To go from where I was to where I am now in the last three years it seems like a crazy roller coaster ride. I had given up on life. I am a poster-boy now. I showed what you can do with the help of DDP Yoga and that you can still have good times in your life.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>How has it been keeping up with the program:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s not bad. It&#8217;s not hard work because being skinny is good. It&#8217;s about doing the right things and making sure the next day you wake up with a smile on your face because it makes it a whole lot easier. When you start off slow and build up gradually and you do it smart after a while it becomes second nature. Your body starts to really feel good.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>The biggest obstacle in staying so dedicated:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Making the decision to do it was real scary and I&#8217;ll be honest with you I didn&#8217;t think I would last more than a week. I was drinking and doing cocaine every day and to quit that cold turkey was hard. Nobody does that cold turkey, but I did. Once I got started it was actually easy. Each day I just looked at as one day and then another day, then another and it just started to add up and the next you know I&#8217;m on one month, two months, three months and your off.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Standout moments in his Hall of Fame career:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Definitely Mid-South where The Grappler (Len Denton) and I invented the DDT, and of course anytime wrestling Andre (The Giant) was awesome. But Ricky Steamboat was one of the best I worked with no doubt. I enjoyed the time with him. That DDT on the floor in Providence was not a good idea and I tried to warn him but nobody listened to me (laughs). I still have a lot of great moments left. I&#8217;ve been so very fortunate to be in the ring with some of the greatest superstars to ever live.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Working Macho Man Randy Savage and slapping Elizabeth:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It was really strong with Randy. He was really high octane. It was a fight every night but we worked hard and absolutely punished each other. When I slapped Elizabeth, he wanted to kill me but you know what, he wasn&#8217;t the only one.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jake The Snake talks working with Randy Savage, Slapping Elizabeth, Ted DiBiase, Ricky Steamboat, DDP Yoga, and more<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3725,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[47,821],"tags":[158],"class_list":["post-20633","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-tmptow","tag-jake-roberts"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20633","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=20633"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20633\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":20642,"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/20633\/revisions\/20642"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3725"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=20633"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=20633"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/crazymax.org\/newsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=20633"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
