Dorian YatesDorian Yates stated he used more drugs in his offseason as opposed to pre-contest.
He concluded that it made the most sense to use the most drugs when he's trying in a calorie surplus trying to gain muscle.
After listening to the entire interview, at the peak of Dorian Yates' steroid cycle dosages pre-contest, he claims his use broke down to the following:
Testosterone – 1000 mg per week
Deca (Nandrolone Decanoate) – 500 mg per week
Dianabol (Dbol) – 40 to 50 mg per day
GH – 2 to 4 IU per day
As far as insulin, Dorian claimed insulin was part of his protocol later in his career.
However, he saw the effects it had on his body composition as a net negative, as he sacrificed dry grainy detail in the muscle for a smoother more bloated look that came with the size gained with insulin.
Yeah BuddyAfter listening to the entire interview, at the peak of Ronnie Coleman's steroid cycle dosages pre-contest, he claims his use broke down to the following:
Testex (concentration of 250 mg/mL) – 750 mg per week split into one 250 mg injection three times per week
Primobolan (concentration of 100 mg/mL) – 300 mg per week split into one 100 mg injection three times per week

Testosterone Heptylate (concentration of 250 mg/mL) – 500 mg per week split into one 250 mg injection twice per week
Primobolan, Dbol or Anadrol tablets – Roughly 25-100 mg per day depending on the oral steroid chosen
Human Growth Hormone (HGH) – 4 IU per day
Humulin R Insulin – 30 IU split into two 15 IU injections only for the carb up phase before a competition
Lee PriestThis is the one that everyone thinks is bullshit because of how conservative his usage was.
Notably, Lee Priest was one of the only top IFBB pros in the 90s (if not the only) to do a completely transparent interview during the prime of his career where the video could severely impact his placements.
After listening to the entire interview, at the peak of Lee Priest's steroid cycle dosages pre-contest, he claims his use broke down to the following:

Anadrol tablets – 50 mg per day
Human Growth Hormone (HGH) – 2 IU per day

Dennis NewmanAfter listening to the entire interview, at the peak of Dennis Newman's steroid cycle dosages pre-contest, he claims his use broke down to the following:
Testosterone Cypionate – 200 mg twice a week = 400 mg/week
Sustanon – 250 mg twice a week = 500 mg/week
Testosterone Enanthate – 200 mg twice a week = 400 mg/week
Anavar – 25-30 mg a day
Parabolan – Two 76 mg Parabolan amps per week = 152 mg/week
Primobolan – 1 shot every 3 days = 200 mg/week
Winstrol – 50 mg a day = 350 mg/week
Halotestin – Used pre-contest, the dosage was not disclosed. My educated guess is that he probably used between 20-40 mg per day for the last 2-3 weeks of his contest prep.
Growth Hormone – Tried it twice with a dosage as high as 4 IU per day
Insulin – Tried a couple IU as an experiment but didn't want to increase the dosage
Keep in mind, Dennis Newman had a very short-lived career, and this may not be indicative of what he would have gone on to use had his career not been cut short.
