Reversing Knee Pain: Ratna Nabhi's Fitness Journey

In this interview for the "Game Changers" playlist, host Dinas talks with Ratna Nabhi, a 55‑year‑old retired public‑sector employee from Delhi, about her severe chronic knee pain that had led her to rely on painkillers and consider surgery. After seeing a Facebook ad for Dynaz Fitness/DFC, Ratna joined the program, which combines scientifically designed strength workouts (including squats and lunges) with mind‑programming sessions. Over 1.5 months she lost 7 kg, reported an 80 % reduction in knee pain, stopped using painkillers, and regained functional mobility (climbing stairs, getting up from chairs). Ratna attributes her success to the program’s structured workouts, music‑driven sessions, and mental rewiring that helped her push past fear and discomfort. She expresses confidence in avoiding surgery, dismisses the need for physiotherapy, and urges viewers to become their own coaches by following the DFC system. The interview ends with a call‑to‑action inviting viewers to register for a masterclass to learn the program.

Welcome, Ratna. Thank you so much for coming to the channel and giving us this opportunity to serve you, guide you, and thank you for sharing your story and inspiring other men and women in the country. Where are you from, Ratna?
Hi, Dinas. I'm Ratna. I'm from Delhi, but basically I'm a South Indian, but I stay in Delhi.
Fantastic. And are you working or are you retired? Are you a homemaker?
I was working. I retired last year in March 2023.
How many years of service did you do?
35 years of service in a public sector Oil India company.
And in the 35 years of your service, Do you think that you had neglected your health tremendously?
Yeah, I have neglected my tremendously from on the work front also and from home front also.
And how, how was your body and how did you feel about your body, about your weight, about your mind, about your aches and pains before you came to DFC?
Actually, before I came to DFC, I had severe, severe, severe, unbearable knee pains. I was unable to— I went for this Ayurvedic treatment, I went to other, other sort of treatments also. But I had severe knee pains and nothing could cure my knee pains. And I used to have a lot of painkillers mainly, and that actually really created a lot of problem for me. Every alternative day I used to have painkillers, and without painkillers, I was not able to get up from the seat where I was sitting. And I used to walk with a limp also. But after I joined DFC, hats off, and I am very indebted to you. After that, after doing your scientific workouts, for the last 1.5 months, I have not taken any painkiller. I am able to get up from the bed easily, and from the chair also I can get up easily, and I walk, I climb stairs and get down the stairs too, and I'm feeling very, very relieved.
Fantastic.
In spite of the doctor telling me to go for an operation, I had not gone for the operation. After reducing 7 kilos after joining DFC, my pain has reduced at least 80%. Wow. And now I want to reduce more weight and so that my— that 20% pain also will go.
Fantastic, Ratna. So one of the things that I want to ask you is with a lot of knee pain, a lot of men and women are very hesitant to join any program because they are scared. What were your feelings at that time when you saw the video on social media? What were your feelings? Did you also have those same kind of fears?
No, I saw your advertisement on Facebook. Immediately I joined, and from day one I started doing the workouts. And they were so scientifically done, I was easily able to do all the workouts which you had given, including the lunges and the squats. Generally, doctors advise not to do squats, not to do lunges, but in your program, I have done all the squats and lunges, and I did not have any problem. Touchwood. And the way you mentor and you tell, you give us the advice in the sessions and even in the masterminds, They are really out of the— out of the— out of everything, actually, whatever is out of the world. So, the honesty and the genuinity which you tell, and really touches our hearts. And every time in the morning, I get up at 6 o'clock just to see that, go for the meditation and do the workouts. In spite of the pain, initially I had a lot of pains, but I still did the workouts. And after that, everything— immediately after doing the workout, you have a little bit pain, that happens to everybody. But after that, throughout the day, I'm very energetic and very fit, and my energy levels mainly have gone up like anything.
So I want you to tell our viewers that how did you push through that initial barrier that most women and men have At this age, in the age of the 50s especially, most men and women have that initial barrier. How did you push the initial barrier to be able to come out of that?
See, it's mainly your mind. You have— because you had given us so many mind programming sessions, how to control your mind and how to de-wire your mind, re-wire your mind. So even if I had pain, I never gave up, because giving up is not an option in our DFC community. So I really, really, really enjoy doing the workouts and the music. And without the music, I think I can't do the workout. The music is awesome. And along with the tuning of the music, you do the workout and really it's out of the world. And everybody should do the workouts regularly, even from the— even the live workouts and also the recorded ones. And after some time, automatically the aches and pains will go.
So did you go back to your doctor after coming and joining?
I did not go. I did not go, and I don't want to go. Then he will tell this thing, that thing. That's why I did not go to the doctor, and I don't plan to go to the doctor in the recent future.
So you're confident that now you don't need to go through surgery?
No, no, no. I not go for the surgery with the— for the further reduction of weight and these scientific exercises and your mentoring. I will be fully all right.
Fantastic, Ratna. What is— what are the top 3 things that you want to tell our viewers?
See, believe in yourself first, that yes, you can do it. Even slight aches and pains will be there, but it's a part of, uh, part of our body, and you have to go through it because everybody has. Not only for us who have knee pains, Normal people also have during the workout, and after that everything becomes okay. And second, train your mind so much that you will not avoid the workouts. And just believe in you. You, whatever you say, you say for our benefit, and the only concern for you is how we get well soon.
Yes, yes, yes. Thank you.
All honesty, we I have never seen a person like you who honestly and genuinely are concerned, and you give so much time to us.
Thank you.
And the workouts, each and every workout is different from the other. I have not seen a single repetition of any workout.
Is it safe to say that you don't— that you need an exercise specialist rather than a physiotherapist in everyone's lives?
Physiotherapy is not required at all. With your workouts, everything will be fine.
Fabulous. So thank you so much, Ratna, and really amazing. Keep shining, and deep gratitude to you.
