He’s completely right about the phone abuse in gyms. I’m sick of seeing people spending a lot of time with their phones in machines and benches and not training!
Dorian Yates is amazing as be's done it at the top of the sport for 6 years then done a successful business in DY nutrition, also is happy, reads, learns, he's found the happy medium in life, tried this and that. Wealth of experience and knowledge. What an amazing guy.

SPOT ON re: Psychedelic’s - after tripping on heavier doses in nature it, even being over a decade ago, has made me so at peace with not needing to understand everything around me, but rather to just be grateful to be part of it.
Solid interview with the master ! His current interviews are more compelling and resonate with the everyday person, not just strict bodybuilders anymore . General wellness . Aging with grace. That's where it's at . 👊😎
@FirstThingsTHRST here is a testimonial for you and Dorian; About 15mnths ago, being a hobbyist bodybuilder or professional, we always have a burn out point where we leave training and try to figure out what went wrong. I really wanted to come back better and said let me try something new, I know the former Mr. olympia did this exclusive training protocol; I started watching his videos but could not understand what he was doing until I noticed it was 1 set, 1 exercise for each part i.e Upper chest 1 set, lower pec 1 set, mid back 1 set, upper back 1 set and so on and I was freaking excited. I tried it out, got great results and then, my nervous system started going crazy, like a martial artist, the reps started getting more powerful and the density started kicking in and now at 42, way below TRT most guys use, in combination with my old prep diet, I am bigger, denser, leaner than when I was on full blown cycles in my mid 20's. Dorian won't believe my split, I learnt a lot from him, no biceps on back day and no triceps on chest day, it is reversed to avoid over lapping parts going into over training. I do a big cheat meal at the start of my training week, use that energy to train chest and back, not more than 4 or 5 exercises and working sets on back and not more than 3 working sets and exercises on chest, then over the week, I go into the gym and train the smaller parts like tris, bis, abs, traps, calves and the next big workout is quads and hams at the end of the week, I said, if traditionally we train 1 part per week, I will do 1 part every 10 days and it has worked wonders for me. After training for a whole year to failure, my nervous system has gotten so strong that it is beggining to get fatigued! I do 1 week HIT and the other week is straight away to deload, same exercise as HIT week but 3 sets for every exercise at 70% roughly with very little rest so between sets so I can still do light damage to the muscle, 3 sets at 70% is hard because I am still getting too close to failure, not going to failure is the hardest thing ever when you are used to going balls to the wall. Tell Dorian that HIT works so well because for example, each back exercise feeds off the other, they are all synergistic, mid lat row or Dumbell row will work very well with upper back, so it is more like 2 working sets rather than 1. Thanks to Dorian and Mentzer, I think very hard about volume and frequency and even exercise selection and pairing
For me, THC is not recreational, it's therapeutic. A few times a year (often only once), I'll get very high, by myself at home, and let my brain take me to a very dark place. It's always terrifying because it magnifies every minor insecurity I have and makes me face a blown-up version of all the life problems at that particular time. The good part is that every time I come up with an answer for each and every one of those insecurities and life problems (e.g. yes, that may be true but here's what I'm doing to get out of this particular situation and why it's expected to work). Tomorrow morning, I write down a detailed plan on how to tackle every one of these topics and I get a boost of motivation to go get it. CBD, on the other hand, is very good for inflammation and daily use, simply to mellow you out in situations where you need extra patience (with family members, loved ones, friends, pets, etc.) All that said, however, I cannot agree with the "no downsides" position that Dorian, and many others, take. I started smoking recreationally when I was circa 13 years old, and so did most of the gang I hung out with. It's undeniable that it fucked with my memory. I have massive holes from that part of my life all the way until mid 20s when I cleaned up my act. Yes, there were other substances involved, but I know many people who are proper potheads and they all, without exception, show massive memory problems. Also, there are numerous life situations where assertiveness is very much needed and recreational pot will take this edge away from you, often when you need it the most. Well, pardon the essay, but someone might find it interesting. Cheers all!
Very good and interesting interview. DY is my idol, you can learn a lot from him. Another positive thing that Mike let him speak and did not interrupt him often unnecessarily which is a very annoying habit at other podcasts.
Yates is a legend gave me inspiration when I started training in the 90s I've always trained balls to the wall it's the only way I like dorians views on phones in gyms it really pisses me off when someone is on a machine and your waiting to use it but they are more interested in social media in between there sets wankers and that's why there not getting gains because they haven't got the bollocks to put the effort into there workouts anyway great interview with a great bloke legend 👍
Do not use auto focus, only manual!!! The sharpnesses jumped the entire video from the persona to the background and back. In daylight you have a large margin of depth of field.
training HIT, 2-4 sets over 2-4 movements per bodypart A - shoulders, triceps, quads B - back, forearms, hamstrings C - chest, biceps, calves 2 workouts per week, so 10-11 days to go from A-C - HIT works. Train hard or long, you cannot do both.
Mike, you have a nice succinct way of asking questions to Dorian about his past and his future aspirations. It was great listening to the pair of you about your life experiences.
Hahaha i think the calves are the same as any other muscle group jeff nippard does some great science based video on them breaking down in studies what works best but i think you either have them or dont i have sparrow legs like my dad and mum but by stepdad who never trains and walks the dog has calves i would kill for
Mike I want to get really toned and fit. But I feel like I do too much 2 mma classes 2 bjj classes, 3 weight classes and 2 crossfit sessions is that too much to get muscley ? I can't decide if I'm happy to do this and stay toned and fit or change it to just weights and bulk up
You should have asked him about NASSER , when the show was fixed. I hate youtube nowadays how everyone just sucks ass. And behaves like sheep . Just following the crowd.
Dorian = the OG mass monster back then! Birminghams finest export 😁 The man who beat thr Americans time & again in their own back yard 😂.... A legend of the 90s 👊 I watched him obsessively back then ...
Mike Thurston is surprisingly good as an interviewer. Just puts in a word or two then stays the fuck outta the way while the other person talks. Of course, Dorian is a great interview subject. Very verbose and knowledgeable and articulate.
Good podcast for sure. Dorian Yates is eloquent and I personally like to listen him. He has some good takes on life and working out. I do not agree though on his views on psychedelics and weed. As there might be benefits for your health by smoking weed it might also have a negative impact on your psyche. Having a beer might get someone drunk who is not used to drinking, but smoking a joint could have a bad impact on your psyche that you can´t recover off as quick as you´d recover from a little buzz caused from having a beer. As for psychedelics: Why would you try to explore something that you don´t know anyways? Is it gonna change your life for the better? Of course you´d have to try it if you would really want to find out, which I would not recommend. I personally think that the risk of a negative impact on your soul if something goes wrong is greater than the benefits you will experience. Sure enough people are curious and some try to do forbidden, dangerous or risky things. This is a part of human nature. Nevertheless I believe you have to be really strong mentally to deal with such things.
I didnt even know Dorian used to do deloads, now i wont feel like a pussy doing them anymore. He said after 6 weeks, in my own experience its usually around the 8 weeks mark where i start to feel weaker and i start yawning in the gym ect..

I could listen to Dorian talk all day. Great guest. Top bloke
🎯
Dorian Yates? They need a two thumbs up button.
The greatest. Every word he says is true.
We need a podcast with your dad, see what he thought about all this weight lifting stuff and if he could imagine this empire you’ve got from it 🔥🔥🔥🔥
That would get no views. No offense.
His old man died when he was 8
@@thomaswilliams4546 he’s literally been in a video few months ago lad 🤣🤣 his mom passed
Dorians dad died when he was a kid.
I love Dorian Yates. He's totally right about mobile phones. It's a massive phone addiction. I agree with him on everything
We will look back at mobile phones one day with the same perspective as cigarettes and things that damage mental health too
He’s completely right about the phone abuse in gyms. I’m sick of seeing people spending a lot of time with their phones in machines and benches and not training!
Dorian Yates is amazing as be's done it at the top of the sport for 6 years then done a successful business in DY nutrition, also is happy, reads, learns, he's found the happy medium in life, tried this and that. Wealth of experience and knowledge. What an amazing guy.
I don’t know what I like more, the way Dorian explains things or how Mike makes conclusions. Thanks guys!
'Unveiling your hidden potentital by Bruce Thornwood' is a must read for everyone
Is it easy or hard to read for non native speakers? Because I‘m from germany and my english is good but not the best 😅

I can listen to Dorian all day. His and Mentzer’s philosophy on building muscle is the way.
My new favourite Dorian interview- he is so relaxed all the way through! Well done Mike
SPOT ON re: Psychedelic’s - after tripping on heavier doses in nature it, even being over a decade ago, has made me so at peace with not needing to understand everything around me, but rather to just be grateful to be part of it.
Getting blazed with Dorian got to be a tick off the bucket list ✅
Been ticked off twice
Him and Mike Tyson of course
I’d rather train with him !!
these two are just too relatable
To train as hard as he did...day in day out (for years) takes a lot of mental toughness and fortitude. Respect
And steroids
Smashing bloke. Wide awake too, which is encouraging.
Dorian is what’s missing with the world today. A proper proper man.
Good interview with the man!
Great interview. Could've listened to this conversation for many more hours
I could listen to Dorian yates all day, great podcast👍
Absolutely the best. Truly inspiring.
Words of wisdom. great interview gentlemen
Well done Mike, good stuff
Awesome interview
Great podcast super interesting for people into fitness
Awesome one ❤
Great talk ❤
Solid interview with the master !
His current interviews are more compelling and resonate with the everyday person, not just strict bodybuilders anymore .
General wellness . Aging with grace.
That's where it's at . 👊😎
He's such an interesting man to listen to
That level of service he mentions at 1:02:20 is what bulknutrients does too, i think all brands of supplements should be required to this.
I love how Humble Dorian is.
Same! It always impresses me and makes me genuinely engaged with what he has to say. He's also surprisingly wise.
I did barbel row like the KING Dorian today... It felt awesome. Great talk
You rowed 200kgs. Fair play.

This is going to be a good one 🔥
yates is pure wisdom. real human
Another back workout video with Dorian would be perfect Mike! You've had about 6 years to adequately recover, so you should be ok to go again! 😆
Always good listening to Dorian, interesting guy. Makes me want to start smoking again
Great open minded fella. 10/10
The video of Mike at Dorians Weed shop will be great! Looking forward to it.
Every time I think of having a break from weed, Dorian puts me back on track 😂
Couple puffs a day is fine,more than that you are partying,
Hi hear you bro. 😅
@@anthonyvenegas8299I blaze half a spliff every night before bed, where do you classify that?

Fantastic conversation, thank you both.
One of the greatest English sportsmen ever, talks sense to

Amazing genes, he won big shows after 1 yr. training and proshows after just few yrs. training.

One of the best humans my city has ever produced, love how relaxed and intellectual he is.
Triceps looking huge Mike 🔥
Lets go Mike 🔥🔥
🔥🔥
Amazing podcast, absolutely brilliant.
I knew it will be the legend himself. And some people were hoping for some internet one-time celebrity like Tate, jesus
That was an enjoyable watch. I'd like to hear Dorian talk more about the realities of lifting weights and nutrition for naturals. 👍👍
Great podcast Mike . love Dorian. Absolute legend
Just needed some more lighting units facing you guys, you’re in the shadows somewhat.
Sack your lighting guy 😂
Only kidding
Can't wait to get back to Marbella come fall. Best place in Europe imo.
Do not use auto focus, only manual!!! The sharpnesses jumped the entire video from the persona to the background and back. In daylight you have a large margin of depth of field.
training HIT, 2-4 sets over 2-4 movements per bodypart

C - chest, biceps, calves
2 workouts per week, so 10-11 days to go from A-C - HIT works. Train hard or long, you cannot do both.
Best British bodybuilder. He never had any education and bodybuilding was his only way out. Got him a networth over $20 million
Surprised Dorian didn’t ask Mike what he was on
Mike, you have a nice succinct way of asking questions to Dorian about his past and his future aspirations. It was great listening to the pair of you about your life experiences.
Need a meet up with the tates whilst in Europe !
This is brilliant
My two fav Trainers 💪🙏 when they talk, I listen and I dont listen to just anyone.
Mike forgot to ask the right question "How to grow Calves." 😂😂😂
Hahaha i think the calves are the same as any other muscle group jeff nippard does some great science based video on them breaking down in studies what works best but i think you either have them or dont i have sparrow legs like my dad and mum but by stepdad who never trains and walks the dog has calves i would kill for
bike riding and skipping, these work better than most other exercises
Mike I want to get really toned and fit. But I feel like I do too much 2 mma classes 2 bjj classes, 3 weight classes and 2 crossfit sessions is that too much to get muscley ? I can't decide if I'm happy to do this and stay toned and fit or change it to just weights and bulk up
Do weights one day and martial arts the next (that's what I do). Push, pull, legs split for the weights
Excellent interview one of the best ever.
very nice pod
Anyone knows what mikes shoes are called ?
