Yamagishi has not competed since the 2020 Olympia. He recently joined the Muscle and Fitness show The Menace Podcast where he was asked about his future. This is when Yamagishi expressed that he is retired.
“Yeah, I am retired. I’ve done everything I wanted. The last show I did was 2000… I think it was 2020… Yeah I did it but you know… During the prep I knew this was going to be my last show. I was happy that I did but I was just there. I knew I wasn’t, I didn’t belong there Physique wise.”

“Of course, I love being on stage. I love this lifestyle. People ask me when should I retire and I was thinking about it more a couple years ago. Now, to be honest, my physique is better 10 years ago. It’s not better. I was better 10 years ago, for sure,” Hidetada yamagishi told Generation iron.
Bodybuilding was my job. Of course, it still is my job professional bodybuilding, but it’s not making much money for me anymore. I spend more money training and all this stuff. Diet and everything else. I make money from other things. It’s not really my job anymore. It’s more of a hobby and a love. I keep on competing unless one day everything hurts too much to compete.”
