Dorian Yates - chest, back, delts, arms, and legs.

<< < (7/7)

Jona:
love his attitude on social media as well, such a humble guy just living the life and doing it right. Amazing competitor and cool to see him actually living well unlike a lot of champs who seem to develop so many issues while in their glory years.

Imo high intensity training is very dangerous for an enhanced bodybuilder, Dorian suffered many injuries from this kind of training
