Dorian Yates

So I was coming down, coming down, coming down, thinking I'd get, you know, more shredded.

Maybe I did a little bit, but I realized, analyzing, because we don't have no iPhone or nothing, right?

But I used to take pictures every week, take the camera roll,

to the, you know, wait for them to develop it and all that.

And then look, how do they look?

And I looked at 92, six weeks out.

I said, I'm pretty much contest ready then.

But I just kept dieting, dieting.

So I sacrificed a lot in 92 and I determined that I wouldn't do that in 93.

I still did a little bit because I tend to overdo things, right?

So 93, I would say I put on six or seven pounds of muscle.

As a Mr. Olympia, this is outstanding, right?

Because you're already on a high level.

But I didn't sacrifice 10 pounds of muscle that I wasted the year before.

So it appeared that I put on 17 pounds of pure muscle in a year.

I didn't.

I just simply didn't sacrifice as much as I did the year before.

So it was a great year of progress.

And the pitches that were taken in 92 were taken a week after the contest.

So I had lost that muscle.
