(male narrator) the following is a paid presentation brought to you by ddp yoga. before the dvds arrived, i saw arthur's video and when i saw him trying to do this with crutches i thought, "okay i can do this." with ddp yoga i dropped 185 pounds i lost 20 inches off my hips. that's never happened to me before. (male #1) i saw arthur's video and i was going, "man, this guy he's lost about 150 pounds doing this." i was at 325 and doing ddp yoga i've lost over 92 pounds feel 20 years younger, energy level's jacked up. i get to the point where arthur starts sprinting through the park and i lost it. i just wept.
4:31 am
i must have watched that video a couple dozen times. i started ddp yoga at 601 pounds, so i've lost 180 some odd pounds. a year ago i couldn't walk to my mailbox. a year ago i couldn't get off my couch and yesterday i ran a 5k and it's because of ddp yoga. ♪ what are you doing? (somber music) when i got out of the service i was sort of on a downhill pathway. i was a paratrooper, which exacts a pretty significant toll on the body. i had several different injuries. i'd been in a few vehicle accidents. i made some bad choices about exercise and i made some bad choices about eating and i gained weight, and my weight made some of my injuries worse. i had a surgery, things did not go well
4:32 am
to the point where they told me i would need to lose weight if i wanted to have another surgery. and i didn't really see how i could lose the weight. i couldn't work out. it's not like i can run. i was too heavy. i have hated things in my life but i don't think i hated anything as much as i hated those braces and those crutches. i was in excruciating pain almost constantly. that was about as low as it got for me. i had totally given up. ♪ (male #2) he sent me those first two pictures with the knee braces and the back brace the canes, and his belly was out to here. and i was thinking, "god how am i gonna help that guy?" (arthur) i started off doing ddp yoga on crutches with the chair with straps, with blocks with anything i could find to help me. ♪ i fell down a lot. ♪
4:33 am
i have lost so much weight that if i don't hold these up they'll fall and i'm not gonna do that right now. but, uh... i'm really pleased with this. i lost just under 40 pounds in the first month. i was feeling so much better. i was moving better. after awhile it got to a point where everybody was noticing. that felt awesome. (bright music) i could not afford to fail. i was not going to send that message to my wife and kids. ♪ here's where i'm at now. ♪ just because i can't do it today, doesn't mean i'm not gonna be able to do it some day. i lost 140 pounds doing ddp yoga.
4:34 am
i've taken over 20 inches off my waist. i've gone from a 54 inch waist to a 31 inch waist. it's improved my life in so many ways. i am more flexible now than i was ever. it's awesome. i am no longer held down. you know when you weigh that much it's like gravity's just holding you down all the time. i feel as good in this body as i have ever felt. ♪ never ever, ever ever, ever quit. (diamond dallas page) i developed ddp yoga because i needed to heal my own body. it prolonged my wrestling career. (driving rock music) you gotta understand something i didn't even start to even try to become a professional wrestler until i was 35. everyone told me i was nuts.
4:35 am
they said i was crazy, they said it couldn't be done. but they were wrong. my career did not take off until i was 40. that was in 1996. 1997 and '98 i was on top of the world and then bang! i blew out my back so badly that three specialists told me my wrestling career was over. i was desperate. i would try anything but when it was suggested that i try yoga to heal my body, i gotta be honest, i wouldn't be caught dead doing yoga. but i needed a solution, and out of that necessity, i developed something that absolutely transformed my life. ddp yoga. now don't let the name confuse you because it ain't your mama's yoga. (male naator) these aren't fitness models or yogis. they're real people just like you. they didn't only lose weight,
4:36 am
they gained amazing core strength, increased flexibility, and changed their lives. they're living proof that ddp yoga works. no matter what your age or fitness level ddp yoga can transform your body so you can own your life. (diamond dallas page) so what's the secret to ddp yoga? there is no secret. ddp yoga is a kickass combo of old school calisthenics rehab techniques, yoga core strength training and most important slow burn dynamic resistance. now, you may be skeptical how a workout with minimal joint impact can burn fat, gain strength, and increase flexibility all at the same time. so let me introduce you to dynamic resistance. everyone here is wearing a heart monitor. and you'll get to see where they're at. we've got kyle at 86 brenda, 77 jason, 86, and brittany at 89. watch what happens when they apply dynamic resistance. and you can try this at home.
4:37 am
i want everyone to slightly bend their knees. your quads have to be engaged here. now, pick your toes up and grip them into the mat. now, your feet and your calves have to be engaged. now stand tall pull those legs together really work that muscle in the middle, that adductor muscle. now tuck your tailbone and squeeze your glutes. two of the biggest muscles in your body your quads and your glutes. that's what we're doing here engaging muscles. now bring your thumb and index fingers together. keep your fingers apart and push. don't let me pull them apart. push your thumb and your index fingers together. look what happens to his forearm his bicep, his pectoral muscles they all have to engage, that's what we're doing here. we're engaging muscles. now, take your arms to the sky do this at home! create that resistance bring your arms out to a "t," clench those fists tight and let me hear you. hulk it out. that's right, baby. attention! shoulders back, chest out. at ease. look what's happened to their heart rate. they're all up like 40, 50 beats. one more time, flex your quads,
4:38 am
flex your glutes reach out and grab the ball, open those fingers wide, take your arms high. reach high! touchdown. come back to diamond cutter, push 'em against each other take it back. arms out to a "t." hulk it out! and attention. at ease. look what's happened to their heart rate. every time you flex or engage a muscle your heartbeat has to engage. there's no running jumping, or lifting. ddp yoga gets you in the fat burning zone literally standing still. come on, you can own this. (female #1) i first learned about dallas january 5th, 2009. i went to the doctor's found out i weighed 345 pounds. all time high. i was really kind of stunned, and i just decided to deal with it the way i always dealt with stress, go home and sit on the chaise lounge with a bag of potato chips and flip the tv on. i was really in denial. it's kind of like how an anorexic thinks that they're fat.
4:39 am
well, i thought i was skinny. everything was harder at that size. getting up and down from chairs, getting in and out of cars. i once had somebody tell me that she didn't want me sitting in her favorite chair 'cause she was afraid i was gonna break it. and talk about humiliating. people kind of looked right through me, you know? and especially to men i didn't really exist. if anyone wants to keep men away just gain weight. it works like a charm. i was so ingrained in overeating. i just thought that's an unbreakable addiction. i said, "all right you know, god, this is it. i'm gonna be 300 pounds the rest of my life." i gave up because there seemed to be no way out. with ddp yoga i dropped 185 pounds. i lost 20 inches off my hips. i went from a size 28 to a size eight. that's never happened to me before. on diets, you know, i would lose a little bit here and there. i'd go down maybe a size or two.
4:40 am
it was always such a struggle. there's nothing like these workouts. i'm stronger i look younger and i feel younger. i'm at an age now where my peers are starting to complain about, "oh, my back, and oh i feel so old, and i'm over 40," and i'm having the exact opposite experience. shopping is fun. it's so nice to not be directed by a well meaning salesclerk to the plus sized department. it's total freedom. i never set out to create a weight loss program. it was just a really awesome side effect. ddp yoga isn't about "hey, look at my abs." you can get those results, but it's not the focus. ddp yoga is more about "hey, look at my life. i'm owning it!" it's all about being fit, flexible, increased core strength, and kickass cardio with minimal joint impact. and it works.
4:41 am
it worked for me arthur, stacey and so many others who do it. (groovy music) ♪ (male narrator) stacey lost 185 pounds. arthur transformed his body lost 140 pounds, and got his life back. these are real people just like you. they didn't only lose weight they gained amazing core strength and flexibility, and changed their lives. diamond dallas page will show you how to get the kind of results you've only dreamed of in the past. with dallas' new workout technique, dynamic resistance, you'll activate more muscles to burn more fat increase your flexibility, and strengthen your core all with minimal joint impact. get started right now with the "diamond dozen" dvd workout where dallas shows you thirteen moves where you can begin to build flexibility and core strength to tone and sculpt your body. next, ramp it up with a 20 minute energy workout. you want energy, you're gonna get it.

(rock music) i remember diamond dallas page,
4:45 am
the larger-than-life rock-star wrestler. and i heard that he'd come up with some form of exercise that was based in yoga. i said, "you know what? i would have never thought of doin' yoga, but it's workin' for these people." and i watched the arthur video there the week before it went viral. and i watched stacey's video. and i said, "well, nothin' else has worked. maybe if it worked for them, maybe it'll work for me." with ddp yoga, i've lost 100 pounds. within 25 minutes, i get ultimate strength building flexibility, and a cardio burn that i could've gotten probably on a treadmill, but it's a lot more fun on a yoga mat. i knew ddp way back, i was a huge pro wrestling fan. to hear his story was really-- it was not only motivating but it sort of gave me cover so when my friends were ribbing me about, "how are you doin' with your sissy yoga," i'd say, "you know diamond dallas page is the one who
4:46 am
put this together," and they're like "whoa, really?" heaviest that i got was about 296. i just ate all the time. i ate at work, i ate at home, i never slept, never worked out and it just--you can do the math on that one. that's a story that doesn't end well. with ddp yoga, i lost 50 pounds i went from a size 42 pant to a 36. ddp yoga is kick-ass cardio. increased flexibility, monster strength building, all with minimal joint impact. okay, now, we're really gonna focus on ery muscle here. slightly bend your knees. look at her quads engage. look at the separation already startin'. now pick your toes up and grip your toes on the mat. now your feet tight. work those calves, really engage 'em. now, we're gonna try to pull those legs together as you straighten your legs. isometrically, you're trying to squeeze 'em together. like steel right now.
4:47 am
tuck your tailbone and squeeze your glutes. so you're workin' your glutes and your quads. the two biggest muscles in your body. now you're gonna reach out don't open your hands yet, just reach out and grab the ball. now i want you to imagine your body's a fire hydrant. when the fire hydrant turns on, boom! look at that tone, it's like steel. look at her forearms look at the lines in her tricep. her delts, her traps. now reach for the sky, touchdown, reach long, reach high, get that separation in your spine. exhale, bring it down. and push those thumb and index fingers together. come on, do it with me at home. inhale, lean it back. bring your arms out to a "t," clench your fists. get strong look at the muscles all over her body, firin'. attention, shoulders back, chest out. look at her hands engaged, tight. at ease. great job, kid. goodness. you see, dynamic resistance replaces the need for bands, weights or gym memberships. i haven't lifted a weight in over eight years, and i'm 57 years young. ddp yoga dynamic resistance
4:48 am
eliminates stress on your joints building muscle and burning fat so you can lose weight. it's really that simple. (female #2) i saw a picture of myself with my friend at her wedding and i was a bridesmaid. i always knew i was big, but i didn't know i was that big and seeing that picture of myself, i didn't like it. (male #3) i always wanted to lose weight i just didn't know how to do it. i wanted to be able to like, go to the mall and just buy clothes like normal people do. i think the ddp yoga has given us a hobby that we've never had before. this has even brought us closer together just every day when we do the workouts. i remember us, like, doing some of the moves and we'd get so discouraged about not being able to do it, but we would work on it and keep working on it and we would eventually get it and we would be like "oh, my gosh look what we can do." (gabe) it's enjoyable now, it's not something that you dread doing. when i first started i weighed 360 pounds and in 16 months i lost 148 pounds
4:49 am
and went from a size 54 pants to a size 36. (brittany) i went from a size 20 jeans to a size 8. (gabe) together we lost over 240 pounds using ddp yoga. (hip hop music) (female #3) i was buying into the idea that all my best years are now behind me, and this is my future, my mother's heart attacks, et cetera, the weight was coming on and it was just accepted that this is what happens to women when they age. and this man, dallas reminded me it didn't have to happen that way if i didn't want it to. so, this is terri at six months from 50. four months, three months two months one month, 50. (terri) so on ddp yoga i lost 64 pounds in six months to turn 50 and i went from-- a 64-pound loss was about six dress sizes so i was 18, 20, and i wore an eight. (diamond dallas page) 51, 52, 53
4:50 am
then she got a brow lift and a boob job bang, she's a little sister. i mean, the perk is i get some really cute jeans now and i think i look good in 'em and, you know i have a good attitude about myself. (diamond dallas page) 56, 57, 58, 59. then we took this shot of terri at 60 so you could really appreciate 61. (terri) when i lost 20 more pounds i lost two sizes. but the whole body changed this is the first time i'm like, lean my waist is, like, 25 inches. i have abs that no grandmother that i know have. but the real feeling is i'm really healthy. i am strong. ddp yoga is a lifestyle. i've been livin' it 12 years. and it makes 61 much easier. this is all a bunch of b.s.
4:51 am
if you don't get off the couch and just do it. we all know what we're supposed to do. i mean, come on. it's just normally too friggin' hard. that's the secret to ddp yoga. i'm tellin' you, just about anybody can do this. take wrestling legend jake "the snake" roberts. he was completely beat up from 37 years in the ring. he could barely move. (jake) i had to have part of my arch removed out of my left foot. then i had knee problems so they operated on my knee. i've had this hip replaced two discs removed out of my neck. that's big. i got atrophy down the left arm. total wrist reconstruction. compound fracture. broken sternum twice i didn't count the broken ribs. my fingers they're still busted up. these are my ligaments that are contracting. in the day we were goin' hot and heavy,
4:52 am
it was a different city every day. except for saturday or sunday, where you did two a day. we'd be at l.a. at two o'clock san diego at seven. next mornin', you'd wake up in omaha at two o'clock, des moines, seven. my longest stretch was, uh i was wrestlin' steamboat and we did 87 days straight. i was-i was-- literally walking dead. ♪ take it back. out to here. now stay with me. i remember this guy. there's jake--there's jake gonna get in the best shape ever from being in the worst. he's gonna be takin' it back up again. it's gonna be awesome, man. i've never felt-- i've never felt like this in my life, man. this is the greatest high i've ever been on. ddp yoga, i've lost 65 pounds so far. a fourth of my body is gone. 65 pounds. you start likin' to look in the mirror. and just everything about you, inside of you, outside of you.
4:53 am
ddp yoga is not a workout, man. it's a life. a new one, a fresh one. somethin' that god almighty you'd have to be insane not to enjoy it. (female #4) i'm a mother of three. i was a single mom most of their life. my oldest is 25. when i had her i was extremely young, bounced back no problems, was smaller than before i got pregnant. so when i had my other two they're 12 and 14. thinking that it was just as easy. it wasn't, so i went through you know, some issues, trying to get rid of the weight. one of my daughters asked me if i was santa claus. well, you know how big santa claus is, i mean. and then the other comin' home from school cryin' because the kids said, you know "is your mom pregnant, is she gonna have another baby?" and that's when i realized. it'll take away your smile. it'll take away your security. your self-esteem is...is... it's just not there. with ddp yoga, i lost 48 pounds. i went from a size 16, which is really huge to a size six.
4:54 am
i could tell a difference in my pants. now, i mean, everything fits, everything looks nice. my whole life has changed. everything about my day has changed. i wake up with a positive attitude, i have self-esteem. i'm happier, i'm easygoing, i'm not uptight and irritated because i'm unhappy with myself. there is no magic pill. i mean, i really believe that the ddp yoga is what it took for me to get to this point. here's the thing. you can do this. if a burned-out wrestler with a broken-down body can do it or a woman who was over 300 pounds for over 20 years can drop 185 pounds and keep it off. or a crippled old vet would could barely walk can lose 140 pounds, and more importantly lose the knee braces the back brace and the canes and run? you really gotta ask yourself, what could you do? (male narrator) these are real people just like you.
