@goliathliftzz: My mentor trained at Temple Gym in Birmingham in the 90s. Right during Dorian Yates’ Mr Olympia reign. He started working security and got in an altercation. He had extensive martial arts experience, so he handled it smoothly. That got temple gym bodybuilders attention, who promptly invited him to train there. That was the culture: no excuses, hard core bodybuilding. Train hard or go home. That’s it. Nothing in there was made to motivate you. The atmosphere was the filter itself. You knew right away whether you belonged there or not. And 99% of people didn’t. Dorian Yates built his 6x Mr Olympia physique there, through hyper focus and pushing limits. Where do you see that in modern gyms? #templegym #dorianyates #dorianyatesmotivation #oldschoolbodybuilding #trainhardorgohome
