Anyone have any experience with this? I saw some great results with yoga previously and this is very intriguing to me.

Has anyone tried this? Any feedback?

I still have another 20-25 lbs to lose, but once I do, I was considering this program.

    I haven't tried it but do another power yoga class.

    I've looked into DDP before, and it sure seems like it has a lot of success stories. There's a really inspirational video story on their website.

    Good luck to you, and don't be certain you need to lose 20-25 before starting the program - maybe start now and just modify as needed?

    Thanks!

    Where are you in your progress? My thinking on this plan had been to target this as a maintenance program, which is why I'd like to take another 20 lbs or so off.

    I'm "done" now (at maintenance weight), but I started yoga at the beginning of my MFP time, when I had 20 pounds to lose. I supplemented with cardio, but I know it helped me build muscle. There's another thread in Fitness and Exercise right now about DDP yoga - it's a few pages in at the moment, but you might get more info there.

    I have been doing it since July 1st and am down 29lbs. Have got my brother started and a few guys at work. if you join teamddpyoga.com there is a sample workout on the new members page.

    If you are interested I reviewed the book that started it all Yoga for Regular Guys http://bit.ly/1DDPYoga and also did some research and wrote a history of DDP Yoga http://bit.ly/shDDPYoga1
  • I am just starting tomorrow. I have worked a week with the basic moves. I was wondering if you remember back to what routine variations you did in the beginning. Thanks
