That's cool man, nice to see a fellow Minnesotan on here.
Regards,
AbramsOh-oh say can you see, by the dawn's early light,
what so proudly we hailed, at the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight, or the ramparts we watched,
were so gallantly streaming.
And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
gave proof through the night, that our flag was still there.
Oh-oh say does that star spangled banner yet wave,
O'er the land of the free, and the home of the brave?

Yea, you should tell him how much you appreciate what he's done for bodybuilding. I wouldn't ask for an autograph though. I don't think he goes to the gym to be attacked by fans.

I lift at the Duluth Clinic Fitness and Therapy Center (in Duluth of course). Anyway, I used to lift at home but I've started finding a need for more cardio equipment plus they have a hammer strength neck machine that I absolutely love.Originally Posted by BIGMANL
It seems really crazy that Dorian Yates would be in Minnesota. That's pretty neat.

Mmmm ... i met Dorian loads of times, trained alongside him when he was going for some O's. Whats he doing in USA - well hes expanding his gym franchise of temple gyms, possibly something to do with them, he will be at gym openings.
You should of said hello, hes the most 'normal' down to earth guy you will ever meet, hes honest and doesnt treat you like your a dumb dude, he says how it is. Nice guy.

To me, Dorian Yates is the closest thing to God walking this earth right now. Awesome that you met him.
