Product Description

Listen up, guys: If you think yoga is just for earthy-crunchy New Agers, think again! Three-time World Champion Wrestler Diamond Dallas Page—one of the biggest superstars in professional wrestling—is here to prove that yoga is for regular guys, too. Chock-full of smartass humor and a whole lot of attitude, Yoga for Regular Guys is an illustrated fitness program that men can relate to—because Dallas understands the things men care about: improved strength and endurance, a better sex life, reduced stress levels, and (maybe most importantly) access to ridiculously hot yoga babes. Every chapter offers clear, step-by-step explanations of yoga poses and circuits—along with hilarious full-color photos of "regular guys" in action. Written in conjunction with Dr. Craig Aaron—an athletic trainer for numerous members of the NFL, NBA, and World Wrestling Entertainment—Yoga for Regular Guys is a comprehensive fitness program that's fun, irreverent, and empowering. So what are you waiting for? --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great practical introduction to Yoga, November 13, 2005
This review is from: Yoga for Regular Guys: The Best Damn Workout on the Planet! (Paperback)
Diamond Dallas Page's "Yoga for Regular Guys" is a very well illustrated intro guide to yoga, focusing on only a few major patterns, but spending a lot more time illustrating them and talking through how to get the most out of them than many other yoga guides I've perused. Its pragmatic approach makes it an ideal intro guide for guys (or women) who want to get into Yoga but have no idea where to start.

5.0 out of 5 stars Yoga? For Guys? It's true!!, December 2, 2005
By Kevan Combs "Kevan" (USA, Florida & Cali) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Yoga for Regular Guys: The Best Damn Workout on the Planet! (Paperback)
OK, I'll admit that I was very hesitant to try yoga at first. I have taken martial arts for 20 years & had always considered Yoga to be more of a sissy thing. Well, Dallas Page changed my mind- & Yoga really whopped my @$$!

Yoga For Regular Guys is probably the BEST work out you can get. It works every muscle- even ones you didn't know you had. It can really build your body & boost your confidence. You don't need to be in amazing shape to try it either. The beauty of YRG is that it will sculpt your body for you- if you are willing to at least try. YRG takes you step-by-steo through the entire process. Nothing is left out, even nutrition & the proper ways to get the most out of your food are strategically explained. Who wouldn't want to improve not only their body? But it also (as corny as this sounds) clears your mind too.

Hey! If I guy like DDP can do yoga & look cool, then no one will laugh at you. 'Cause one of the most dominant athletes swears by it. The sexy yoga babes don't hurt either.
Yoga For Regular Guys, it's a Good Thing!!

5.0 out of 5 stars the best guide to yoga for beginners, January 3, 2007
By Naveen Vennam (New York, NY USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Yoga for Regular Guys: The Best Damn Workout on the Planet! (Paperback)
I've been recommending this book to everyone (including women) as a good introduction to yoga for 3 reasons: (1) the routines are simple to figure out and do at home, thus promote consistent practice; (2) the routines are fairly dynamic, which are good for holding a beginner's attention span (I once saw a "beginner" yoga book that included a five-minute trikanasana - not a great way to hook someone new imo), (3) the routines have a nice general emphasis on loosening tight areas of the body, which allow you get yourself ready for other yoga (if you ever feel compelled to change). After 6 months with this book, I think one would definitely want to expand a little - either by going to local classes or for someone more serious, using a book like David Coulter's Anatomy of Hatha Yoga to fine tune their practice with a better understanding of positions in this book and perhaps by adding new ones. Although ok to practice on your own, I will strongly recommend that everyone should try to go to at least a class or two when they are starting out, because an instructor can make sure you are starting on the right foot. Once you know what you're doing, alone at home is fine.
