The Man Who Transformed Bodybuilding Forever.
Peter-Patrick7621 November 2019
This documentary is about the life and times of Dorian Yates, who is a legendary bodybuilder known in his prime as The Shadow. This was due to his mysterious bodybuilding preparation, where he would ship off back to his home in England and then appear at the Olympia the next year with a physique that made jaws drop and the impossible suddenly become real in the flesh. "Blood And Guts" film was then later released revealing just how intense he trained. And now "Dorian Yates: The Original Mass Monster" dives deeper to uncover the mindset of the man who transformed bodybuilding forever. The release of the most comprehensive documentary about Dorian Yates, the six time Mr. Olympia champion, who ushered in the era of mass monsters that still continue to this day. Now long since retired, Dorian has revolutionized the sport of bodybuilding with his iconic "blood and guts" training style, a machine-like focus that bordered on the peculiar, and rejecting the California bodybuilding scene that was the dominant influence on the industry from its inception. The documentary chronicles the life and times of his storied career and the new life he created for himself post-bodybuilding.
