Dorian's arms were huge, however his lats and deltoids were so enormous they gave off the illusion that his arms were normal. Phenomenal.
Just on stage, his arms maybe small than the other but when you compare him to every normal guy not compete, his arms was f*ucking huge
That’s why they call him the shadow
20 inch arms
@@reese3407 20 inches when completely ripped. Thats crazy. Arnold who is known for his arms had 21 inch arms, and he obviously never got as lean as dorian.
@@bendover7152 that’s a lie. Biggest arms in the 70s belonged to Sergio
When Dorian tells us something, we gotta do it. Legend!

Dorian the type of legend that Does not want us here but somewhere in a dungeon working out
I could listen to Dorian talk all day!
He doesn't try to make training something it isn't, like a lot of social media trainers do!
Training isn't rocket science, and people try to make it into something scientific.
Dorians approach speaks for itself, 6 straight Mr Olympia titles, enough said!
Well spoken Tony, stay strong
@@thomashald6750 thank you, you too.
Yes, Dorian is the only one who gives such practical advice rather than fixed a x b workouts.
Btw, do you have any pointers for chest? You have an amazing chest!
I like his training style, but personally I like to train in a way that allows me to hit a muscle again after 2-3 days of rest because your muscles only grow for 1-3 days after your training session.

1:46 thank you for that. Finally someone who is not recommending more frequency/volume to bring up lagging body parts. I agree, to grow a stubborn muscle one needs better and harder training, not more of the same stuff which isn’t working in the first place.
He’s videos should never have thumbs down. In my eyes he’s the smartest bodybuilder of all times, also very good teacher and knows how to explain proper and simple.
Thank you for your kind words. Cheers! My online training platform is now ready: dorianyates-hit.com
Being a fan since the 90s, in 2024, Dorian is top one of the most inspiring.
His legacy is accomplished. I'm forever great for bros like you.
Thanks big man
I wish this legend has a weekly podcast that he can speak to us for hours.. No just about bodybuilding but every endeavor in life.
Dorian is a terrific example of one who's been there at the sharp end and talks absolutely straight.
John McEnroe, Mark Webber etc. Many thanks DY.
Love the more focus and intensity training vs more frequently
Thanks for posting, Dorian has a great deal of clearly-delivered wisdom.
I am always very grateful when you give really good information. please continue. Best regards
New subscriber. Thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge 💪🏼

Have a blessed weekend to the shadow , living legend 6x Mr O and his all family ❤️❤️❤️
Thank u, i have thinking of this topic litterly all Day long after my session today
Very grateful Dorian. My hero 👍👍
Key message. Stronger bodyparts - (only to failier) weaker parts - go beyond with extra negatives. So basicly train like a beast every god damn workout. Leave your phone in the bag. On flight mode!! 💪
well yes but also find the exercise that works for you. put your mind in that muscle
Looking well Dorian!!
Great video thank you
Since training my biceps much more technically sound and down to the tee with more unique targeting on ALL my bicep heads, that helped a lot to beat my bi weakness.
Forearms are still a weakness of mine, but I've been noticing that multiple drop sets in a single exercise have wrecked them hard and are making them grow more now than before when I was just doing wrist curls.
What Do you do For Forearms
I like to train something I'm prioritizing first day of the week. Also the mind-muscle connection and going slow enough (perhaps with a pause) to make it a muscle contraction exercise and not a tendon elasticity exercise is important. Personally I never found barbell bench press to be a great pec exercise, yet dumbbell flyes with a nice pause and stretch are great for me.
Thank you.
Awosome
Thanks coach
When dorian talks you listen 💪🏋♂️
Great information
Glad it was helpful!
You're a legend 🔥🔥
so true, this works really for me as a natty
Thanks for the advice Dorian you are a legend 🎉
Happy to help!
Difference between wisdom and knowledge
Thanks sir
Just done today Your Legs day from blood and guts now my calves can't walk 😅😅 but feels great that I gave everything I got 💪
Unless you throw up in the car park you haven't worked hard.....
@@peternagy-im4be Exactly. I train once per month, but I teain until I am seriously injured. Everything else is aerobics.
@@peternagy-im4be Was doing leg press or squat Yates and platz style. after the work set id go straight to the gym toilet and throw up, barely able to walk
@@SwissCheese112 gyms don't like people training like this any more. But i still do it. Screw this pathetic society full of weak and spineless little pr*cks
@@peternagy-im4be honestly its not even worth it lol, like yeah go to failure. but what's the point of going till you throw up. as a natural youre only going to screw up your recovery process if you take it to those dumb extremes. then you'll get weaker and your progress will stop all together.
I think in some separate video, Dorian mentioned he doesn't prefer barbell bench presses all that much for chest.
Correct
Thats true. I started to train calves and biceps early in my training days and I have made some improvements. Focus is everything. Let the phone in the the locker room. Do not talk between sets and focus on squeeze the muscles. This is it, and patience of course plis quality nutrition
Hi Dorian
I've actually met you in person at your gym in Temple Street in Brum a few years back, before your Olympia wins.
I'm an old 63 yo man living north of Brum, Wednesbury.
I can only go to the gym on Mon, Tues, and Wedn, so i split my workout 3 ways. In these 3 sessions, effectively giving a week rest between each body's part work outs, i'm inadvertently implementing Mike Mentzers's training principle of getting enough rest between work outs. I'm getting still at my age great results. I, like yourself have weaker biceps and chest compared to my other body parts, though. I have good back, lats and calves. What do you suggest to bring those lagging body parts at a par with the rest of my physique?
Cheers my mate, you're still a legend. Regards Sergio Uk
Words of wisdom
My weakness is my lats and biceps. I’m doing his blood and guts program but using my own exercises that suit me. I am happy with everything but my back. I’m keeping a log and progressing however the heavier I go on back the more I am feeling it in my arms and although I am going through the range of motion, pausing at the contraction and slowing down the negative using a full stretch and correct form, I feel the contraction but I remember when I did high volume on my last before I started blood and guts k used to get a burn which is something I don’t really feel when training back. I could drop the weight and do more reps but that defeats the point of HIT so. It’s abit of a pain. Everything else tho I am enjoying.
The shadow castle vales best
Birmingham finest
UKs number 1
Dorian if u read this u are a truly gifted individual u are the reason I train loads massive shout out to the original temple gym the dungeon love from austin representing Birmingham
Wow, thank you!
thanks for the reply Dorian hope u and your familly are well these body builders need to take your stature and outlook no photos no social media just hard work and have a goal in mind stay safe
I used to train legs back and bi's Monday and Thursday and chest shoulders tri's Tuesday and Friday but now that I'm in my mid 50's I've changed to legs (inc' calves) on Tues, chest and back on Wed and shoulders and arms on Thursday, (Friday is 'bits' day so that's traps abs and calves 🙂). This is a recent change so am I doing enough is my question? I just didn't feel like I'd recovered enough on my old routine before I was back hitting the muscle again.
I have started to focus on one exercice (compound lifts). And then two easier exercises, its amazing doing it 2-3 days in a row. I have found that when yoy build up to your heaviest set you never get the same fatigue as if you do nultiple sets within the same weight scheme. Then when you feel for a break i just switch bodypart. Its sort of HIT / Bulgarian.
Hope somebody finds this interesting, its fun not feeling locked in to a program, oh and fuck counting reps 😈
Blood and guts every day 💪🏽
Dorian and Charles glass should do a video together.
100% true
The only thing that worked for my upper chest was light weight standing dumbell pec squeeze (similar to supinated dumbell front raise but slightly across the body and targeting upper pecs)till failure and little rest between the sets. I tried to engorge the muscle with blood to pump it hard enough and it worked.
"On stronger body parts you don't use so much intensity, maybe just go to the point of failure and don't go beyond that"
Just to failure, fuck.
Yep going to failure on that last set is minimum requirement for Dorian. I don't think most know what true failure is or can go there mentally. Certainly if you are training solo you most likely are not going to true failure. In those cases I usually do a drop set after the max effort set. Dorian recommends that as well.
At what degree angle would you consider a low decline?
One notch below flat, so roughly 195°

Great as always. Sadly, being 40 and weighing 75 kgs @1,70 my weak part is my whole body unfortunately
Never too late, buddy! I am turning 40 this year and lost 60 pounds on a keto approach. I’m no longer keto either so it’s sustainable. One thing that seems to work really well if you are overweight is a 2 meal per day plan with no snacks in between. I can’t stress this enough. Try it out. I would do more of a keto approach first just to get the fat off. You will feel nice and full and happy to be losing the weight. It’s not hard at all believe me. Good luck!!
That's not too bad if your body fat is low
Hop on TRT
@@MrGflan @75Kgs I think he's complaining about starting from a SMALL mass base.
Keep working and praying to God everything will come once you put the work and believe
Yeaah
Or if you live in Brazil, use synthol!
For an Englishman called Yates he has a trace of a foreign accent, a ghost of one...
Just his Brummie accent coming through
@@JackR845 That's another thing...his accent isn't Brum either.
@@jaybee2402 It's a odd accent I can't quite place it overall, but you can definitely hear the Birmingham accent in there.
Do we all understand this. What worked for Arnold may not work for you. What worked for Frank Zane may not work for you. Every body is different. You can't expect to look like Dorian when he was gifted with lats and calves. You heard him say it.
True Arnold had weak legs and lower body, Tom platz didn’t have any genetics except legs, jay cutler didn’t have the best genes. The point is recognizing your weaknesses and working on them until they become a strength and you can win Olympias someday and inspire millions like those guys did. I will be like arnie and Franco with a physique like that at 270.

His arm where 20 inches
I wish I didn’t have to cutt my balls off and use Instagram etc to make money in bodybuilding these days, I work at a gym that’s too clean, too lit and too quiet. I want a dungeon life
My tip : train your weakest bodypart FIRST.
The Biomechanics of the human body is the best ever to train it is the future. Doug Brignole brings this info 100%.

Common sense advice.
4 thumbs down?
4 idiots who didn't even watch.
He had bad biceps even in the end, so not Much advice was given 🤣
That was mostly due to tears. What Dorian is trying to explain is how you optimize and get the most out of a weak muscle. At the end of the day, genetics will play the biggest role in a person's muscle development. Dorian beat a lot of guys with superior bodybuilding genetics and therefore it's wise to listen to the man if your goal is a career in bodybuilding.
He actually had good biceps, maybe not very peaky but definitely big and full.
