Can't wait Dorian. Keep these podcasts coming, they're awesome. Thank you for everything

[@DorianYatesNutrition]

Thanks for listening!

[@products4less409]

BRECKA IS A CON MAN. NOBODY CAN PREDICT EXACT DEATH OF SOMEONE. CON MAN.

[@bigbenpbr]

Just finished my high intensity lifting session. Now, listening to this. Thanks, Dorian!

[@DorianYatesNutrition]

Enjoy!

[@mrdavis2079]

Hi Dorian, Loving your podcasts, hope you get many more guests, you interview very well, first heard about you on the Joe Rogan podcast, now follow your weight training system, love to ask questions about training sometime, All the best, Howard.

[@johnmcfall1703]

Dorian is a very intelligent and a wealth of knowledge when it comes to nutrition and how the body works (The mechanics) from his Body Building experience, he is well informed from the many books and magazines his read throughout the years also communicating with other people and I believe Dorian learnt a thing or two from Gary Brecka. Keep up the good work Dorian the more information you share the wiser we become.

[@codywallison]

One of the greatest podcasts I’ve ever seen thank you

[@DorianYatesNutrition]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@MattDeloff_Online]

My all time favorite bodybuilder mixing it up with Gary. This is awesome.

[@Lektuerekurs]

Thanks for these Podcasts! A small pattern that I'm noticing in G.B.'s Podcasts appearances is that he must make sure to never answer a question upfront, but only after some elaboration. "Hey Gary, do you like apples or oranges?" - "Well, first of all me must define in what way you mean 'like'? Is it the fibre-content, or how they can be stored without spoiling or maybe vitamins per price or per weight? I mean, both have fructose and we can speak about that, too. But yeah, in general I tend to like apples more. I mean it would probably be a good idea to first check your genetic markers first and then we can see if you should eat apples or oranges instead."

I'm living proof that activity and exercise is the solution to depression.

[@swingingmonk]

This is a great episode to learn, very informative and no fluff, just straight to the point.

[@aliensnail7173]

Dorian, I always enjoy hearing your talks. Im glad you make these podcasts cause ive already hunted most of the old interviews. please continue with them.

[@TAOKYA]

Another awesome show. Kudos to the champ “The Shadow” again for putting this together.

[@ChristOfHer333]

Absolutely fascinating! Thank you!

[@Chaz_Overland]

Very interesting. Thanks.

[@erindoyle6650]

This guy knows so much & shares it so people can understand and help themselves. Medical model is not to educate patients. That way they can do as they will. I think Gary Brecka is a hero!

[@TheJuststeph]

[@davidseva6533]

Ronnie & Jay have won Arnold's lifetime achievement award, when is Dorian going to win this award or is being associated with Mike Mentzer hurting his chances. I personally would give Dorian this award for being a speaker of the truth and helping people and not being marketer and promoter type.

[@jimmyhutton7213]

Arnold should hope one day he's lucky enough to win the Dorian Yates award 😂 Dorain is the true GOAT

[@milaymelsheimer877]

This might be the best utube interview video I have ever listened to. Wow!!! Super super interesting!! And Gary has a special gift of explaining simplifying information so that the listener doesn’t get lost and miss the impactful message! Thank you!!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@DorianYatesNutrition]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@jdgeibe]

Hell Yeah!!!

[@cesarr5006]

REALLY REALLY GOOD STUFF! THAT'S WHAT ITS ABOUT, GIVING US WISDOM TO GET BETTER?

[@vassilidenaxas2236]

Great podcast. Thank you. Please keep them coming. Dorian

[@DorianYatesNutrition]

Thank you! Will do!

[@jdgeibe]

Just finished this episode and wow! Very informative and enlightening. Very interesting information on the hypertension and having your homocystine levels checked and how TMG could help lower blood pressure.🧐👍🏼👍🏼

[@HealthandHIT]

Can't wait for this!

[@glasgowtravellers8729]

[@vivificateurveridique1420]

Albert "Al" Beckles is still alive and his is 93 years old. What a longevity! Is someone from the news generation of bodybuilder is going to live until 80 years old? Hey, man, what do you think???

[@Mr.Creosote15]

No longer a mass monster but still a badass!

[@decabeatzHealthWellness]

Dorian my favorite bodybuilder 💪 Great interview. Gary is 38:58 amazing right. I found him a couple years ago through Dana White. Look forward to to the next Shadow Talk episode 😁

[@williamhinerman9469]

AWESOME INFO!! 👍

[@DorianYatesNutrition]

Glad you think so!

[@fitnesswithkeith2578]

great podcast, Dorian l was asking Lee Priest if he would he go on your podcast and he said He would love to go on your podcast

[@matthewalegre3444]

Soooo good! 🙏🏽

[@jdgeibe]

Excellent podcast so far. I am about 25 minutes into the podcast and definitely enjoying it. There was one very good oil that Gary forgot to mention and that is macadamia nut oil. In my opinion it is the best healthy oil there is. Better than olive oil, and has a higher smoke point which makes it ideal for cooking. Also more monounsaturated fat in it than olive oil. Another unknown fact is that a lot of olive oil, that you see in grocery stores, it’s not actually pure virgin olive oil, but rather a blend and it is not mentioned on the bottle 😳😳 I use macadamia nut oil to make my eggs when cooking on stovetop and when I cook my chicken breast in the oven. Much better alternative to cooking spray or highly processed canola or other seed oils 😊👌🏼💯💯💯💯

[@justaguy5345]

This was very insightful. Glad I listened

[@richardcook2970]

Brilliant

[@tomcrudgington9666]

This is definitely the best interview with Breka I’ve watched. I find the straight questioning from Dorian excellent. Thank you. Also having seen my own bloods improve massively from making changes based on my own methylation results this is all very relatable.

[@iconicclips1289]

incredible podcast as always! just a thought maybe you could add queue points on the video which tell you the topic discussed so you can find the information you need quickly?

[@ash6415]

This channel is awesome.

[@conorvincent]

Love the podcast, get some more bodybuilders on and some mind/spiritual ones as well! All the best!

[@Lonewolf__666]

Get Tom Campbell MBT Theory for the spiritual Dorian.

[@capcomfan82]

I dont believe the term it runs in the family that strongly, certainly for some it is obviously. I believe since we all grow together with our family odds are we have the same lifestyle characteristics which leads to the same outcomes.

[@Purplereign3121]

Another awesome podcast. Can't wait for the next one. Thank you very much 💪

[@richardeddison3873]

Fantastic and very informative 👍

[@KaneK]

Proof that it truly is all a game....Peace

[@oliverposniak1254]

Thanks again👍👍👍

[@adamcooper8463]

This is amazing! What an informative episode and totally different to all the others out there. Anyone know if they do that test in the uk?

[@sturdygirl75]

Incredible guest, thanks Dorian. Absolutely loving your podcast ❤

[@nocapitals9833]

love this podcast, sharing out this video. did the supplements help you dorian?

[@DorianYatesNutrition]

It is important to know what your body is lacking off, then the supplementing will help you.

[@nocapitals9833]

i understand. i was just curious how you"re doing since you had gary help you. i'm thinking of using his service, i just need to save money.@@DorianYatesNutrition

[@cdog2145]

Good stuff dorian

[@alcito101]

Podcasts hosted by Dorian Yates could become THE podcasts for bodybuilders who care about the why and how of what they do (i.e., the science) -- even for people who just want to live well, given the aspects of science progress we can now enjoy... On a lighter note, Dorian, if you read this, could you write somewhere your list of watches? :) I'm always wrist-checking you, since you obviously have a taste for them 😎

[@caveiraboston]

Mr Dorian Yates i would like to thank you so much for your time and help providing all these awesome contents bringing light and priceless knowledge to all of us. You are special human being. Keep up the amazing work wich is highly appreciated. God bless you. Much Respect and much love 🇧🇷🇺🇲👏👏👏👏🙌👊💀 Caveira Boston

[@theironforce3000]

Excellent episode! I hope more of the 'gym bros' can give this a listen and take into consideration the life extension tips here . Many of these points apply to the gen pop audince. Particularly the last segment of the interview. How western society is extremely under-muscled and domesticized due to the circumstances of a fast n busy life. As a PT for most of the middle age population, I've seen this first hand year after year. From West Coast to East Coast. International and domestic. It's the same all around: High junk food intake with very low physical activity across the week. The ideal balance would be the opposite of that. Great episode once again, DY! Keep these coming 👊

[@vladimirtiunov8254]

Dorian, could you have a chat with Jerry Brainum? Thank you

[@jimk.905]

Hi Mr. Yates. Great interview! What would you advise a beginner 37 years old skinny fat male about training? I am frustrated with all information out there. I am training for two months now and I am overthinking about my training.

[@Shadow777-v3g]

I'm the hugest fan in the planet of Mr olympia Dorian yates

[@Bmphotog]

Dorian, Ive always felt you as authentic & no bullshit - please if you would, do a vid down the road on if the supplementing for deficiencies ( identified by the gene test) really further optimized your health in a meaningful way. Im on the cusp of doing the same, but its not cheap - not looking to throw away a couple thousand dollars. But Gary is very convincing.

[@rasinthaanjana16]

Its ok to push pull legs with high intensity?

[@DenisUspeshny]

Dorian is doing full director mode

[@rohitgeorge8879]

Sir, will be good to add timestamps too -'easy to navigate through .. thank you

[@maijab]

Fascinating. Can make more informed decisions.

[@Marked__One]

Thanks for these Dorian. Bigups from grey, dismal Essex lol 😂😂😂

[@outdoorsman9384]

Hay Dorian, do think Monday back , shoulders , and biceps tues legs chest and triceps off wed then repeat Thursday and Friday would be a good workout for a 60 year old, or do you recommend just your 4 day a week split hit routine would be better for recovery, thank you

[@DorianYatesNutrition]

Given my experience and approach to bodybuilding, I would lean more towards recommending a 4-day-a-week split HIT (High-Intensity Training) routine, especially for someone in their 60s. The reason is simple: HIT focuses on maximum effort for a shorter duration, which not only is effective for muscle growth and strength gains but also allows for more recovery time, crucial at your age. This approach can help mitigate the risk of overtraining and injuries, which become more of a concern as we get older.

[@outdoorsman9384]

Thanks Dorian I subscribed, I like how you help us out here in the common world👊

[@bcboxingchris]

Something that is very cheap equipment is resistance bands you can get a great workout with them

[@LexA-zn6bv]

💪🏼💪🏼

[@shahab4804]

hi. as i watched in blood and guts videos, dorian did 4 exercises for chest, 3 for bicep, 3 triceps, 4 lats, 3 hamstring, 2 rear delt. but when he trains others, it's a little bit lower volume. just 3 exercises for chest, 2 for bicep, 2 triceps, 3 lats, 2 hamstring, 1 rear delt for example. which one did he do? which one should i do? doing the lower volume, am i hitting each muscle with different angles enough?

[@heartoflion888]

Love the podcast dorian!, you should ahve paulsaladinoMD on !

[@HOMEGYMRATS]

Maybe a dumb question but is it really possible to absorb transdermal magnesium over the skin? I mean if minerais could really reach the bloodstream wouldn't we all die from mineral overdose when we're swimming in salt water?

[@Camcolito]

You know why we're good at crisis medicine and bad at keeping people healthy right? Because there is far less money in the latter.

[@kentborges5114]

Good performance results can be achieved with proper Vita-Nutrient solutions !

[@michaelvodinelich4392]

This guy's vitamin is ok I think source naturals is better. He's so preachy about methylated vitamins but his B12 form is hydroxocobalamin not methylcobalamin🤔good info on the genetics tho. Much love Dorian you the man💪

[@vivificateurveridique1420]

Why you erase my messages. Fans can expresse theirself without having the same point of view as you. Johnnie Morant passed away.

[@trekworldracing9787]

@DorianYatesNutrition Dorian..what's your opinion on this 'Dolci Diet' guy calling Gary a 'scammer'?

[@Scion15]

He's correct. Gary is a quack charlatan.

[@geigerjan]

49:02 avoid green tea and what? I can't hear what he's saying

[@jeremiahfranz4471]

Has anyone taken THG to lower blood pressure and experienced any significant results?

♥️♥️♥️ from Germany.

[@johnmadden6065]

Wonder how i wud get checked for the gene that helps with sleep im same as dorian cant swtich my brain off

[@michaelbland2038]

Can someone please tell me what was the blood test called that Dorian had in this podcast ?

[@piedpiper1344]

if u Just take supplements vs, take for deficiency...wouldn't the same result happen?

[@tomsharkey243]

I'd be very interesting in hearing Dorian experience trying DNA hacks, dis it help with sleep, reflux etc

[@TheArtistJackie]

These health and longevity people never look younger, he's 53, and looks 53 .
