Raw Bodybuilding, Health & Life Advice From a 6x Mr. Olympia | Dorian Yates (E050)

Dorian Yates is a legendary English bodybuilder 6x former Mr. Olympia who revolutionised the sport by being the first of the so-called “mass monsters.” His “high intensity” philosophy involved pushing each set to failure through techniques like forced reps, drop sets and partial reps. This allowed him to maximise muscle stimulation in shorter, more intense workouts. After retiring from competitive bodybuilding, Yates has transferred his knowledge into DY Nutrition which offers a line of premium and science-backed products to help people achieve their health goals.
