Default Dorian Yates' Training Routine

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.

What exercises should you use?

Compound big movements like squats, deadlifts, chins, bench presses and rows are the ones that stimulate muscle growth. The human body is not created to work in isolation. However, this doesn't mean that isolation exercises have no place in the workout routine.

Volume VS Intensity

Many bodybuilders believe that increasing volume is the fastest way to increase muscle mass. If this was true, there would be no need to lift heavy or to lift to failure to build muscle. You could do 50 or 100 sets with very light weight and still build muscle. Unfortunately this is nit the case - muscles need intense stress followed by adequate recovery to grow.

I personally couldn't see myself growing from just one working set per body part but clearly it has worked for him with amazing results.
Yes the first sets are warm ups but if you watch Dorians videos you will see that his "warm up" sets are more like working sets - very heavy!!

Dorian found what worked best for him you also have to look at the training system, it is one set all out you would find it very difficult doing negative squats and deadlifts.
I very rarely squat or deadlift, I do hack squats and leg presses which work well for me.
I can grow well without squats but I will put deadlifts in my routine if I feel they are needed.
Everyone is different, what works for one may not work for someone else
