  • How got Holyfield a Heavyweight?

    I have seen some old pics from him as a cruiserweight were he looks so small. At the douglas fight he added muscles and looked like another one.
    I know that he later used a special workout designed from Doctor Fred Hatfield, PhD. But this he did as he was a heavyweight yet.

    Anybody knows which workout or strategy he followed.

    Eat big. Sleep big. Lift big.

      And it helped that Potatoes wasn't his trainer.

        He always had a big frame, at 6'2 1/2". He just filled it out with specialized weight training. Michael Moorer's career at heavyweight would have benefited as well from similar training.

          I saw an old picture from him within this forums and I cannot name this a big frame considering.

          Eat, sleep, lift is is logical, but what kind of routine?

              Wasn't Holyfield working with former Mr. Olympia Lee Haney at one point?

                  he wanted balanced muscles if they are unbalanced you leave yourself wide open to injuries
