i met him a few weekends ago at Penthouse in Leicester Square... He's really awesome guy, took the time to have a quick chat when he didn't have to and he gave me a few tips which was very kind of him.

A very aggressive, no nonesense approach to bodybuilding... BLOOD AND GUTS style!
Awesome attitude and true grit spirit. I always think of dorians dvd when i train, no bullsh1t, just get in there and get it done!

i've started to try and train like he does, using the positive and taking advantage of the negative... Slow, controlled, good form and it seems to be working, i'm seeing some results which are encouraging. Blood and guts style all the way!

I went to Dorians seminar in Wigan years ago. Its always funny when lads are dying to ask about gear. One lad plucked up the courage and asked, 'Hi Dorian, what do think of Sustanon?'.  
Dorian smiled and said, 'I'm well beyond sustanon and things like that!'.  
Smart answer, but it does make you think though!

Im with you on that! Without Dorian competing, things just aint the same anymore. Maybe becouse he is from Birmingham England, or maybe becouse he was THE WORLDS No1?
In my eyes the 'O' lacks excitement compared to when he was winning all the time.
The only way to bring REAL excitement back (for me) is for another british guy to win!

Jay has great shape but looks kind of squishy, as most top pros are!? Too much of a good thing can spoil what you are trying to acheive!
Whatever guys are trying to do to stay full is bluring there condition, without this they would be smaller, harder and less bloated. Everyone is going for size and its making the guys physiques looking less apealing in my opinion!
I'm sure i dont have to tell them that less is more!

I agree, they need to start going for that granite look and stop worrying about the size so much. When you are shredded you give off the illusion of actually being bigger than you are. Look what happened to Ronnie, he was trying to be near 300 pounds for Mr O and he came out looking mess compared to previous years.
