Dorian Yates got small

[Burning_Inside]

what happened?

 

[V-Machine]

I would imagine that he decided to give his body a rest after all that heavy training and heavy cycles.

 

[mountain muscle]

Smaller but still bigger than 99% of elite posters.

 

[biteme]

He still looks great, even though it looks like he lost 100lbs. Damn.

 

[georgie24]

he's off cycle now.

 

[biteme]

he's off cycle now.

That's a hell of an off cycle when you lose what looks like 100lbs. He is still big though, which shows just how big he once was. His face and neck are small.

 

[mountain muscle]

Guy is still crazy large and dense...

 

[biteme]

Actually his face looks like a normal person's now. His arms look about 18" instead of 23". He is much smaller through the chest, shoulders, and back.

 

[Robert Jan]

Id rather look like that than the way he used to look

 

[georgie24]

everyone on this board aspires to be the guy on the right for some reason. i will never figure that out.

 

[biteme]

I can't imagine that he was comfortable carrying 300+ lbs. on a 5'10" frame. He sure didn't look it anyway. Not in the pictures that I remember seeing.

 

[mountain muscle]

The guy on the right looks like hell.. if Dorian's arms arm 18* in that picture and BBF's are 19 in his I will behead a dozen al queda members... Dorian in his worst days looks a lot better than dmost of us.

Who is the Sweating Virginia ham on the right?

 

[mountain muscle]

Chef... any good ways to cook up a rather fat ham?

 

[gregory]

Maybe he screwed up his PCT?

I have been off for about 5 years and went down from a high of 275 to 210 right now. The thing is i am very close to being just as strong overall and definitely in better shape. Shit, sometimes i think to myself "that could NOT have been healthy".

Probably isn't. But I'd like to get there at least once, just to see what it's like.

 

[Forge]

what happened?

I think he looks better at that weight than he ever did before. IMHO of course, there is a point where too big is just too big.

 

[GoldenDelicious]

finally looks good

Oh well don't get me wrong, it was FUN. I really enjoyed the celebrity status i got whenever we went out. Everyone always eyeballing you, strangers looking to make friends, people always wondering what's your secret. Everyone in the gym always crowding around you for "advice". It was some of the best times in my life, so perhaps it was not all that bad.

One thing i can tell you though. People really respect size. There is nothing more impressive to the average person then a really large bodybuilder that's resonably lean. It like you're a magnet for people. Of course it helped that i am 6'3 in height, so the weight worked with me. But i had friends that could not pull that look off due to their lack of height, so they ended up looking like stupid meatheds. The best advice i can give anyone is to always work with their body and stay simmetrical. Don't just try to get "big" for the sake of getting big.

 

[Burning_Inside]

the guy on the right in that pic has 19" arms, so if you want to compare.......

 

[the nature boy]

Dorian Yates is a sweaty bastard.

 

[RaZor Ramon]

He looks healthy now. He didn't look so healthy when he was Mr. O although he was impressively big as hell. He has a nice muscular fit look now. It's not like this is anything new. Nearly every top pro BBer loses quit a bit of weight when they stop competing. If they didn't they probably would make it past 55.

 

[tiger88]

i wanna see a topless pic of him now

 

[Tryn2]

I cant get that link to work anymore...anyone else ??

 

[Lumberg]

Still works for me.

he looks more like a real person than when he competed. I like it. Still has a full head of hair too.

 

[RottenWillow]

He's actually kinda cute now that his face doesnt look like it's about to explode. Body is bang worthy now too.

 

[PIGEON-RAT]

He's still pretty damn big. Why would he want to be at his max weight anymore if he's not competing? It takes way too much work/food/drugs to get there and stay at the size he was at before. Now he can still enjoy his time in the gym and live somewhat of a normal life.

 

[Sean Scott]

Guy is still crazy large and dense...

True True True!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[biteme]

Yeah. I was thinking the same thing.

 

[canadianhitman]

My guess is that he wants to live to a normal old age....no more juice.

 

[georgie24]

anyone wanna guess his current "maintanance" stack?

gh? var?

 

[stevejoy]

Because of his injuries, his competitive days are over. No need for him to keep taking all those drugs.
