Small biceps, smal triceps, small quads, big gut, narrow shoulders, shallow chest. He lucky the only other big guy was Nasser who had no back.

Dorian had exceptional bone structure, excellent proportions, legs slightly longer than his torso, the ability to maintain muscle mass while shredded, the best back of all time, incredible density, granular skin, an incredible work ethic, exceptional composure and confidence, even when diminished by injuries, and most importantly, the ability to not get sick or die from massive doses of steroids. These are extraordinary qualities that few individuals can muster.

Dorian 1993 can never be surpassed

x2.. yates had brutal, nodular, granular bone dry musculature.. popping off of a very good, structurally sound frame.

at his best - pre tear and tight waisted - he exemplified the rugged/masculine/powerful physique better than anyone.

His shape in 1993 is the peak of bodybuilding no other version of even himself came close to beating what he displayed that day.

one of the things Will Brink said back in the misc.fitness.weights group at the time was that due to his skin tone pictures didn't really do justice and that in person if you ever saw him at his peal his skin/condition was like (exact quote) "granite" - it just had to be seen to be believed.

Delusional thread. Yates was the freakiest bodybuilder ever up to that point.
