is a top set and a back off set. There's 2 sets. Dorian just explained he did 2 or so sets to failure.

[@tokenfatfriend68]

Wow shots fired at Phil. Lol.

[@timjones7336]

Token Fatfriend not really. Phil is shorter, not as wide and no more muscular than many of Dorians key competitors. Phil benefits from a lack of competition, modern high quality photography and the information age when many more people can watch much better quality footage of his shows. Look at the ‘93 Olympia for example, and observe how much bigger, denser, better conditioned and deeper cut Dorian is than Kevin Levrone. Then look at Kevin at the ‘96 Arnold Classic for example. Compare this Kevin to the 2016 Olympia where Kevin was 40 pounds lighter with saggy old man skin and no legs. Yet Kevin is still taller and wider than Phil. Imagine prime Kevin vs. Phil. Kevin has the advantage from the front, his back would be wider, but Phil’s more detailed. It’d be a good comparison, but Kevin likely has the edge - being taller, wider and bigger. Now image prime Flex. Now note how much bigger and better conditioned Dorian is against those guys - Phil would be just another small, less detailed bodybuilder fighting for Dorians scraps.

[@tokenfatfriend68]

Tim Jones I guess you don’t know the meaning of “shots fired”. I’m not disagreeing with Dorian. Clearly he was better and had no hesitation to say so. So “shots fired” at Phil and all the modern day bodybuilders.

[@_Nosferatu_]

Tim Jones Phil is a god to Kevin from the back, and even from the side Phil is super thick, he's not flex, kev or shawn. Phil is more detailed and thicker than them, he has very few weaknesses. I think Phil would've lost against a prime Dorian, but it definitely wouldn't be a total blow out like you probably think. Flex wasn't the same after the accident, he never had that 93 conditioning again, and started using synthol that made him look worse. Kevin never had a back in his life, and rarely did his legs match his upper body, so right off Phil beats them, and he would've lost to a prime Dorian but I definitely don't think Dorian would've blow him out, no way.
