"You're not gonna die. And if you do you won't know about it so it's all good." Dorian cracks me up. These videos with him are top notch Mike. Cheers!

I’m obsessed with Dorian’s training style. It’s good to see him comfortable in front the camera now he’s worked with Mike a few times. The chemistry is coming through. Unreal video. Best one yet?

[@___whateverr]

that's that high intensity training , real hard quality sets to failure no junk volume , that's how champions are created

[@Think_Carefully_Please]

I think this is the best video I have ever seen with Dorian training someone. He pushed Mike harder than anyone I’ve ever seen by far.

[@CharlieMarshall1997]

@@Think_Carefully_Please man agreed. Such a good video

[@willthomas7666]

I think that style of training could be very effective for ppl,but the problem or set back for some is that ur likely going to have to keep a log book and beat numbers eveytime u go to the gym,and it also requires a high level of concentration and focus that can be hard to duplicate for 90% of ppl day in nd day out,and most ppl ould likely find it unenjoyable to train that way,alot of it is conditioning ur mind to laser focus concentration and almost a zen like mind control when ur going all out,it's very hard to do for most ppl

[@willthomas7666]

I think most ppl would have to do that style with a training partner to hold them accountable and to push them to break numbers every season or at least for a while until they've adapted the mental Side of it,it's intense

I like Dorian. He's a badass and no false modesty either. "I have nothing to prove. I'm already 6 times Mr. Olympia." That you are, big man, that you are. 👍

[@onthemicwithmike6339]

@Mr Smith Dorian didn’t actually squat. He had a back injury so his compound leg exercises of choice were leg press and hack squat. So it is possible to develop great legs without squatting

[@dj_m1999]

@@onthemicwithmike6339 Dorian didn't have a back injury, he had a hip injury, when he's not taned up you can see a big scar on his right upper leg

[@StatingTheObvio]

Really felt Dorian was talking to the audience in this one. He was so on it with this leg session and enthusiastic for Mikes pain in a good way. Some great advice and tips for anyone wanting to destroy body parts.

[@rachelfitnesss]

Watching dorian his workouts just shows that im not even training hard enough 🤣 but its definitely inspiring to push harder 😤🔥

[@djterror7936]

Hi guys, do you know how many per week you can train like this?

[@roanvanstraten]

@@djterror7936 if you really push this hard to failure, best to do each muscle group once per week. The recovery takes way longer if you push this hard

[@user-mg7eu6jk6k]

Damn... I just bought a new TV and this is practically the first video I'm watching.. I was thinking "sh*t either this video's audio is crap or this TV's sound system is crap". Thank you for making it clear for me, hahaha

[@davidscalpscrypto9053]

Been following Mike for years now because whenever he works out, he shares very useful nuggets here and there that I incorporate. His physique is his proof. But hearing Dorian Yates teach him like he’s a young lion made me realize - there are levels to this. Kudos to the both of you Mike and Dorian.

[@Bahamut3525]

@Mr Smith The industry has always been full of snake oil merchants too. Only the guys who put in the work like Dorian actually aren't full of S.

[@willthomas7666]

Yes,when your at that level your aware of anything that can make a difference and the way he did it without a coach he knows his body and what to do in and out of the gym over years and years down to a science, i would listen. To guys like this over reading textbooks/articles any day of the week,bc they've been there an done it,when ur at that elite of a level every little thing matters he knows what he's doing

[@B11AWAIS]

Learn two very valuable tips from this video, one of my fav videos by uncle Mike

[@DecodingHistory.]

you're never gonna look like that naturally no matter how hard u train.

[@ScottishTurkey538]

You could argue Mike has more knowledge, and was just taking the role for the camera

[@Think_Carefully_Please]

Mike asks Dorian better questions than 99% of the interviews I’ve watched with Dorian. Mike goes in there with no ego and just tries to soak in as much knowledge as he can from a living legend.

[@sovereignruler]

Dorian is incredible with his knowledge. That's why he's 6X Mr. Olympia!

[@MrJonnyl123]

Dorian says ‘two more’ mikes like thank god but then Dorian makes him do six more 😂😂

[@johnwalkowiak2002]

Im an old 80's and 90's gym rat. Remember when Dorian was blowing up on the scene and guest posing over 300lbs. He was mind blowing!!! Thx for the video so nice seeing the younger generation working out with the older generation. Much respect for this video and great imagination putting this together.

[@Dunky09]

Me too. I remember looking through the Stop Press section of my new Muscle & Co mag and reading “Remember the name Dorian Yates. You read it here first!” Amazing that that young lad went on to be a 6-time Olympia legend!

[@Tesik008]

Thank you Mike for bringing this on youtube. Amazing motivation and education from you for years.

[@cinematicsounds]

Yes, I agree!!

[@kakarot8450]

Despite all his success and popularity, Mike is still humble enough to be corrected and given advice by Dorian on camera. Much respect Mike.

I mean its dorian, former mass monster

[@samueladams5243]

this shit was real as hell, props to mike. there was a few times you could see a look of vulnerability like we wanted to stop but kept pushing through. 👏 well done brother

[@sezoism]

i noticed this too!

[@victormatthew]

lmao Dorian on the last leg press set.. "you wanna grab that other side there mate". meanwhile Mike is about to be crushed by the weight 😂

[@craigb9339]

Brilliant 😂😂

[@johanybotero]

Dorian and the cameraman 👀👀 haha

[@opinionatedape5895]

He could have peeled off some plates

[@Bahamut3525]

In this situation Mike has to grab the side lever. As the spotter is completely unable to lift the leg press weight up in that position by himself. If Mike had forgotten this, he might have gotten crushed until people come and push on both sides. This is why I fcking hate machines. Very scary situations.

[@F-Tier_Physique]

@@Bahamut3525 Wdym, just lower the weight. The legpress wont come down and crush you, theres usually 1 or 2 heights where the handles will stop the weight and a bottom position which is way too high to crush someone who isnt 220 cms tall. Most legpresses even have the bottom stop almost too high to get the proper stretch for me as some1 who is 185 cms tall.

[@KOOLEE88]

DORIAN!!!! Hell yeah, always appreciate knowledge from the greats!!!!!

[@BB1987-]

Mike...love all your travel vlog vids...but for pure gym/training purposes and information, this was the best video you've done and one of the best I've seen on youtube. Dorain Yates just says it like it is. No filter. No BS. Phenomenal session and I've learnt a hell of a lot.

[@ApostolosKatsioulas]

Mike said "I'm ready to rock" and Dorian smiled on the inside haha. I've said on the part 2, I really appreciate Dorian's and Jay's approach towards training and nutrition especially after all they've put themselves through the years and they do look healthy after all. Rocky said " one step, one punch, one round" , Dorian " one squeeze, one rep, one set " :).
