Doug Yasinsky (born 1964) is an American retired professional wrestler and promoter, better known by his ring name "Dashing" Doug Flex, who competed in the Mid-Atlantic and East Coast independent circuit during the late 1980s and 1990s. He frequently teamed with Brick Bronsky throughout his career and, along with manager G.Q. Bronsky, were together known as The Brat Pack.

Yasinsky was very popular in Pennsylvania, especially Lehigh Valley, not only as a wrestler but also for his volunteer work with teenagers and organizations such as the Special Olympics. He also promoted amateur boxing and mixed martial arts. His first boxing card in 1992 showcased fighters from six towns and was the first held in Lehighton, Pennsylvania in 7 years. He was the co-owner of the Harrisburg-based International Pro Wrestling with longtime tag team partner Brick Bronsky from 1997 until 2004.

Doug Yasinsky was born in Andreas, West Penn Township, Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania in 1964. After graduating from Tamaqua High School in 1982, he attended Penn State where he met his future tag team partner Brick Bronsky. Having a mutual interest in both bodybuilding and professional wrestling, they eventually entered the business with Yasinsky making his debut in 1988. They won the Canadian International Tag Team Championship in 1988 and 1989, the Galaxy Wrestling Federation Tag Team Championship in 1990 and the North American Wrestling Federation Tag Team Championship in 1991.
