Dorian Yates, the six time Mr. Olympia is known by his incredible development as well as his high intensity workouts.
One of his trademarks during his career as a pro bodybuilder was his size.

He stepped onstage with a weight of over 250 pounds – it was something no other bodybuilder has done before. Or like Dorian says – bodybuilding is about creating the best physique one can create.

Dorian’s workout routine was heavily influenced the methods and theories of Arthur Jones and Mike Mentzer – it is low in both volume and frequency – a complete opposite from what other bodybuilders were doing at that time.

But his shape testifies that brief and intense training can produce amazing results.


The frequency of training

Muscle growth happens only during rest, after the muscle has been stimulated trough intense stress (weightlifting workout).* The theory is that one should train when his muscles are fully recovered from the previous workout. This recovery time depends on many factors like genetics, rest, nutrition, the usage of anabolic drugs etc. Dorian’s recommendation is that a person should train the same muscle group every six to seven days.
