Honestly, how large do you think his upper arms would stretch out to with a measuring tape? :-[
-
And :'(
-
funny how some of the douchbags here talk about "where's his forearms" when they talk about bodybuilders... well, here's dorian yates, the freakiest, most dense white mrO we've ever had, his forearms are still there, but where's the rest of his arms? (yea, i'm aware of the bi and tri tears)... i'll take some not-so impressive forearms with 20" arms over 18" forearms and 17" upper arms.

Look at the first pic I posted in his blue shirt from 2012. His forearms are 10" there at best and biceps maybe squeeze out to 13".
-
He's retired and living the good life. We all know bodybuilding is all drugs, or are drugs the finishing touch??? Glad to see he's not playing the size game in retirement, seems like a lot of fellas don't fair too well when they try. :-X
-
Dorian should be glad just to be alive.
Imagine the amount of drugs that has been through his system.
Nasser and Momo approved.
-
I remember when I was a kid going to the video store walking down the sports aisle and looking at the Olympia VHS tapes. I was very young and knew nothing of bodybuilding but I do remember Dorian stood out from the rest, as well as Levrone.
Yes my schmoeing started at a young age. :-[
-
Those pics aren't that recent (well, maybe over a year ago) - he's a lot bigger than that at the moment.

People age... so will you. You can't take drugs forever. Dorian is doing the correct thing. Being healthy and small is better than being big and sick/dead.
There are a lot of morons on here. I'd estimate 50% of the people on this forum have an IQ less than 90... most of them are below the age of 30.

Hi Dorian
-
He has no reason to be "huge" anymore.
-
None of these photos are even recent, let alone from today. The layesy pics we saw, dude was pretty thick.
However, his arms are still messes.

he has to be spending hard on that dime piece honey

One thing is for damn sure, his arms are bigger than Nasser's are right now.

Agreed. These are the pics I was thinking of.
Dude is still a monster.
-
Yep.. That beach photo is more recent.. Looking pretty swollen still.. Livin the good life.. More power to him..
-
Dorian wasn't known for his biceps peaks really, compared to other bodybuilders. Plus, after not abusing gear any longer, you can see what happens.
Besides. Dorian must have other interest also these days.
-
It doesn't matter because in his prime he possessed one of the greatest physiques to roam the earth.
-
Imagine Branchs physique when he stops all the hardcore training too...
-
It looks like it's only his left arm that is so much smaller.
-
Might have been from all the injuries in the past to his arm.
-

Yes, no doubt.
That triceps tear must have been really severe.
-
His biceps always were high, which makes that first shot look even smaller and more odd.

True, he dont' give a shit about being big anymore he has paid his dues just enjoying life now.

Many Bodybuilding fans don't understand that when a bodybuilder retires, their physiques don't carry on with them. See Dorian, Ronnie, Arnold, etc...

I'll never disrespect a elder legend because of his age. It's gonna get all of us. What matters is what he or she looked like at in their prime.

Good post, Howard Huges was a billionaire where did he end up same place we all will.
-

Yah, but Nasser is shredded..
-
Dorian's arms today are no different than in 2012. He's just wearing a t-shirt that is hiding his upper arm. His left arm has a torn bicep and tricep and he never got it repaired.

He still trains with the tear?
???

and bi's
-
recall thought that this disproportionate decline in arm size started way back in 1996:
before he stopped competing, the arm atrophy had begun thanks to the tears.

I believe that tri tear occurred in 97.
-

I don't disagree that his arms look small compared to the average pro-bodybuilder, but I think your visual measurements are off by quite a bit unless he is a very small man, which he isn't.
-
I believe that tri tear occurred in 97.
In his last Olympia his tricep was hanging on by a thread, he tore it a week or so before the show and should have had it immediately repaired.
he went through his posing routine thinking it could come off completely at any time.
-
Fact is, when you push "things" as far as these guys do, you have to expect to pay the price, somewhere down the line. Dorian did all he thought he needed to to become the world's best, and now Mother Nature is collecting payment.
Most every contemporary (say, the last 20 years) high-level bodybuilder eventually suffers Disappearing Triceps Syndrome (I came up with that a few years ago), and when you couple this with Yates' injuries, etc., it's obvious why his upper arms are so trashed.
The man is a legend and a nice dude. I sat with him a few years ago for lunch in Toronto and, yeah, he's, overall, still a large man, but his upper arms are withered and destroyed. But at this point, what does he have to prove? He did what was necessary and reaped the rewards. Now his bodybuilding glory days are long over and he's very fortunate to have the health that he does, as has been said.
-
;) he was thee monster in his time.
-
Well to play devils advocate; retired pros shouldn't play the size game it's just unhealthy, but I do roll my eyes when I see a retired pro that is so shrunk he looks like he's never step foot in a gym (all drugs). Dorian you can at least tell at one point he was massive.
-
recall thought that this disproportionate decline in arm size started way back in 1996:

That shouldn't be a Mr O physique right here... His arms are badly damaged unfortunately . . .
-
maybe he's not a big believer in training arms?
-
The bicep tear from 1994 was not repaired because it was a torn in the center of the muscle not the end of the attachment. It was unrepairable.
The tricep from 1997 was operated on but he had to wait a few months and obviously it was not successful (hence he retired).
The forearms were starting to recede the last few years before he retired just like Cutler, Branch, Gaspari and many others have/did.
-
At least he is not filling them like Flex is still doing.
-
his forearms are still there
ERROR 404 - FOREARMS NOT FOUND
-
Dorian for the win
-
Old "no one" should read this thread.
He keeps banging on about how good people have to look now as opposed to what they achieved at their peak.
Daft twat will be calling the likes of Dorian out when he's 80 saying, "what you look like now bro"
-
Dorian Yates looks pretty good in my opinion. He looks like a regular guy who works out and leads a relatively healthy lifestyle. What more could one ask for at 51 years old.

looks like a big dude on steroids
if you dont think so take a hard look at a picture of yourself in a loose t shirt and compare
-

Yeah but they both have fine old ladies or should I say young.
-

True my shoulders aren't as big as his. What size T-shirt do you suppose he's wearing? I look pretty big in a large T-shirt and reasonable in an X-large one. I never had a build like his though so I am coming from a completely different perspective. My forearms are similar to his, minus any tattoos.

no offense dude, but you look exactly how I would picture an older closeted homosexual top to look. Lol.

I am not offended, but I am also not closeted nor homosexual....so, FOOLED YOU! Beware of stereotyping people. Older closeted and out homosexuals most likely look just like anyone else.
Here's an idea. How about you post your photo, either shirtless or not and then we can all comment on what you look like to us. I promise to be kind and not offensive although I cannot speak for others here.

aren't you the old dude who was always in every Tbomz thread trying to flirt with him
-

Flirt is your term, not mine.
Actually, I probably tried to advise him to make better choices than to parade is butthole on the Internet wearing a bunny suit or advertise himself for cheap illegitimate massages. We have all seen what happened to some others who went this way, i.e. Derek Anthony. Sometimes and for some people that seamy life is like falling down a rabbit hole (pun intended).
-
His arms are just as big as Branch's will be when he retires... If he makes it to retirement.
He's prolly still on HRT ~ just so he can try to live some semblance of a normal life.
What is Lee Labrada's excuse?
-

was just saying he looks big
not saying you in particular do not
-

He's posted about having another mans dick in his mouth, so I don't think closeted is the right term.
When did Dorian get back on the big doses? Is this a midlife crisis triggered by younger brazillian poon?
-
He's retired and living the good life. We all know bodybuilding is all drugs, or are drugs the finishing touch??? Glad to see he's not playing the size game in retirement, seems like a lot of fellas don't fair too well when they try. :-X
I get that, but as a natural man who just lifts to keep in shape, it's pretty sad that's the extent of how large his arms can get by not juicing. It just shows that as a natural man, he's actually quite thin (under average size arms, etc). Which indicates that it really was ALL DRUGS in his case.
-
He has no reason to be "huge" anymore.
I'm not saying he has to be huge, but it looks like he never lifted a weight in his life.
-
It looks like that, doesn't it? It's just fat and sagging skin. Getting old isn't all it's cracked up to be. ;D
This better?

Not a bad build for 69 years old (no homo) most of of us here probably will not look as good at 69 or be alive for that matter.
-
Dorian Yates drives an Aston Martin and has a hot latina girlfriend, so I think he is very concerned about the negative comments Getbiggers have about him. ;D

-
Agreed. These are the pics I was thinking of.
Dude is still a monster.
One look at his abs and you know he's on gear. (Perhaps he starts injecting for the summer season?) Without it he looks like a normal man of his age, who goes to a fitness centre three times per week.

well, I thought that was obvious. Its also highly irrelevant, as im sure youknow. Dude would never come off, think of all the years of megadosing it took to get him to the top, its probable that he would have no test left if he didnt inject it. Lol.
besides, why wouldnt he still juice?

branch is a hero
he's bald short and fairly bad looking
yet made his life into a resounding success (elite bber, successful business owner, big money, nice cars, nice wife, goes hunting in his free time......)
-
Dorian looks happier now, than when he was competing. So does Shawn Ray for that matter.
-
I'm 50 and my bodyfat is always at 9-10 percent.
It's true, your chest does start sagging... just like a woman's tits do with age.
This is why I don't have my clients do Declines. Concentrate on Inclines, even higher-than-normal inclines. Chest will sag eventually even if you keep your bodyfat in check.
Some things about getting old do suck, but not everything. Ahhh... to be able to do it all over again. Think how much better and more intelligent we would be?
Look at Andreas Cahling. Shredded to the bone and old... upper chest is history and man-boobs are forming.

Yes, even at 40 you notice a huge decline in almost everything in your physique.
All was good up until 35, past that things started to go haywire and you finally felt that you're starting to grow old.
The feeling at 50 must be that feeling times tenfold.

Seems like you accept that which cannot be changed or at least not changed through reasonable means. I am learning to do the same all the time. I admire how good someone in their 20's and 30's looks when they commit to being fit by working out. While I wouldn't mind looking like that again, I am a practical person, so I know that isn't going to happen. That is why I give myself credit for being as fit as I am at nearly 70 years of age.
Poor Andreas. Whatever it was that destroyed his looks (was it Bell's Palsy or a stroke? Can't remember now) he has soldiered on. You got to give the fellow credit for that. A lot of weaker people would have caved to the illness. He was a lot better looking than me when he was young. Seeing him today, makes me thankful for the life and good health I've enjoyed all these years.
Good to know about declines. I used to love doing them. Now I use the ISO Lateral wide chest machine. It works the outer pec as well as the lower area, but not as directly as a regular decline bench press.
My man boobs are probably the result of too high a fat percentage. I think it is around 12%. I am working on this some, although I hate cardio because it bores me silly. At my age balance is key. I am somewhat careful about what I eat without being obsessive about it. I exercise to feel good and so it makes no sense to do something that doesn't result in that no matter that it is good for me....speaking of cardio mainly. Hey, at least I don't have a pot belly! ;D

Sometimes though, you as old as you feel. I think it pays to feel good about yourself regardless of how many years you have on you. I will never be 20 again, why lament about it?
40 felt good.
50 was fine.
60 was okay....wanted to retire, but couldn't yet.
Today I feel great!
In a few days, I will tell you want 69 feels like. Of course this changes from day to day. ;D

I'll tell you what, for the younger guys reading this thread just realize this: Aging will affect you.
When you are young, you don't think about it.. much.
Blink your eyes and suddenly the years have passed you by.
You can ignore it up to a point, but then there comes a day when you can't put it off anymore.
Nothing is as it "used to be"
How you deal with it will determine how much internal fortitude you had in the first place, and for those of you who find this topic depressing, just remember: Staying in shape to the best of your abilities is a hell of a lot better than letting yourself go, regardless of the little things you notice when you get older. Looser skin, etc.
If you are on this board and you are not a troll or a fat pig who is sitting, hiding behind a monitor, you probably work out. I am sure that the older guys can shed more light on the topic, but for me?
Keep working out and be glad you didn't wait until you were 50 to begin. I've been at it my whole life. You can take some time off here and there, but don't take too long of a break. It will get tougher and tougher to get back what you once had, and if you listen to us older dudes, you will realize that it never be like it was.
Don't let it get you down, let it be a motivation.
BTW, Andreas Cahling just posted today on his FB page what really happened to him.
Read the last sentence carefully.
"It has been said that the legs are the first thing "to give in" for mature athletes. My legs has been a real challenge. I have never shared before that I am missing a nerve in one of my lower legs. The nerve was cut out and transplanted to my face over 10 years ago while a golfball sized tumor was removed from a facial nerve. The tumor was growing real close to my brain so I opted for surgical removal. Surgery took 19 to 21 hours. They told me I would not walk on my own for weeks. I was up and moving 2 days after surgery to their surprise not needing the walkers and canes they brought. While starting to walk I heard the therapist say: "you can not walk yet" and within a few days I was back in the gym. Now you folks are the first to know this part of my life story."

Yeah there are many older men who hang around bodybuilding and always seem to want to "advise" the younger guys, which is pretty much code for you guys sticking your dick in their asses

You wish!
What makes you think your dick is worthy of anyone's ass.
You make me laugh. Young punks like you are like the proverbial saying, "The bigger they are, the harder they fall."
What's that? Is it some old dick stuck in your pussy ass? LOL!

Yes, everything starts to sag. It is the skin and perhaps connective tissue, as well as gyno/man boobs? Look at Michael Douglas in his latest movie "Behind the candelabra", about Liberace. It looks like somebody hanged a size xxl skin on a medium size person.
The decline vs incline press thing- I dont know. You need to also go with exercises that does not hurt your shoulders as you age. My shoulders ( I am 44) can handle decline presses very well, and when I do flat benches, I arch my back and squeeze my shoulder blades together. I actually set an all time personal record on the flat bench a couple of months ago and I have been training since my 20s, so strength does not go as of yet. But the skin starts to sag and man boobs are lurking. It's depressing. But I think having a muscular chest is better than being skinny with sagging skin. So declines are better than no presses at all.

This is why I don't have my clients do Declines. Concentrate on Inclines, even higher-than-normal inclines. Chest will sag eventually even if you keep your bodyfat in check.
Some things about getting old do suck, but not everything. Ahhh... to be able to do it all over again. Think how much better and more intelligent we would be?
Look at Andreas Cahling. Shredded to the bone and old... upper chest is history and man-boobs are forming.
This is very disheartening to hear :-\ :-\ :-\

Yeah there are many older men who hang around bodybuilding and always seem to want to "advise" the younger guys, which is pretty much code for you guys sticking your dick in their asses
Why do you guys always tie gayness to anything? Are there things?

Yes, everything starts to sag. It is the skin and perhaps connective tissue, as well as gyno/man boobs? Look at Michael Douglas in his latest movie "Behind the candelabra", about Liberace. It looks like somebody hanged a size xxl skin on a medium size person.
The decline vs incline press thing- I dont know. You need to also go with exercises that does not hurt your shoulders as you age. My shoulders ( I am 44) can handle decline presses very well, and when I do flat benches, I arch my back and squeeze my shoulder blades together. I actually set an all time personal record on the flat bench a couple of months ago and I have been training since my 20s, so strength does not go as of yet. But the skin starts to sag and man boobs are lurking. It's depressing. But I think having a muscular chest is better than being skinny with sagging skin. So declines are better than no presses at all.

agree, like you im 44 training since my 20's, when you hit your 40's your body changes so i jumped on the peds when i was 42, these have really helped my physique, picked my chest up infact and brought my shoulders back. can only do decline with the bar due shoulder injury use mainly hammer strength machines and cable machines for most now as i feel it takes the pressure off certain areas. not interested in lifting heavy weights, an operation on my lower back and a tendon release in my left elbow put paid to all that, 3-4 plates my limit but i do a few drop sets to get the stimulation, plus i move the weight a lot slower now, more precise and always squeeze when at maximum contraction, stimulate not annihilate, train with intelligence. let the young'uns lift the heavy weights.
regarding dorian, i saw him at bodypower this year and he is in great condition, the photo of him with wife by the pool is how he looks now, not the first set of pics with branch warren.

Primemuscle is a good fellow, I don't think he would ass fuck any of us unless we were asking for it by dressing slutty.
Assholes are full of shit, no matter how they dress. ::)

And :'(
just the finishing touch

Dorian should be glad just to be alive.
Imagine the amount of drugs that has been through his system.
Nasser and Momo approved.
that's cold... ;D

Honestly, how large do you think his upper arms would stretch out to with a measuring tape? :-[
He sure tries hard to hide that left arms in most of his pics.
