My favorite BB of all time, but I really think I like Haney's physique better. But I still watch Dorian's video and it is motivating.
 
I'm not typical either, because I like the Mike Mentzer and Frank Zane physiques best of all.

I am SOOOOO not the typical guy on here but I'll say this anyway just for for fun.

While I can appreciate his undeniably SICK THICK MASS, dudes like David Henry still look better to me :p

I'm all about the tight/peeled dialed in, ripped, balanced/proportionate zero bloat look while still able to maintain full muscle bellies. Just wows me!

Yeah, I know you! :D Perhaps its bcoz the Henry-look is more attainable...whereas a Yates-look is alien-like and odds are none of us could ever reach that look in our wildest dreams. :p

Shit brutha put your old avi back up...the one where YOU look sick with cuts and NATTY at that! :eek: Doc with your genetics, if you was running the same shit as Henry is, you would probably hold your own standing next to him homie. ;)
 
Funny how when the talk of great physiques of all time come up, everyone forgets the 1998 version of Ronnie Coleman.:D

Definitely the most muscular physique in the history of the sport. I really never thought anyone could beat Ronnie until he decided to retire.

Indeed Kev was sick! BTW I made it a point to post Dorian's vid of when he was truly great, as IMO they GAVE him 2 O's. Shawn, Flex or Kev shoulda won the 2 that was given to Yates after his major tears. It was almost (but not quite) as bad as giving Franco the O in '81...THEE worst decison EVER made in O history...yes even worse than Arnold winning the '80 O. Franco had NOOOOO quads and bitch tits from hell...a true abomination and embarrasment to the sport that year. I guess thats the "perks" that comes with being Arnies little buddy.lol
 
279 lbs this DENSE in '93 was unheard of! :eek: This is from the series of pics posted in the mags that shook up the world back then....

I've been to his gym 'Temple' in Birmingham, fucken place is a pit but cool, stuff looks old and worn, rips in the pads here and there, rust in places, but it works, machines are angled just right and effective. Ernie Taylor used to train there and said when he came in in the morning he would toss a five pound plate down the stairs (the gym is in a basement)to frighten the rats away
 
The pic of him in your avi rules...can you post the large size of it brutha?

THAT pic displays one of the most balanced, massive and dense physiques ever. Many people are out of touch when they strictly associate smallness with proportioned, balanced and symmetrical, ie Zane, Dexter, etc. Not so. Whereas most monsters indeed are/were NOT balanced, Yates broke the mold (before all the muscle tears of course).

p.s....Thats the largest version you have of that pic bro?

This guy was also and English monster, has a gym in Florida now. Never quite got it right for the Olympia though. I trained at his gym as a kid, strongest thing I ever saw, could incline 7 plates a side!
