This was published 2 years ago, when he was 57. I quote the parts I liked the most. https://www.muscleandfitness.com/fl...-marijuana-weight-loss-and-spiritual-healing/ Now, 22 years since his last Olympia win, Yates is on a completely different path—one that emphasizes yoga and Pilates, marijuana, and ayahuasca [an herbal brew that elicits hallucinations]—and is adamant on sharing it with others. You’re 57 years old. What does your training look like now? I do yoga, I do Pilates, and hiking, bicycling, and swimming. You know, cardio stuff. I don’t do the heavy training because I can’t really, but I also don’t need too. I have great cardio, mobility, and flexibility—way better than when I was 30. How much do you weigh now? I weigh 225. I was 260 pounds in contest shape. How are you teaching others in real life? I’m running these ayahuasca camps out in Costa Rica now at a place called Sultara. You go there for a week, and you take the medicine four times a week. You’re on a special diet, and you have shamans, psychiatrists, and medicine healers. It’s a healing center. I’ve seen people literally change their life, like, “Fuck this job. This is what I want to do.” I plan to continue that. Aside from your bodybuilding career, what do you want your legacy to be? [Being] Mr. Olympia is a part of my experience, a very important part of my life, but it doesn’t define me. That’s not who I am. I can be, and am, a lot of other things as well. I hope to keep inspiring people to improve themselves and to be more in touch with their spiritual selves. We’re just getting started.
I guess he's pampering himself after beating his body into submission for so many years. I understand why he doesn't want to lift punishing weights, but I am surprised that he has apparently given up resistance training altogether.
