Bullshit that Dorian didn't have 20" arms.

Bullshit that Dorian didn't have 20" arms.



At times in his career his arms looked small and at times they looked massive

Dorian was a joke.  Look at his vericose veins and crappy skin and acne ridden pock face.  He looked like shit his entire career and one of the most overrated BBers ever.  He was a walking drug lab.

He has perfectly clear skin in these shots. He has a fair complexion though and the fluorescent gym lights will wash him out bad. Same thing as Dennis Wolf. if these guys were tanned they'd look a lot better.

he may not stretch the tape the way some syntholers do, but he filled out his arms more than anyone has.

This looks like it was shot right after his return to the UK from the night of champions in 1990.

Surprising how few people realize he had his ears pinned back between 1992 and 1993 Olympias.

The only thing I can tell is you're just another TOOL trying to sound like he knows something by parroting GH15.

Are you sure it wasn't between the 1991 and 1992 Olympias? The first time I noticed his ears looked different was in the b&w pics of him being coached by Mike Mentzer (Flex magazine circa April 1992).

Yeah maybe, I didn't notice them until he had the shorter haircut in 1993 though.

Never seen those pics before - arms look small and the physique looks almost attainable considering he was a pro at the time. Wonder who the guy is spotting him?

Blood&guts was a joke, I laugh every time I see someone referring to Yates as the most hardcore bodybuilder ever. Because he did one set to failure and beyond? Big deal! Before him there were guys doing countless sets to failure and beyond. Or was it because there was a guy yelling at him, and he filmed his video in black&white? Or possibly the visualization techniques?

Of the current day pro's a Markus Rühl (to name just one) trains at least as hard and heavier as well.

Tom Platz did things when training legs that would make most guys puke. Very intense anaerobic exercise.

flex, dillet, vince taylor, etc were known for not being hardcore in the gym, yet they developed very impressive physiques

judges dont ask for gym report cards to see how hard you train, they judge on whats on a stage before them in a sparkly thong (no homo)

I've seen matarazzo clips where you wonder wtf, how did he grow training like that? all partial reps of isolation exercises done with poor form, little intensity..

Pretty much. Lol at people getting all indignant about training intensity, the whole sport is facilitated by huge drugs abuse. It doesnt matter how you train, it makes zero difference.

i remember he was hyped as being the next big thing,,, what ever happend to him?


i love how these jokers try and knock dorians work rate... as all  they basically do now is play with the weights and rely totaly on slin, gh and seos....


yates was a monk, trained and ate propperly all year round, and if cormier took his offer up to train all yr with him in england it would have showed what a difference consistent hard work can make

This....the drugs do EVERYTHING.

I haven't worked out in 10 days, been super busy......and i look and feel exactly the same, don't feel soft, small....anything like i would if i took time off naturally
