Well, hey there. Welcome to the Strong and Sculpted podcast. This is me, your host, Kim Constable.

And this podcast, of course, is about all things strong and all things sculpted. And I'm kind of like tripping over my words a little bit here because I am so

excited for what is about to come. Today I am interviewing none other than world famous bodybuilder

Dorian Yates. Now, if you don't know who Dorian Yates is, let me just tell you a quick story.

Whenever I first started

training with my trainer, Mark Getty, I remember that Mark put me through a leg day that caused me

maybe five, you know, four, five, six exercises per training day. You're only maybe training four or

maximum five days a week if you split your leg days. But the principles of high intensity training

is that you go to concrete muscle failure in your final set. So you're basically overloading the muscle,

you're stimulating it in such a way that causes it to grow. Now, Mark first became aware of high

intensity training through following Dorian Yates. In fact, I would go as far to say that

Dorian Yates is kind of one of Mark's or not any only one of Mark. Dorian Yates is Mark's

bodybuilding idol, okay? So whenever I first started training with Mark, you know, I was asking, well,
