This clip is gary's best ever shape/appearance at the 1991 WBF show.
Gary has one of those weird shapes...
He looks great in any side pose like a side chest, side tricep etc
He also looks great in any hands in front pose or most muscular variation.
It's when he stands front on and does a lat spread or especially a front double bicep pose that he disappears.
Same with from behind... he never had a great lat spread or rear doubble bicep pose.
One reason is structural... He is basically a tall, narrow guy. He has very small hips for a man his height which makes his shoulder structure look very wide when it really isn't THAT wide.
One reason is laziness... He never, ever developed a decent amount of scapula flexibility which is critical to great front and rear shots...
Think Robby Robinson or tony pearson... those guys could spread it big time and it came from practice... yates really had good scapula flexibilty too for a big guy (ie. when he did a lat spread big things happened...)
Here is a vid of tony pearson... great lat spread for a small guy
