After six months of the treatment, he narrated the benefits and said, “Giving you a six-month update on the stem cell treatment a lot of people asking. The main thing is that I got a bone on bone arthritis on my right hip from all the lifting over the years.”

While speaking about the improvement, he explains, “I would say it’s not 100% but big improvement maybe 50 or 60%.” Yates also apparently had problems in his shoulder and elbow, which improved exponentially after the treatment. He said, “I had some in the shoulder and elbow as well.” He also feels a “general sense of well-being and looking fresher,” and his skin feels fresh. He has given updates about his treatment previously as well and talked about the one-month mark after he started the treatment.

Dorian Yates has improved his health with stem-cell treatment

The IFBB pro recently gave a monthly update on his treatment for arthritis. According to Yates, the one-month mark showed a slight improvement: “So after one month, I estimated my hip pain discomfort and lack of mobility to improve by 20%.” 

The Shadow explained the three-month improvement and said, “Now we are at the three-month mark. I would say it’s around maybe 40%.”  And now, at the six-month mark, he’s feeling much better, and the improvement is almost 60%. This is good news because the veteran bodybuilder wanted to avoid any form of surgery and his health to other forms of treatment. 

The 61-year-old still works out every day despite retiring in 1997. He is still a veteran in the bodybuilding world, and young bodybuilders look up to him. He does yoga and Pilates as well as cardio, even when going through a stem cell treatment. What do you think about his tenacity? Tell us in the comments below.
