DDP Yoga Review

Sponsored post*

About 6 months ago I watched a YouTube video about a man who had such severe back and knee problems due to his military service that he was unable to walk without numerous braces and crutches.  He was extremely overweight and most people would fall into despair if they had to live this type of life. However, this man discovered DDP Yoga and it completely changed his life.  Watch his amazing transformation in the video below:



What is DDP Yoga? DDP Yoga was developed by former wrestler Diamond Dallas Page. He suffered numerous injuries during his wrestling career and began using workout techniques that would allow him to maintain his incredible physique without causing him pain. DDP Yoga is a hybrid workout that incorporates yoga positions with calisthenics, rehabilitation techniques, dynamic resistance, and breathing techniques for a more challenging and results-oriented workout - all with zero impact.  Dynamic Resistance, any exercise in which a muscular contraction is made without requiring any weights or equipment, is the key to DDP Yoga.

DDP Yoga has the following benefits:

• Body fat loss
• Increased flexibility
• Improved cardio levels
• Pain reduction from previous injuries
• Lean muscle growth
• Core strength
• Reduced joint stress
• Decreased likelihood of future injury

DDP Yoga Review: I have been doing yoga off and on for years and really got serious about doing it a few months ago when I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia. Yoga has really helped increase my energy and decrease pain.  Since I frequently watch the Arthur video embedded above, I was so excited to get the opportunity to try this program myself.  The kit included a book, four discs with multiple workouts on each disc, and a fold-out poster with the core DDP poses.

The workouts are like nothing I have ever tried before. Usually when I try workouts that are not pure yoga, I feel like I am going to drop over dead by the end. DDP Yoga has you working out at a target heart rate so you never feel like you are over doing it. The combination of the stretching with the dynamic resistance is genius  After doing just one rep of each of the "Diamond Dozen" exercise on the instructional video I could already feel the results the next day! I am able to really work my muscles and I feel fantastic after doing the workouts. 

The booklet that came with the program also has a recommended diet that encourages a balance of food groups to maximize energy and help you lose weight. The first day I packed my lunch following this plan my husband was aghast at how much food I was taking to work for just one day.  There is more food then I would typically eat in a day; however, the combination burns off fast!

I have been using DDP Yoga for 2 weeks and I have already lost 3 pounds! My posture is better and my overall pain level is well controlled.  My 9-year-old son has also been doing the videos with me and really enjoys it. I will continue to use DDP Yoga and look forward to continued weight loss, pain reduction, and muscle toning.  I give it very rarely, but this program truly gets my Seal of Approval!

Buy it here: You can purchase DDP Yoga products from their website. Although it may seem like a hefty price, I would recommend the Combo Pack for $99.99. This is the one I reviewed and it is worth every penny. Just think of the money you would save not needing a gym membership!
