Dorian Yates abs

Hulkster/Pumpster is frequently owned. His fawning, blinkered sexual love of Coleman is repulsive.

Great post !

the more I bodybuild, the more I appreciate Dorian's physique

I hated his physique before, now I think he looked awesome

That's how it is for most people, except Hulkster and co.

thats because dorian's physique is typical. great back, not as hot from the front. halfway there.

Ronnie's physique is from another planet! both sides!

Taking $10,000 home to the US, Ronnie was streets ahead of the track, as he was at the Olympia this year. It's really going to take a miracle to beat this guy and I can see him going on beating Dorian's Olympia achievements, at the very least.

of course, what ended up actually beating Ronnie was not a miracle, but father time.

dorian was certainly not the miracle physique that was necessary to beat Ronnie at this show.

and of course, he EASILY went on to beat dorian's olympia achiements. and won more contests than anyone and an Arnold Classic win too, something that dorian was never capable of doing.

I like both physique, I still think Ronnie would win between the 2 but Dorian has a unique look that I can also appreciate

it would take a miracle to beat him at his peak:

The fact that Dorian looks ripped and in very good shape ten years after retiring is the only evidence you need to understand that he is and will always be a great Bber. That's what Bbing should be "also" about, staying healthy, in shape even when you're out of the competitive field. Looke at guys like Labrada also. Still looks fuckin' healthy for his age. I wonder what Ronnie will look like only two years from now. I'm not really optimistic I must say. And BTW ,Nasser looks like shit nowadays which makes it clear that he's not in the same league as Dorian.

Great post. The reason I feel that Dorian is the greatest BBer of all-time is that if you took away steroids and all drugs, he would still be Mr. Olympia. Dorian had a unique understanding and intelligence concerning bodybuilding and what it took to be the best, hence him revolutionizing the sport in several ways. The same thing cannot be said about Coleman. For proof of this look no further than the fact that Coleman didn't take off until he got a drug guru in 1998. It's also not a secret that Coleman wouldn't pick up a weight for 3 months and would rely solely on the drugs to help tide him over. Regardless, Coleman was still a great champ, but #2 in my book.

I agree.  Dorian was pure mesomorph, 180 lbs and lean before ever touching a weight.  He also had great genetics for bodybuilding; naturally muscular calves, long legs, & narrow hips.  He would dominate in any federation, drug tested or not.  His logical approach to training revolutionized the way we all train.  Virtually no one trained each bodypart once per week before Dorian.  He won the Olympia doing it and now almost everyone trains with a similar frequency.

Looks like CigaretteMan and M8 pm'd each other to bump every old thread with "Dorian" in the title 

BigKnobs.......are you still into ugly chicks?

ok,he was a smart trainer and eating for his body coupled with knowlede of drugs to achieve his physique,to say coleman needed guru in 98 to be mr o thats a bit off,in 95/96 he began to get freaky big and was winning shows in 96/97,so his ducks were now in order,by 98 he must have stacked the right combo to morph his body from really good to great as dorian did in 93/94,cause dorian 91/92 pales in comparision by wide margin compared to 93 and up.
