Highly Recommend!
This video saved my mobility. I was in so much pain I first started it. I was seeing a chiropractor, but I kept having horrible sciatica pain. I would get adjusted and feel good, but by the end of the day I would be limping and in pain again. I thought I hated yoga, my experiences in the past have been full of instructors I could barely tolerate listening to and it kind of killed the whole experience for me, but that was not the case with Dean. He treats the moves with functional practicality (as I prefer), leads you through them with precise guidance, offers modifications, explains how the moves are helping you and what you should be looking for, and I felt relief within 2 days. At the end of the first week I was pain free. It was amazing. This dvd literally saved my quality of life. I cannot recommend this video or this instructor more.

Good video & instructor...but need to start even slower.
Very good video and work out, but a bit out of my ability for a beginner for over 70. If your a total beginner...and have fibromyalgia...and other stretching nerve problems...all I can say is take it very slow. But he does a very good description of each exercise...so a good instructor. I think starting slower with chair yoga is preferable for just starting and growing into this workout. Getting on the floor and getting back up...these are considerations.

This program helped me survive the pandemic.
In March 2020, my local Rec Center closed for pandemic lockdown. At that time I was enrolled in a yoga class meeting three times per week. I was also doing treadmill every day and exercise machines for my arm and leg muscles. I was intent on keeping up with my yoga practice and otherwise keeping my body in good shape. At 80 years old, I realized I would lose muscle mass rapidly, so I had to do something to keep that from happening.I had developed reasonably good eating habits and enjoyed having weight appropriate for my bone structure. I owned a treadmill and some gym equipment, so I could rely on that. For yoga, I returned to a collection of yoga DVDs I had accumulated in prior years. But I found that the instructors in these CDs paid little attention to the fundamentals of each yoga posture, as my instructor at the Rec Center had done. Instead, the practice moved quickly from one posture to the other without explaining how the body should be placed, or which muscles should be engaged. I became concerned that I might injure myself.Realizing my dilemma, my husband started looking for alternative programs without my knowledge, and one day presented me with the Yoga Fix program. Upon seeing the muscled-up young man on the cover, I assumed the yoga would be too demanding for me. Fortunately, I overcame my preconceptions and tried it our. I loved it from day one. And loved it even more for all five days of the program.The instructor, Dean, demonstrates each posture, telling the student exactly how to place their body, and exactly which muscles to use. The act of tensing the correct muscle to achieve the posture and holding it for a period is actually isometric exercise, and has the effect of strengthening and stretching the muscles. I performed the yoga practice an average of six times per week for three years and counting. As a result, my muscles mass has actually improved, as has my posture.Thank you Dean!

Very usable
I have only used the first workout but am really impressed with the gentleness of the workouts as well as the patience of the instructor. Definitely looking forward to carrying on into the balance of the workouts.

SENSATIONAL FOR ALL ESPECIALLY OVER 50
THIS PROGRAM IS OUTSTANDING FOR ANYONE WANTING TO CONDITION, STRENGTHEN, AND STRETCH MUSCLES; OUT OF SHAPE MUSCLES THAT LEAD TO JOINT PROBLEMS LIKE BACK PAINS.MY WIFE AND I ARE IN OUR MID-SIXTIES, AND WE ARE VERY ACTIVE, BUT NOT SO MUCH IN THE ARIZONA SUMMERS. THIS PROGARM ALLOWS US TO MAINTAIN CONDITIONING, AND EVEN STRENGTHEN DURING THE DOWN SUMMER MONTHS. YOU CAN GO AT THE PACE THAT IS COMFORTABLE FOR YOU. IT IS NOT A COMPETITON, AND IT WORKS. NAGGING BACK, SHOULDER, AND NECK PAINS ARE GONE. EVEN THOUGH THIS IS ADVERTISED FOR BEGINNERS, WHICH IT IS, IT ALSO WORKS FOR THOSE THAT ARE NOT BEGINNERS BY ALLOWING YOU TO PUSH HARDER INTO THE EXERCISES. WE SET THIRTY MINUTES A DAY ASIDE TO WORK OUT, AND IT HAS MADE ALL THE DIFFERENCE IN THE WORLD TO OUR OVERALL CONDTIONING. WE ALSO PURCHASED HIS OTHER DISCS... YOGA BOOST, AND BETTER BACK YOGA. WORTH THE MONEY, WORTH THE TIME. COULDN'T BE HAPPIER WITH THE RESULTS.
