?Who Has the Courage to Make One of These Nowadays?: Gasping at Bodybuilding Beast?s Unreal Physique, Fans Hail Him Better Than All Modern Bodybuilders

Dorian Yates, the genius?bodybuilding prodigy from the UK, paved the path of a new mass monster era. He was the one who introduced the industry to magnanimous size and symmetrical muscles. The gym was The Shadow?s sanctuary and library, where he would experiment and test his physical and mental limits. Along with this, he would soak up all the bodybuilding knowledge that was available to him and give a unique twist to its practical use. The 6-time Mr. Olympia was unbeatable with his cool mind and strategic approach.

Even when he was in the off-season, the perfectionist legend never compromised with his training. In a recent social media post, the English IFBB pro shared a throwback video from the 1996 FIBO Germany and revealed some fun facts about the years gone by.

Yates always turned heads whenever he stepped on stage, even in his off-season. While he did not defeat Lee Haney in 91 Olympias, Yates became the reigning champion in 1992 and held the crown for 6 long years. Going back to the glory days in the 1990s, 61-year-old Yates took to Instagram and posted a video of his guest posing in FIBO Germany in 1996. He had won the Sandow trophy in 96 as well and was at the top of his game. The Shadow, however, was unsatisfied with his body on the Olympia stage and bulked up for the German Grand Prix. Yates assessed his body and aimed for the ideal balance between tight muscles and a full bulk. This bulked herculean physique is what Yates displayed at the guest-posting event at FIBO.

He wrote describing the event, ?Guest Posing at FIBO Germany 1996. Here?s a clip of my guest posing routine at FIBO 1996. I always loved coming to FIBO, the atmosphere generated at this event was nothing short of phenomenal! The crowd each year was absolutely electric!? In the era of no internet, the fans were more enthusiastic about witnessing history in front of their eyes on stage.
