Peter Attia MD: Improving Health and Aging Better Through Exercise

[@andrewnath9726]

I like how Peter flipped the script and interviewed Dorian.

[@andypicken7848]

andrewnath9726 Yes, I noticed that also, Peter was more in the driving seat than Dorean. Although it was unplanned it made for interesting viewing

[@BodyOpt]

1. Peter is genuinely curious and respects Dorian’s experience 2. Dorian is as humble a bodybuilder as one could ever hope to come across.

[@andrewnath9726]

@@BodyOpt exactly love the respect. Peter is great and Dorian is a legend

[@lukepitt233]

Dorian Yates 6X Mr Olympia and some how he can make you feel like he’s speaking to you on the same level. No ego, A free spirit of wisdom. Thank you DY

[@strong2923]

When Dorian Yates speaks, I listen.

[@capcomfan82]

Peter is a great guest he actually says what he believes unlike most

[@TripleGAutoDetailing]

What an EPIC interview. I started Bodybuilding in the 80's and now as a 55 year old focusing on overall health, this discussion was so relevant. 👍👍

[@nickgreek6449]

SAME here..Started in 1984 at age of 15 . 55 now and still lifting. Healthier and younger looking than most of my buddies of the same age.

[@FinanceCobra]

This was awesome. Dorian seems really humble despite his expertise. You can tell he's really listening and trying to learn from Peter, which at 62 years old with a few lifetimes worth of accomplishments is remarkable.

[@Answeriz42]

What I like most about this is how back and fourth the conversation is instead of a standard interview. Peter’s is genuinely curious and has immense respect for Dorian, and Dorian has just as much respect for Peter. They are from completely different worlds but mentally on the same page and continue to learn from eachother. Would be great to see him on peters podcast too.

[@Randomstuff-q9p]

We need more podcasts with Dorian Yates!! He is a legend and immense source of trustworthy bodybuilding information.

[@tsgosser]

I could listen to peter all day. great guest Dorian.

[@jaydrury9864]

Legend of a man right there, Dorian is a very knowledgeable, intelligent, respectable & honest man, through his own learning & personal experiences he's more than happy to open up & speak truthfully & pass on his knowledge to others, unlike most bodybuilders who won't tell it like it is & tend to keep things a secret... 🙌🙌 Always a champion 🏆🥇💪

[@shtefanoo]

This was long overdue. Thank you Peter & Dorian. Greetings from Romania.

[@stathispanagoulakos4429]

Congratulations for this discussion. Dorian, your way of thinking is that is remarkable, that's the less obvious than the bodybuilder career accomplishments. Not simply knowledgeable, but philosophical. Great inspiration as it is difficult to accept that, as we are aging, we can't sustain the "looks" neither can we train the same way as we did 30 years ago. If Dorian could accept this reality, I ask myself who am I to not accept it. Again, it is all about straightforward clear thinking and being more strong mentally. Embrace the life cycle, that's easier said than done when it applies on oneself.

[@robbietotten3130]

This gentleman is a legend would love to chat with the man him self

[@michaelweinstein8539]

EPIC! I have been in the gym for over 50 years and still go daily doing my 1 muscle group and taking my whey/creatine shake. Fitness is indeed a lifestyle and you will always take out what you put in...as long as there is a balance. Thanks Dorian and keep making a difference!!

[@Sangoma_Shaman]

Thank you guys for this informative podcast. I enjoyed it very much.

[@jjr8220]

Peter asked can anyone train like this every session. The answer is yes. I use machines and go all out to failure every set. I have been doing this style for 42 years and it’s the best method. People just don’t want to put in the effort nowadays. Looking for the easy way.

[@willashwood7803]

Looking forward to seeing this podcast blow up. Already one of my favorites. Thanks Dorian!!

Such a good discussion! Thankyou. Medicine 3.0 has enabled me to make each day count rather than count the days I have left. I suspect that you and Gal may be mindful of this. So cool for Dr Attia to have a discussion with one of his heroes! Notice his energy level as he is able to share what he's worked hard to study. This level of interaction is so valuable.

[@nickavita537]

I Totally Agree with the lack of Nutrition Training for US Physicians . I did a Fellowship in Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism and I think I had a one lecture in Nutrition which was less than 2 hours.

[@DoctorMihail]

This is amazing!

[@DorianYatesNutrition]

Much appreciated- keep up the great work yourself 🙏

[@martinlowgren]

How awesome. I good doctor and worlds best bodybuilder having an open dialog about this - WOW ❤🎉😊

[@BodyOpt]

By far, of the pro bodybuilders, Dorian has consistently demonstrated that he is the most intelligent and thoughtful among them. A few years ago I tried to compile a book, and I ended up recording so many quotes from Dorian. However, I still have many reservations about the one set to failure method, and it is a huge topic to discuss. Just a few considerations: how many people have that intense mindset that will allow them to endure the discomfort while retaining right form? How many people are able to recruit enough motor units in one set, even after years of experience? Neurally, individuals like Yates are by definition outliers. Are geriatrics also supposed to stick to one set to failure?! And in my view, nobody anywhere really does one set to failure. As far as a muscle is concerned, it doesn’t know whether the resistance is coming from a bench press, a machine press, or a dumbbell fly. So my point is, as soon as you are doing multiple exercises for the same muscle, you are already doing multiple sets…in reality, it is NOT one set to failure methodology. Eg. Body does one set on the leg extension only, and then moves onto the hamstrings! Food for thought I hope.

[@rdallas81]

Very nice comment. I personally thank you for taking time to purvey your gratitude and understanding if DY. It's nice to read comments like this.

[@ganirintiniano]

two greats ...

[@fleshmotorcycle94]

Would like to know how well this type of exercise routine works with naturals. Seems every time I see someone promote low frequency heavy duty, it's either a pro like Dorian Yates or someone I suspect of roiding. I just believe heavy duty and steroids go together, physically and mentally.

[@Jdac333]

Kevin Richardson, Mr America Hart, Tom Kiatipis, Rob Hope and many more. All using HIT principles

[@Cormac-jd2kx]

Fact

[@Jdac333]

John heart? Tom kiatipis? Kevin Richardson? Rob Hope? All use HIT principles and have been Natural.

[@evanwood6796]

Low volume training is actually the best for naturals because steroids pure purpose is to make you recover faster so if you do low volume you will not overtrain like you would in high volume as a natural

[@DorianYatesNutrition]

Heavy-duty, low-frequency training can definitely work for naturals, but it needs careful management. The key is intensity and recovery-without gear, your body needs more time to recover between sessions. For naturals, it's all about finding the right balance, ensuring you're not overtraining, and adjusting volume or frequency if needed. It’s a mentally challenging approach, but with proper nutrition, rest, and smart training, you can see solid gains without steroids.

[@MegaHectorini]

I will watch this for sure

Love it The interview, turn upside down Dr Atia was the interviewer Great episode Dorian

[@mattarndt4452]

I want to bulk. I’m 53 and I feel like I have the greatest knowledge that I’ve ever had in terms of my training and nutrition. I enjoy having and building muscle! Yes, I’m on TRT, so I’m really able to dial everything in. I have all the ingredients to grow. I’m not trying to be a Masters bodybuilder, but I do compete in Classic physique for the NPC occasionally. It’s not enough for me to just be active. I actually enjoy somewhat high intensity training.

[@GregGlaeser-j4u]

What is very interesting to me in my training history is for some reason. I was drawn to a man, Frank Calta and his training routine called rotation for recuperation, which is not 100% the same obviously as Arthur Jones and Mike Mentzer But for his time gave more time for recovery

[@DorianYatesNutrition]

It’s great to see how these different systems all circle back to the importance of recovery in building strength and muscle. Sounds like you’ve found a method that really works for you!

[@GoGoGadgetGiveadamn]

Unfortuntely the most important question went unanswered. At 51:45 when you asked about how to do all this training (cardio, weight lifting, etc.) considering how much time it takes, the conversation unfortunately went away from that and just discussed cardio.

6:04 "we rarely live above 40" is just not true. Look how much lived people in Old Rome or Old Greece. Yes, people died because of lack of medicine but not such often. Just read biography of all famous people and you will find out that 80 or 90 year long lifespan is not rare. Today is.

[@chefgoldblum1450]

You're correct that people did live past 40 and into their 70s. But the poorer classes did not on average.

Please, clarify if it is twice or once a week/muscle group on a 2 day On/2 day Off a week routine is your recommendation. I really would like to see your recommended training split and routine for the All your major muscle groups twice a week in 45 minutes routine. Body Building is awfully harmful to your whole body. Moreover, it absolutely makes no sense as you lose all the oversized muscle when you are off gear.

[@DorianYatesNutrition]

Bodybuilding can be intense, but when done smartly, it doesn’t have to be harmful. Focus on balanced, natural training-lift with good form, prioritize recovery, and eat well. Consistency and proper rest will lead to sustainable, long-term muscle gains without the extremes. It's about building a strong, healthy body that lasts.
