[@AmyGent]

First off I love your channel and have been following you for a while. I'm a 59 year old female and this just spoke to me. I have 3 young daughters in their 20's and while they are not lifters I am sharing this with them. So inspirational, so powerful.

[@anitaperez1902]

You Rock ! Don't listen to the judges that need to be replaced! Here's a Topic for you Rachel mclish verses Bev Francis The 1980s controversy. That's where I walked away from my dreams.

[@user-km7tv7pz7m]

@AmyGent DLB is a phony and a perpetual, make believe victim. Look at me....I've overcome so much. Bullshite! You'll be doing well to teach your daughters to be the antithesis of DLB.

[@victor79sanchez]

Topic idea: talk about the struggles (if any) and how you overcame them with competitive bodybuilding, creating a business and maintaining a relationship as beautiful as yours and Robs. Inspiring truly. Thank you!! ❤

[@user-km7tv7pz7m]

@victor79sanchez DLB is the quintessential, perpetual victim.

[@kausarukus]

i appreciate this kind of video! When you talked about trying to work on loving yourself and accepting that is something i struggle with and i try everyday to accept what i don't like and try to change what i can .

[@flyfreeqhrt5484]

I think you are awesome. I don’t think these negative people even understand how dedicated and hard it is to do what you do and look like you do. As far as these negative men my thought is I don’t give a F what you think. The older I get the more I realize it’s unimportant and I don’t have time to reflect on what you think.

[@theresabyers9272]

You are amazing, just amazing! You inspire me to love myself and all the “flaws” I think I have! Thank you for being open and honest!

[@jasminebutton7344]

Yes please do more of these. Got me through cardio.

[@Curlygirl1]

Love this! I love listening to you speak on any topic. Your perspective is unique and super interesting to hear. You are inspiring ❤❤❤

[@megan4506]

More and more by the day I realize why you’re someone I will always look up to and strive to be like. Thank you Dana.

[@bipolarmomandnowwhat]

Awesome video! Dana Thanks so much for sharing ❤

[@robbarabanoff-wd3ef]

Always a positive vibe from Dana and Rob 👍

[@laelae2408]

I needed to hear this I’m a newbie in my own fitness journey and you are such a positive light thank you Dana ❤

[@christyleecassidy4126]

I see many more superpowers from you! I admire and love your positive mindset and compassion you have for others. ❤❤ #gymlife

[@danarichardson8178]

This is so true!!! I can relate so much with you Dana !!

[@sandz1005]

You are my inspiration, Dana! I like you because you're so authentic of what you do. I am your DLB member and number 1 fitness fan.❤

[@dominikabow]

I loved this message so much! It's so important (especially with how hateful people have gotten on social media). I've been a long time supporter of yours... I'm a 40 year old mother of 2 boys under 5 and you've been a huge inspiration to me on multiple levels. My fitness goals are slightly different than yours but I aspire to have your discipline and dedication to my health. I'm also inspired by how you stay true to yourself and never deviate despite some of the nonsense that gets thrown your way. I enjoyed this video as it allowed us to get to know you even more on that personal level. ❤

[@jazzy1768]

Absolute legend! I met you 10+ years ago in Birmingham, United Kingdom. Pure heart and admirable dedication! 💪

[@user-fp8ww3zi3i]

I love you life out look you have been such an inspiration. I'm almost 45 and starting my journey to weight loss, making me like myself again. THANK YOU. I wish I could get to the momentum event!!!! It sounds like a life game changer. Keep being you. You are amazing and beautiful

[@wurmzzlife]

I've followed you since 2013 or 14. Its been a LONG TIME lol I even got the chance to meet you & Rob at the Arnold in 2015. I don't pull motivation from others, I've always been one whose self motivated. But still to this day, just by being YOURSELF you inspire me. I've been bodybuilding&powerlifting since 2014. I don't compete but do it because I love it. But you have always been that one person for me that when I feel like shit about myself, I go to. You've changed my life in so many ways. There is no one like you, there never will be. And thats why YOU are so powerful. Thank you for ALWAYSSSS being true to yourself because you've made more of an impact than any other fitness influencer or competitor has and ever will❤❤

[@antoinettesarracino5678]

Thank you for your podcast and for sharing how to deal with negativity. You and your your husband are inspiration and motivation, both give in the videos. Blessings to you both. Keep it up.

[@ceciliapuliti6043]

Thanks Thanks Thanks ❤❤❤ you are such an inspiration 🙏🏽

[@michaelcbyers]

[@alinaloehr3852]

I love these! I don't have a topic idea but I just like getting some inspo to keep going 💪

[@brandye_tiff]

You're such an inspiration...thank you🤘🏻

[@Herrera76]

You are pure inspiration and motivation for many people from many parts of the world, I assure you that. A very recent follower of yours, but watching all the videos and catching up. I even think about asking him for a price for personal training. Continue at that good level and know that no one will take away that authenticity and quality of what you are and do. A hug.

[@YourVeganNeighbor]

I just love you and your message. I’ve been following for a while now and this message brought me to tears because I feel it so much. I don’t want to conform to please someone else or others. I’m ok with my muscles and not having big boobs and whatever. I’m almost 60 and work really hard at my health and fitness. I’ve had the kids and the life where I was devoted to everyone else but me. Now, I’m devoted to me myself and I and I’m gonna rock it til I die. Thank you so much for being who you are to not only yourself but to others you inspire. ❤❤❤❤

[@szefowaod_wagi]

You are just the best❤ great you have never conformed ❤ I would live you talking about staying committed and what are your practices to stay on track when life distracts you, life, holidays happen. ❤

[@debracourtemanche-ht9he]

Thank's Dana, ❤your videos, you are always a learning lesson for me.

[@thelmafullmer6867]

My son a veteran Marine attended the Warhouse Gym events in PA and loved it!

[@Cass8907]

Dana, Thank you so much for this! I’ve followed you for probably the last 8-9 years you’re a true inspiration. Thank you for the content you post. I can’t tell you enough how many times I’ve gone back to a video of yours just to get inspiration on my good & bad days. Keep pushing the limits. 🩷💪🏽💯

[@laurenlong3942]

I listened to this while in the gym and subscribed immediately. I appreciate the genuineness of your channel and energy. Could you possibly talk about motivation, hormones, and/or family influences?

[@Cin.dutchtraveler]

You are a super women! So powerful and thank you for this advice. Keep going🚀 You are such an inspiration!

[@valbirkner8131]

This was exactly what I needed to hear right now. I've been in grief mode from losing my dad, also had 3 major surgeries in the past few years, raising 3 kids etc.. the chaos has me in a dark place. It's really hard to put yourself out there again. Your advice hit home. I'll definitely be listening to this again. Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing your superpowers. 💪🫶

[@samblack727]

The thing I love best about you is that you didn't conform. I admire and respect you SO much for that. Thank you for being an amazing, and beautiful role model for women.

[@user-km7tv7pz7m]

@samblack727 "The thing I love best about you is that you didn't conform." Are you for real! Little miss exogenous androgens built her fame and wealth by conforming. She's just really good at appealing to assclowns who can't see it. Btw.....you're one of the many assclowns who bought it.

[@serisingh]

I love your podcast-y type videos!

[@andrevanvilsteren5355]

Great video and well said Dana👍💯.

[@murdog04]

Take if from a 54 yo male. Dana, you are amazing and beautiful both inside and out. You are an inspiration to everyone who follows you. Most people who are hateful are just angry about their own life position. Let that run off like water off a ducks back. Love your message! Thanks so much for sharing.

[@victordelagarza4330]

Appreciate your honesty, and your chit chatting. I like the idea of a nutritionist that's exciting. My topic of choice would be exercises with a bad lower back and other body injuries

[@hydrogirl53]

Powerful message, Thanks

[@user-vs8xs1wd8m]

Hi there from down under (New Zealand). Love yourself for who you are, most of us do, Stuff the trolls they have issues you don't. Your a goddess in my eyes and a tremendous inspiration to us all. Love your work ethic and your so down to earth, Don't ever change a thing. Stay true to you, we got ya back. A true fan for life of both you and Rob. Take care!!!

[@dorothyzimmers206]

Thank you Dana❤

[@angelaalmodovar194]

I wish I could train with you, but you’re not on the East Coast! But you are my motivation to get back in the gym 💪🏽

[@ak-zw8jv]

Love these types of videos! I dont have topic ideas but maybe something on nutrition? I agree thats where most people including myself struggle.

[@Angela-di9jy]

Amen to everything u said!! I've been watching u for years and u have always inspired me! You're gorgeous and I wish u would do a video on your hair. I'm in my forties and dye mine black so I'm curious how often u have to dye it or what u do if a gray comes through here and there lol but I LOVE your beautiful hair.

[@Arnold87114]

A lot of love 🖤 from Amsterdam 🇳🇱 Keep it up girl 🖤💪💪

[@marcuschandler6931]

Never change thank you respect.

[@OriginalCynContent]

Loved this format! I hope you do more. What about as a topic speaking on how you guys juggle so many different businesses?

[@charlesshea5890]

Thank you for sharing

[@Goldie71142]

You’re such a cool chick! I love the confidence you exude! ☺️💪🏾

[@donnacuesta7097]

Awesome way to look at the negativity. Thanks for that. ❤

[@MiguelIlianaRodriguez]

So happy to hear about the nutritionist YESS

[@kathrynderiu1328]

Thanks for this Dana, I struggle with liking myself and there are parts of me I can change so that I will actually start liking them . Everything rings true with what you talked about. I hate negativity online but ur right, these guys with cats have a problem ! I would love to know where your hat is from and a topic I would love to discuss is regarding just getting started, taking the first step ❤

[@amypreugschas2952]

This is amazing!! 1. What are the top say 5 machines/equipment (without money being a issue) a must have in the gym you'd like 2. What made you get into horses and riding. 3. When you coming back to Canada haha!

[@JamesRose10]

Loved it!

[@alejandranixon8826]

OMG I want to come!! That would be awesome!! Please let us know how to get tickets!!! Hubby and I have been following you forever and we would love to be there💪🏽💪🏽

[@DanaPurgaru]

Congratulations for staying true and consistent! And remember that only a powerfull man can love a powerfull woman.

[@yssj04]

You are a true inspiration, you have changed lives, mine in particular. Some people speak from a place of insecurity. Stay strong mentally and physically. ❤

[@Zfit337]

Awesome video ❤

[@alaskawolves]

Yes! More content like this please. Talk about nutrition please. Ty!

[@sandraperez1145]

I love your channel and yes you should do more sit chat

[@grahamprice4781]

Don’t have a cat but love your content keep being u is all I tell myself so tx enjoyed post

[@lisaball1701]

Really appreciate the energy put forth towards your content all of these years. Could you talk about how you do find the motivation to share? Maybe what started it all?

[@madisonnorrie9749]

Awesome video! Thank you for sharing all of that. Would you be up for diving into the subject of body dysmorphia and how that changes as you change in the gym. I am seeing mad progress from your workouts! It’s funny, with that I want to cover up the leaner I am. The mind in relation to the outer transformation is an interesting part of it all. What’s your experience with that? Keep at it Dana, you’re incredible!

[@missblackman5656]

Love love, I remember starting to Watch Dana back in the day I was in that era of being a muscly girl and not many girls in the gym were ! she was the first woman I saw and was like yes yes finally ! followed her for over 10 years and still is my fav athlete :) she never changes with her approach and humbleness . I would love to come and hang out but im all the way in the uk ... Big up Dana :)

[@tesstimmons422]

Ohhh Momentum sounds awesome!!!!🎉🎉

[@onevandaler]

I am with this style of video, no topics to provide yet. Just letting you know that i too am also a YES! You are dope af.

[@warriorprincess-jw5xt]

My favorite from day one! Admired your physique ❤when you first started youtube! Too many haters in the world.

[@JonnyBravoTV]

Great video and topic and F the trolls.

[@DumpsterMarcus]

no lie i have been following you guys since you started on KZbin!!!! LOVE both of you guys' energy and kindness and all-around fun people! Met you guys at an event and you guys are the nicest people!! Keep killin it!!! much love!!

[@LindsayElizabeth-bm7tv]

You should do these lives in DLB Daily! I love mindset trainings and personal development/learning

[@kimberleyzammit8377]

❤❤you’re so amazing

[@shanewinters3009]

This awesome! Where can I get the same gear you’re taking? Keep up the great attitude!!!❤

[@melgilliard2641]

Tips for staying motivated. ❤❤

[@Andrea-ms5qk]

Yes, "babble" more because I think we need your voice and training in this space. Bring on the wisdom 🙂 Topics, How to remain disciplined through tough times. Training myth busters Training differences for various generations Thanks!

[@Lunalane567]

Love you Dana!!!!!!! I gotta be honest one time I sent you a mean comment because I was projecting my insecurities on you. I’m sorry. I think that was 10 years ago or moreee I just wanted to be you!!! I got help a long time ago and now I’m still following you girl you are amazing amazing amazing!!!!!! Love you!!!!!!!

[@G_Geedup]

This video was a full 10pk of Nuggets! And we are hungry - Yes absolutely more! 🙌🏽🔥

[@lisapadilla896]

Oh.. that would be amazing to give help with nutrition

[@mirandacollins7]

This is so true and relatable. I used to workout twice a day; I was in crazy shape & was so HAPPY AND PROUD of what I looked like, but soon as I started posted my pics or videos the HATE comments took over. People would say wow you must have a cock, are you trans? where's your boobs? It was so stressful; I went down hill sold all of my equipment and everything. Now that I look back I am like wow I wish I had someone to tell me about how it was a superpower and not to feel so emotional about it. I am now starting AGAIN in fitness. ughhhh it's draining because I am so out of shape now, but I am on the DLB Daily to get the work done!!!!! you look awesome Dana!! always have !!! hard work has paid off.

[@MsGechi77]

If I had one day of your energy it would last me a month. Tiny&Mighty 💖

[@lucasanselmopowerbuilder]

great video champ

[@connierichards2875]

Love the process - my fav shirt of FNF ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉

[@lisagersna9520]

I topic I would be interested in would be how your mindset changes when you are no longer focusing on a goal of competing. What kind of goals do you set to keep you motivated? ❤ thanks for sharing

[@sandycurry80]

Oh man. I love you.🥹

[@bertyblaze]

Dana, love this video and this format. You dropped gems on this one. The "Superpower" reframe is sooo good, I hope people caught that. Also Kudos to Rob for that insight. My question, are you an introvert? I ask because quite a few KZbinrs have an extravertive persona when in reality, the camera kind of acts like a buffer or space between them and the outside world. Part two is, if you are an introvert, how are you intentionally nurturing your inner circle friendships? Are you intentional or are you like me, you get me when you get me. You also mentioned being gone for the month of January, so to circle back to the question, are you intentional even when you are away? Curious if you deal with this. If not, please carry on with this format. I really enjoyed your perspective.

[@angelicaadkins2567]

Dana, just want to say I LOVE YOU and everything you stand for! Can you consider doing an episode on overcoming yo-yo dieting and inconsistency? I am pregnant and miss lifting heavy. I always struggle with staying consistent in the gym with my busy schedule. I’m a mom of 2, a wife, and a full time nursing student. I want to go back to lifting but I’m scared I might hurt myself in pregnancy. Do you have any advice? LOVE YOU! 😘- Angie

[@angelicaadkins2567]

Can you also do a make up tutorial?? You always look so pretty! 🥰😍

[@jaredb9909]

I watch your channel cause I like your workout tips and content but I wouldn’t mind seeing a vid like this one where you talk about your thoughts on marriage and relationships cause you seem to have a real loving partner and I’m sure there’s lots of people like me who struggled to find that in life that would respect and like to hear your thoughts

[@shanedevlin6097]

Your like a super human, you don't need to change anything about yourself or your life.

[@kiwietsbehrens]

I have 1 more topic for you. Is it so imported to use supplements when build muscle or can I do it without supplement? Would there be a big difference

[@deannashannon6384]

Love these types of videos, Dana. But I have to ask, what's wrong with having cats? LOL!

[@erincolpitts3459]

When you first got started into bodybuilding how long did it take for your lifting and your diet to became in-sync? Like was there ever a time that maybe you fell off the diet side but were still consistent with the gym? Or vice versa?

[@garettmcmahan2140]

Please, where can we find more info on tickets for the May event??!

[@ticalhoun]

I’ve been a follower for many moons! Topic ideas - gym etiquette, stop lifting with ego and why (which you’ve said a few times), and let’s stop the hatred towards women lifters! The era of passive, skinny twigs is over 😊

[@kitkatabolic2344]

Topic ideas: -pros and cons of prep when you competed -pros and cons of offseason -eating disorders, did you suffer from any? How many people in the fitness industry suffer from them? -sports you never did but have a lot of respect for and why? -things you know now that you wish you knew when you were competing in bodybuilding -what’s a lesson you learned from a fan? Not a famous fan.

[@ginger6803]

Oh, there was a request for topics.. if you don't mind sharing at some point how you are dealing with training splits and/or adaptations being a female athlete? I feel like the older get, the more hormones take over, and my energy and my power output vary greatly through the 4-week cycle. Is it something you have to deal with as well? And if yes, could you please share how you adopt your training based on your cycle and how you maintain your outstanding performance at all times.

[@maxineporteous3118]

The negative men must have been jealous that you have better upper body muscles than them! 😅 Would you consider talking about how to deal with food cravings as im 56 and deep in menopause symptoms but my food cravings drive me nuts and im trying to lose the menopause middle that has appeared 😢 and sorry that im late to the party. I am so happy i found you and i wish I'd started my journey years ago. Thank you for being you. X

[@dorothyzimmers206]

Could you do one on being physically restricted but still trying to lift etc.
