The fact that Dorian is asking Derek questions shows he doesn't have a bullshit ego and that is pretty cool.
Can’t count the times I’ve heard Derek say “The guy is shredded out of his GD tree, looking like Dorian Fkn Yates” lol. Great crossover

Yates would not have got anywhere without Leroy Davies walking him through every exercise, every time! He particularly struggled with sequencing the dumbbell curl even during his Olympia reign!!
“The competition is NOT on the stage. That’s the end result. The competition is every day DAY IN, DAY OUT that nobody actually sees”. This really resonates with me!! With my wildlife photography it’s similar. It’s the preparation, the miles of walking to the destination where the animals are. The knowing your gear and the concentration needed to create the finished photograph that people love. Thanks, Dorian, great podcast as always. Can’t wait to see Lee Haney on one day!!❤
Lining up some great guests in this podcast. Nice one. DY winning in the podcast world too.
When dorian speaks i listen.. it was cool having derek on as well
I feel fortunate to live in a time where the information we need to stay as healthy as possible is available. Imagine back in Dorian's day when they didn't even know to take blood pressure meds.
Cant wait. Going to be on of Your best podcast next to Tom platz one
Hey Dorian. I love your content, character and discussions. Probably (99.99%) you will not read this, but please know that genuinely you have inspired me in the past 3 years via your podcasts & HIT programs. Thank you.

Thank you for your support and kind words! I'm glad to hear that my content and HIT programs have inspired you over the past few years. Keep pushing forward and striving to be your best. Stay strong and keep training hard!
came here from the MPMD short. Soon as I saw you two together I knew I needed to see the whole thing.
I've never seen Derek so nervous !
Dorian had a chuckle and you could see a flashback ,💪🏻 you are thee man! **
Dorian was always such a breath out of fresh air. He doesn't need a hundred thousand likes to feel validated!!
Always a pleasure and a delightful surprise to get a new Dorian podcast episode dropping. Looking forward to the one with Peter Attia as well.
Stoked to see dorian more on the internet nowdays, i remember 3-4 years ago loving the scarce content and podcasts of his you could find. Would love to pick his brain one day for adapting H.I.T styles.
Everyone who is great at what they do has one thing in common. Surprisingly, it is not talent or determination, these are common but not universal. Universally, they have a simple and actionable way of thinking about what they do. This lets them focus on what is important so their effort yeilds results. Dorian is the most concise thinker on body building and his explanations always display deep understand distilled to their essence. He is a great for a reason.
Thank you Dorian, for this episode. Valuable information for us women who love listening to your content. I'm definitely one of your 3% 😊 ❤
Happy to see Derek with The Shadow. Legend 💪
Good to see Derek is back sat in his mum and dad's sauna
Love Dorian. Super smart guy, so relaxing to hear him share his experiences
Awesome, easily one of my favourite podcasts. Excited to see who you bring on next!
the podcast we all need and deserve
There's something about Dorian's storytelling that is so good, what a great interview! I loved that part about the anti-estrogens. I had a similar experience using a 19-nor only base and paid a bit of a price. Bodybuilding has come a long ways but I still love the 90's era, he's right when he describes 90's desire in the gym. BIG was in, but I can appreciate Dorian's different identity. In our eyes he's still in essence BODYBUILDING.
I cant imagine how Derek felt talking to Dorian. Its a dream
Crazy multiverse crossover. Have been a fan of Dorian since I started bodybuilding and Derek since 2020. We needed this! Thank you from returning from the shadows Derek!
The respect that Dorian shows for my Canadian compatriot Derek is contagiously humbling. It is familiar: I am a college professor, and I learn from my students.
the statement about 'Competition' was Gold, thanks
Great episode! You are a legend Mr Yates, can't wait for the next one!!
I loved hearing Dorian discuss his experiences. Let’s get these two guys together again soon.
Brilliant this was a epic collaboration. I've go so much respect for dorian I love listening to him speak, in such a fake World his a one of the real ones.
Genuinely excited for this
It's be awesome to see you speak with Leroy Davis and the past training you guys achieved
We got a derek and dorian podcast lets fkn go
I would love to see more of these two. Dorian and Derek are my favorite of all time in the fitness industry.
The mental health issue for gear is super important and very much overlooked for sure.
Dorian making up words in his add read "adoptatation" i like that 👌
One to save ! Encyclopaedic and very educational ! Eye opener for sure. See you on the next one Dorian !
Great back and forth. Derek is always so good at general conversation as a guest and host
Looking forward to it.

Not a fan of bodybuilding or body builders. But Dorian is a first class G. Complete honesty. Rare dude
So stoked on the collab!! 🙏💪
A podcast with Dorian is a gift. Always.
Please Dorian we want one with your favourite peer KEVIN LEVRONE....Please 😭 😭😭 I've always been a die hard fan of the SHADOW since childhood but lately i've learnt about Kevin's journey and all that he has been through... It would be very inspiring and already goosebumped imagining it happen and you both talkin bout your walk of life... Great motivation for all young bloods Before i die i wanna see you guys talking over this beautiful craft you guys share... ❤ PLEASE DORIAN...much love ❤️🔥
I was surprised to see this collaboration, but man did i click faster than ive ever clicked on a video before in my life 😂. Great video. Kind of reminds me of the years old video of Dorian telling his stories on the joe rogan experience.
17:05 damn it, I really hoped he would answer what was his treshold of taking steroids. Nasser El Sonbaty said the most he took was 5000mg of test without other compounds. We understand that genetics play a huge roll and building muscle takes time, but I wish they would just say how much steroids it took to get Mr. Olympia title. What was their max.

Your honesty is awesome Dorian. Arnold would never even think of saying what he did. I guess to be fair he was in politics and they are full of lies. Can I ask for a healthy 54 year old is small amounts of test and so on a big issue health wise ?

It's awesome to see Dorian's brand really start to crossover onto the mainstream's radar. One of the most dominant bodybuilders of all time should be a household name like Michael Jordan, Mike Tyson, Derek Jeter. He certainly is held in that regard in this house. As my sons are finally reaching training age I assure you they're super familiar with The Shadow and have a great deal of reverence and appreciation for the database that he's shared.
Dorian smoothly moving away from the dosage question ha
Good conversation - cheers! I must admit that I had different experience with steroids, used Nolvadex but very speringly and couple of shots of HCG after the cycles were enought to restart my natural testosterone production whiteout an issues (never used more than 1000mg test per week tho). This shows how different every individual is regarding the usage of drugs and I think that trial & error is king but it is good to have general knowledge about the subject before you start experimenting on yourself 😅
That flex leg extension. The seat was angled a bit. The weight was centered and each leg went next to the hinge. Loved that thing.

I hate the new extensions with the side pivot, it doesn’t feel the same and the pad usually distorts over time so one leg ends up further forward than the other.

Great podcast as expected 👏 could have easily watched the 3 hour version 😀

Great show. Thanks Dorian.
“Not necessarily a bad thing…” 😂😂😂
F yeah, best collab ever.
This will be good. Nice one DY
Gonna be a banger!!!
Lots of matters in like appear straight forward but are infact more complicated than first appearances. So it is with harmones, an ignorant man would surpose "its just a hormone", however having listened to Derek it becomes apparent how complicated the endocrine system is and how upsetting steroids are.
4000 calories for contest sounds logical if 7k
Dorian the legend.
Never thought I’d see this!
Awesome content. 👌 Makes me wanna blast another cycle haha
Hot that like button guys! 🤙 C'mon!
I love these podcasts, and this was a very good one!! The only thing that annoys me little bit is I hear a lot of the same questions; ‘what you do differently’, ‘who’s better todays guys or the 90’s etc etc. I want to know things like how was the diet, when did he have a relaxing meal (every week or two etc when in the off season) what did he do to kill time back in the day when not training (e.g video games, pick kids up from school , what’s films etc. what did he think of victor Richard’s when he saw him, was he as big as they say, was vi bigger than Dorian, does he think box in shape do well in the mr.o. There’s so much more to know, but it’s about asking the right questions
Fantastic podcast
uau, that was great. ansewred all my qustions about dorian..
Supraphysiological dosage of knowledge. Thumbs up emoji times three bro
Wow two legends🎉
Nice 👍. Going to listen tomorrow
Liked the video faster than Derek can say supraphysiological.
39:20 Myostatin regulate your ability to put on muscle, it also is regulates connective tissue. lower myostatin = more muscle (belgian blue)but at the same time it lowers the proliferation of tendon fibroblasts. it's an inverse relation it's actually genius
