[@cmos2010]

Awesome! Just ordered DDP Yoga. No more gyms, jumping around, bands and weights. Gentle fitness...gentle strength.

[@bkohler89]

do u still do ddp yoga?

[@adamrobinette139]

I had my SI joint kicked out sparring in 2012. And once it was put back in but the chiropractor, he told me it was like a sprained ankle where the ligaments would be weaker and I would have to be extra careful. It would keep going out at least once a month, at the stupidest times, like leaning the wrong way to pick up even a 10 pound dumbbell. I had to stop lifting altogether. Then I discovered DDP Yoga. This was 2013. I did it exclusively for a year, and my SI joint never went out during that year. Second year, I kept doing it four days a week, and added in a day of weight training. SI joint never went out. Third year on, I was able to go back to lifting again, three days a week, and doing DDP Yoga three days a week. SI joint stayed strong. Last fall I had actually gotten lazy for a month from DDP Yoga and guess what happened? My SI joint went out for the first time in 5 years. Even then, everything around it was so strong yet flexible that a. It didn't lay me up, and wasn't nearly as painful and b. Once I was popped back in, I went back to my three days a week DDP Yoga and it's been fine ever since. Incredible program. It's everything they say it is.

[@ElmoZaPimp]

Honestly before DDP I would never have tried Yoga but i am glad I started doing it.

[@SungtaeBookLover]

I want his hair! Looks like he has a mohawk in the back of his head, too. I am glad Jericho took up DDP Yoga. I should try it one day;

[@wanetawentz9162]

Not 1 DAY......NOW!!!!

[@AdamBarkerThe]

imagine just walking into the office, look to your left and see Chris Jericho doing some yoga in the back corner...good times.

[@wanetawentz9162]

Chris....i must say youre a sweetheart!!!💕💕💕💕much love n happiness to u n ur family....loves n hugs!!!! From this old gal!!!🙋

[@Hrollief1]

Yeah, he was looking old and heavy his last go in WWE. However, this time around he is looking fit and young. I was happy to see Scott Hall and Jake Roberts took up DDP Yoga too...they both are looking way better. I hope one day Cody Hall (Scott's son) makes it to the WWE and teams with Curtis Axel...I think they would be an awesome second generation tagteam.

[@the21stsergeant]

Chris and Rich Ward personally recommended DDP Yoga to me a couple of years back.. never looked back, thanks!

[@SkyGizmmo]

For thousands of years healthcare in the was herbs and exercise. Qi Gong not unlike Yoga. Had prescribed movements and postures to restore health or heal injury. Chris, bro....nice message, great attitude, with a sincere testimonial. Thanx

[@venkatraghavan7243]

YOGA FOREVER YOGAM MEANS TAKING CARE OF BODY AND SOUL.

[@athul7545]

from 🇮🇳 our country

[@i3oosted]

wtf does this guy not age? B. button is that you?

[@ElmoZaPimp]

i3oosted it’s because he is active and doesn’t slouch around eating junk food

[@MrMuaythai84]

[@bkohler89]

I swear this guy DOES NOT AGE! He's 45 but he still has the face of a 30 year old

[@RedgraveKennedy]

He's aged pretty badly since this video

[@vijaysambyal3927]

Now even worse

[@RustyTiberius]

He looks younger lol

[@Gabriel8415]

He's not lying even before this infomercial came out he was on a podcast interview with a wrestling station he talked about the same thing. I listened to it live the night before his surprise return at the Rumble this year. Its legit

[@athul7545]

THANKU 🇮🇳 🇮🇳

[@svresh]

I'm with you recently took up yoga to woron my core and bad neck, only been 2 weeks but I feel so much better now.

[@suck0rocks]

deedlydeedeedee

[@LuisHernandez-cd4in]

Jericho says what!!! lol wants to look old and have a young body lol he sure dont look like it now days still one of the best

[@rampageclover9788]

"Shouldn't be lifting 300lbs in your late 30's - early 40's" I fucking hate that defeatist attitude so much...

[@bkohler89]

+Rampage Clover I stopped lifting 300 lbs back in 2009. I only lift for the pump (contractions) makes a HUGE difference in the results you're going to get, plus it's easy on your body. People say to me, "ya but you're young, you can do this stuff?" Ya, maybe I could, but I'm being SMART by stopping while I'm WAY ahead

[@rampageclover9788]

Hey that's fine, it's not for everyone...but this "you shouldn't do it because it's bad for you" is kinda ignorant..yeah if you do any form of exercise incorrectly and lazily without educating yourself, it'll will fuck you up. Same goes for yoga if you hyper-extend your elbow or knee joints. It's about training smart...not hard...

[@bkohler89]

true, I agree completly

[@AntZombie121]

how does he still keep his muscle if he doesn't go to the gym?

[@WVsonofliberty]

DDP Yoga uses dynamic resistance to build muscle. You're not lifting weights, but once you do a workout your muscles feel it.

[@ChronoTriggerMusic]

Muscle doesn't just disappear if you stop working out

[@MatiasSeraBaterista]

The use of dynamic resistance is amazing. It's, at times, even harder than lifting weights cause you're using your own strength and muscle tension to make movements that involve the entire body. It is really challenging, but when you're finished with a workout you can really feel you're muscles burning, just like you would with a normal workout, the only difference is that you feel more relaxed, rather than tired. You sweat and your heartbeat feels like pounding, but you don't feel tired

[@vincentjflorio]

Similar to what Matias said, there's something to the resistance exercises. I don't think I'll ever be at a Chris Jerico kind of build, to know how or if he can keep that shape going with just that kind of exercise, but I've only been doing DDP Yoga for less than two weeks, and started pushups at the beginning of April, and with that combination I've gained 10 lbs and kept it on after a month and a half. Oddly enough, the DDP has done more to give me definition in that brief time than the pushups by themselves ever could. I'm not qualified to speak on matters of physiology or personal fitness, but maybe if he stays the size he's at that's how his arms react to pushing up a Chris Jerico off the ground?

[@justletuslive]

vincentjflorio Hey sorry to bump these replies but i just tried this today with the dynamic resistance: you have to really really really REALLY flex your entire arm/wrist/finger/shoulders,CHEST, EVERYTHING when you are doing the 'dumbell' curls. *what i did today was a test* i took a 12.5kg dumbell on my right hand and left my left one free: with my left hand i just used dynamic resistance SUPER hard and it got my heart rate up and my arm was feeling it and getting the 'pump'. With the right hand i could curl it and i felt like i could curl it for 100 reps but it wasn't that 'tired' feeling it felt like pain would occur and it would hurt me, i still felt like i am contracting muscles more than dynamic resistance but i eventually preferred to do dynamic resistance over dumbell because its really the same - just no pain.(this is true for everything, you can 'bench press' with dynamic resistance and you can build chest muscle with dynamic resistance). I dont have many weights lying around so i cant build something 'heavier' but i would love to try doing like 30 reps with 16-25kg in one hand and dynamic resistance with another and see how that goes I trained in the GYM for 4 years straight but past month or so i switched to DDP YOGA ITS FUCKING AWESOME!, i am getting closer to standing on my elbows and my goal is to do planche/crow pushups :)

[@kingdaleclarke]

lol his obviously lieing here,

[@agileseo7517]

way to go Jerico and DDP

[@neilphilp9210]

Legend

[@alistahr]

*He's obviously lying here*

[@TheZigzach]

Have you ever tried ddp yoga?

[@LauraPhoenixRutkowski]

Jericho has been singing the praises of DDPYoga for over a year. You see the transformation going from before Dancing with the Stars to now. This was awesome.

[@denniswood9503]

I have been doing some yoga for a little time now just basics really but have noticed a bit of improvement as far as the pain and mobility, I am going to take this to another level and going to invest in a mat and of course DDP Yoga and see what kind of results i can get i have followed your career through out the years and your injury's I have the same issues with my back now as you did been through it all best DR's in the world and all there best solution is send me to a pain clinic, no more in 16 days i will be full on bore with DDP Yoga.

[@vicky881931]

Gym workout is the best part....yoga is kinda girlish....!!!!

[@TheSilencer1776]

Fuck gyms.... they're just meat markets. I'll go to my butcher for that.

[@vicky881931]

meat market???...wtf???....:-o!!

[@TheSilencer1776]

Oh whoops, you're not familiar with that term. Meaning most people are their to either up their egos against one another, or use it to hook up.

[@vicky881931]

m familiar with that term but u r using it in wrong context ...i love gym coz i like building some god damn muscles ....no ego shits and all...!

[@TheSilencer1776]

Cool story bro. So lets compare...... Are you in as good a shape as Jericho, DDP, Stevie Richards, or Ryback? Because they all swear by DDPYoga. His program would knock you on your gym rat ass.

[@heavy666metal1]

no.more gym, yeah right! lifting weight is necessary for build strong muscles special in the back for pain!

[@mcrchickenluvr]

Have you ever done yoga? I have scoliosis. Yoga works better for the pain than lifting weights. That's because it makes your body use ALL of your muscles in the way they were designed to. Weights are good for strength training yes. But what good is it gonna do you if can't even bend down to reach your toes?

[@bkohler89]

+heavy666metal1 Dude, I tried basic yoga a couple times, not DDP's YRG yoga, just regular yoga. After only one workout, my biceps where pumped with blood due to the positions I was putting my body thru.

[@3089280288]

that's why he looks like a marshmello

[@halfbloodswan]

He is getting old you moron, u get more strength then lifting weights.
