Tough question!

When it comes to proper form and use of intensity techniques, Dorian owns.

Ronnie just trains like a pure freak of nature. But he's more of a weight thrower than a weight lifter.

Ronnie does look like shit.

He has no aesthetic appeal whatsoever.

They should create a seperate league for him and Kovaks to compete in.

Cutler has a great shoulder to waste ratio. His taper is fine. I would say he is definitely proportionate. Ronnie is not.

Ronnie looks like a mutant toad in these picks.

He should have slowed down with the GH.

I'm sure he doesn't have a say in it though. His handlers work that out for him.

if you want to build muscle for most of your career, pick Ronnie.

If you want to tear major muscles early on, pick Dorian.
Title: Re: Ronnie versus Dorian training???
Post by: cheeksmaliod on December 16, 2006, 10:31:43 AM
Neither, both are well past me.  Dorian trained balls to the walls everyday and pulled more muscles than I thought the human body had.  ROnnie is probaly the luckiest guy in the world for not injuring himself for his 8 wins.  In all honesty if I trained like Ronnie I would expect someone to come up to me and say excuse me you're being a moron stop throwing that weight around.  Jays workouts are way to long.  My approch though is like his lighter weights with good form then heavy when I feel really good.  Ronnie had the best X frame though and this year coming up hes going to win again.  I mean c'mon his only flaw is his abs.  People say his calves but in reality there huge what did that flex article say saying ronnies calves are small are like Louisana is small well when you put it right next to Texas of course it is.  His quads are just that big that his calves well always look small in comparison.

I think he bounces on squats but he keeps tension on the muscles.  I think if he lifted as strict as Dorian he would be even in strength for the most part.

He does use good form for those exercises.  he does bounce on the deadlift though, but whatever works.  Stronger than Dorian no way man.  Dorian did 405 incline right down to the chest for 6 perfect reps.  He uses perfect form on every exercise and there is a huge difference between that and just getting the weight from point a to b.  Ronnie is very strong but lightyears ahead of Dorian?

Sorry to burst the fantasy but you still have this:

  What a crock of shit. The only reason why Ronnie used geater weights is because he maxed out with singles and doubles, something that Dorian never did. Now Ronnie was stronge in the deadlift and squat, but that was about it. Peter McGough has stated repeatedly that the reason for why Dorian used the weights he did is because he was obsessed with super-strict reps and a full range of motion. If Dorian wanted, he could have used much greater weights.

  Besides, even with his super-strict training style and full ange of motion, Dorian still used some pretty fucking heavy weights! How about bent over barbell rows with five plates as side for 6 reps without cheating? Or one arm dumbbell rows with 200 lbs dumbbells fo reps? Or stiff-legged deadlift with six plates a side, again for reps? Look at Dorian executing incline barbell bench press, and he used 400 lbs for 8 super-strict reps. Observe that, at each rep, the bar would touch hois chest and he would get a full stretch every single time. Now compare this to Ronnie doingt the incline press, where he cheats after doing 3 reps or so. Completely different appoaches to stressing the muscles. Ronnie is stonger in the core execises, granted, but the diffeence overrall is not that great, with Dorian actually being stronger at some exercises.

  The sdame large frames that allows one to be so strong make one a terrible bodybuilder. Look at Shawn, whi is dwarfed by Kovacs in size and strengh, and yet is a much bette bodybuilder, with longer muscle bellies, smaller joints, etc. None of the really, really stong guys could be a successful pro because of their large frames. Kovacs never made it is a pro, and Shawn finished in the top five at the Mr.Olympia a dozen times. ;)

it depends on the person.

by dorian and ronnie had tremendous success using both their styles.

dorian got injured, but so has just about every HIT guy (tommi t. marko from finland, etc.).

not many people could handle dorian's style - maximum intensity.

not many people could do coleman's split - 6 days a week.

during both their reigns as mr. olympia, both were recognized as the hardest trainers among their competitors.

jay cutler uses even better form with moderate weights.at times he goes higher but he has no need to look like a train wreck.high volume rulz.jay cutler does not compramise on the intensity too.he lifts with all his might.yates although had alot of torn muscles but dorians dry condition covered his torn muscles.even with torn muscles his condition never took a back seat.in ronnies case his torn muscles look worse and because of his soft condition it looks 10 times worse than dorians torn muscles or any bodybuilders torn muscles

Don't think any one routine is better or not - you guys kill me do you accually think Dorian or Ronnie trained the same style year round. They swapped training styles all the time (but never as drastic as switching to something like DoggCrapp though). Their routines are pretty similar Ronnie uses more reps. As to who looks the best, well that's a matter of opinion so only a fool would debate that - as to who's the best competitive bodybuilder well the records speak for themselves ;D
BTW just look at this uncontrolled terrible form - anyone could to that if they just "threw" the weight around like he's doing http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iGm1rcSqKgU (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iGm1rcSqKgU) Yeah buddy!!!!

jay trains hard, but i think a tad less than yates and ronnie. 

he doesnt go all out with the weight (even for 8-10 reps), so how can you say he trains as hard?

his form is nowhere near yates' form. 

yates has the best form i've seen among pros, others include priest and markus.

also, jay doesnt have the hard look that dorian had and to a lesser extent ronnie had.

i think that has something to with max poundages, whehter it be with low reps like dorian or higher reps like ronnie.

moderated poundages seems contradictory to maximum intensity.

how can it be maximum intensity/effort if the weight isnt the max - the max for 10 reps.

i would say jay uses moderate poundages and high intensity.

i dont want to make it seem that jay doesnt train hard - he certainly does.  he says he doesnt rest too long between sets with high volume and heavy weights is hard to do.

well ronnie is also alot older than jay.  I think you have to be superhuman to train like ronnie for as long as he did and not get hurt, it's like he was a freak of nature or something.  I don't think anybody could really keep up with him if he trained the way it's described on his vids and in the mags.

well ronnie is also alot older than jay.  I think you have to be superhuman to train like ronnie for as long as he did and not get hurt, it's like he was a freak of nature or something.  I don't think anybody could really keep up with him if he trained the way it's described on his vids and in the mags.
I would never train like ronnie, even if it did get gains quicker. I like how Lee trains, his form is always perfect and after all these years hes had no serious injury and when you see him you can just tell his physique has great quality.

most guys can't train like ronnie, it's really not even an option for the average guy...you'd kill yourself.  The guy is a mutant.
