Paul Baxendale shares a snippet of Dorian Yates and his bodybuilding career

The Instagram post was a long appreciation of the 6x Mr. Olympia by the scholar/bodybuilder. Throwback pictures of the competition accompanied the caption. Paul wrote in the captions about how Dorian won Mr. Olympia and said, ?Just two weeks after taking 2nd to Lee Haney in his first Olympia, @thedorianyates stood on stage in front of his home crowd in Nottingham, England on 29th September ’91 to a hero’s welcome.?

In the age of no internet, even the winners had to wait till magazines published the score. In the case of Dorian, he had to wait as well. Paul further wrote, ?However, the Temple Gym posse was one of the first to hear any of Dorian’s contest results and word had spread throughout the UK of Dorian’s incredible placing at the O and so the always sold out English Grand Prix had an extra buzz around it long before the athletes walked out on-stage.?
