This is one most popular exercise done in 'Akhadas' (Hindu Clubs) in India and is really great for developing functional power and strength for Wrestling ('Khushti' in Hindi). I'm glad you covered this area in such a researched way, anatomically. Much appreciation and love from India.🇮🇳
Good to know thanks.Hindu squats on a wobbleboard is super functional and one of very few ways to hit the soleus muscle without a seated calf machine.So now I'm gonna be all about hindu pushups.
Dude, isn't "Akahada" simply a wrestling arena made of dirt. It is not related to any religion. Gama, a.k.a. Ghulam Mohammad Baksh Butt, was a Muslim and he also wrestled in an "Akhada".
@@riichobamin7612 the fact is that all these arts originate from different religious texts of hindus, we have dhanurveda for warfare and different kinds of weapons, and there are other martial arts like vajra mushti, kalari, vajra yuddha, and many different forms of wrestling like jarasandhi, hanumanti all are derived from religious characters....it doesn't mean only hindus can practice them, its open for all.
@@sayanchakraborty2615 thanks for the info man 👍🏻. But I am only talking about a space specifically for wrestling, i.e. "Akhada". Is it really related to any religion ?
Breathe in before the movement (downward dog) , hold breathe during movement( called kumbhak in Sanskrit) and breathe after the movement( cobra pose) Breathwork is very important. Same applies to pullups and Hindu squats. Watch aniruddha shaktiveer for all types Hindu exercises
Why would you hold your breath during movement? Your breath gives you power, and if you are not flexible then holding your breath will restrict movement. There are movements where breath holding is important, but I don't think this is one of them
Yoga is actually really great for keeping your flexibility and keeping muscles in the right place. I see people get forward shoulders from not stretching out enough
Traditional Hindu workouts are very functional and still very much relevant. They were made for martial arts and war craft. Focus is on functional strength, balance, stamina and agility and are not at all heavy on joints or spinal cord except for stone lifting. There are few good UA-cam channel like flying dutchman and shaktiveer anirudha who do good videos on them.
Thanks for the info. I always like learning new calisthenics as it's something I can do in my hotel rooms when traveling without having to go to the gym.
Training for over 3 years I must say I agree with you. Since I have a free resistance around my waist and lower chest fat, I can do burpees and supersetting it w/ mt climbers at sustained weight.
Started doing these during the summer because I was having back issues. And let me tell you new levels of strength and little to no back problems. I love that it’s a stretch along with core strengthening exercise. Love it man
Roll those glutes with a tennis ball while lying down. Raise a knee to 90 degrees and let it slowly fall to the ground with the ball under the glute. Move the ball around. I found excruciating pain doing this. It took a few days to ease up but I got immediate relief from low back pain. Works every time for me. Hope it works for you.
Most of the physical exercises of Ancient India focuses on flexibility, strength, and endurance. It's easy enough to do a few sets that's why Indians repeat these old exercises like 500-700 times(gradually not at the beginning of course). Each rep of such exercise doesn't harm muscle as much and strength develop slowly along with endurance,stamina and flexibility. But I bet the strength gonna last longer and it will be great help if you play sports & martial arts.
@@synthtastic74 All was good till the white people came in to fill their pockets. Post that India's priorities and mindset took a below that it is just now starting to recover from
Love from 🇮🇳.... This is most amezing exercise.. Thank you for this video... I do 200 dands.. And i can say dand is best exercise in world as it works all the muscles... Thanks again
A few years back I got a really bad upper back injury after heavy lifting, and for recovery, I just did Hindu push-ups and body-weight squat for a few weeks and got fantastic recovery results...really respect this exercise.
The wrestlers built the basis of their fitness around squats and pushups done for crazy amounts of sets that led to an extremely high amount of volume. This built, strength, stamina, endurance and flexibility all at the same time. They then added weights and additional exercises like dips, pullups, mace and dumbells. For those of us who aren't Indian wrestlers we can replicate this by simply doing lots and lots of pushups and squats and then add weights or harder variations of bodyweight exercises for lower amounts of sets sporadically. It builds a very functional body.
I've heard people call this a "Judo pushup" and as a judoka, I don't know why. We've always called it a Hindu pushup. I think because there is an old black and white video of Kimura running a class and all the athletes are doing these. Who knows. I have been looking for a movement to do in the morning when I wake up and this might be a perfect exercise for that
because it has been a standard excercize for judo conditioning in class since faaar back then. And judo was a huge novelty in Europe in the early 1900's
Bruce Lee did these back in his time. In his book Tao of Jeet Kune Do, 1st published in 1975, he had mentioned studying an Indian 🇮🇳 wrestler who did 100 dive bomber + 100 baithak squats, daily.
Het, Adam, have you read Matt Furey's book Combat Conditioning? He emphasizes a routine he calls the Royal Court which has the Hindu pushup, Hindu squat, and the neck bridge as the core of his program.
It's been a part of my groups BJJ warmup routine for ever (4+ years), probably since this movement is decent for wrestling and that is one of my coaches backgrounds.
Really loved how nicely and accurately he covered it. Also apart from these two dans tare are many more dands in yoga. This is what people are misguided that yoga is all stretches which is far from truth. Yoga is a way of balancing and strengthening you mind, body and soul. Great video too.
6:00- Right up there with anything in the Matrix. Loved this. In a influencer crazed world where posting superficial videos about what flash foods they shelled out on every day is a unconvincing masquerade of "content", 'tis videos like this here that restore the right balance. Practicing, bettering and mastering movements and mobilities you do here is helping and bettering others to better themselves, outside the gym and where ever they are.
That's actually nuts. I've essentially been doing that finally variation for months just as a stretch. I have noticed that stretching you leg to that position gets an amazing stretch on both the glutes and back.
I couldn’t decide what to get my gf for Christmas but then heard a knock on the door and Adam was standing there with wrapped gifts and said “Never fear, the Bioneer is here!” He then lizard-crawled and lunges away. You saved Christmas. Thank you, Mr. Bioneer!
Another great video. I first learned about Hindu pushups from a book I think was called combat conditioning. Watching this made me wish I have kept doing them regularly since I learned about them.
Adam I would recommend you to check out the Rammurti Dand of professor rammurti naidu....it's another variation of hindu pushups(sadharan Dand) but is a lot tougher and requires more strength.
I've been doing them since the 70's with the only difference being that I do them on closed fists instead of palms flat, as I learned this push up as a part of series of warm up exercises for Choy Lay Fut Kung-Fu.
Thank you for acknowledging Hindu source. The exercises are more than just stretches, they are asanas which must be contextualised in the yoga philosophy where morality is fundamental and liberation the goal. Baie dankie for lovely video.
I've always known this exercise as "baby maker" pushups so I was pleasantly surprised to see they were the subject of the video, definitely the most fun pushing exercise I do.
I like that you look like a natural healthy strong person and not like bodybuilder. In my oppinion your physique should be the gold standard of fitness beauty. Way more healthy to try to have a body similar to yours.
I really love doing Hindu pushups. It's a fun change from the regular or other similar 'plain' pushups. But I only just realised how many more benefits there are to this exercise, after watching your video. After this, I will without doubt do more of these!! *Epik.* Also, could you perhaps do a video on that infamous kickthrough (that at this point just seems like your signature move - along with that epik handspring (which I like to call the 'bearspring' 🤣))? It's a really cool move, and so I believe it deserves a bit of UA-cam love! Thank you, also for the awesome content ❤💪🔥
Definitely added these into my routine! Just found your channel and loving your content. I'm relatively new to calisthenics and exercise and I'm finding your videos super helpful, great work.
Honestly, I love these too. You can really feel just how much more of your body it works as you move and definitely after. Funny thing is, I was actually going pull up to the video to ask about the variation at 5:45, because I honestly defaulted to that 😅. In any case, I've been neglecting to get enough of these as of late, so it's good to see some more attention brought to them!
Hey! I am incorporating two different exercises I learned from you, Pal! But I really like the looks of this one too. I believe J shall incorporate it. First attempt will be tonight after getting off work( 12 hour shifts). Thanks SO much for all you give us. Seriously. I am grateful for your well thought out relevant things that you show us. I often refer people to you too.💪💪✨😎
In my 60's with multiple injuries from a mv accident in 2003, i would GLADLY change bodies with you to have that strength and mobility I was a national Olympic and powerlifter, martial artist and boxer, cross country runner etc Took me 14 months to walk again If it had not been for the sheer strength of my musculature i would have still been a quad in a wheel chair eating soup I do some of the stretching and passive exercises you recommend and they work I will give you my address and we can do a body swap any day As an ex ex, you give excellent advice Keep on keeping on Heads up Eyes open No fear
As a journeyman in movement, I perform a simplified version of the Hindu pushup from the knees as part of a kind of Asana, synergizing it with the Yamakasi push up. This helps me to grow the neuromuscular connections to train my body towards different levels of engagement over time.
Atlast , one man has said about the push ups which is basically an indian push-ups as well as the martial art legend Bruce lee also had an experience doing this fantastic push-ups.....it gives strength to all full body
This has seriously become my favourite exercise, it has just so many aspects and has really helped build my shoulder size and strength. Thanks so much!
Tapp brothers here on YT also talks about this hindu pushups in parkour functional method. In addition to hindu pushups I also add hindu squats and hip hinged snow angles using lighter dumbbell/resistance bands.They helped me out greatly.
Brilliant, I’ve been doing these in a flow as: “downward dog to chaturanga dandasana to upward dog” Now I have a cool name to call them. Really great exercise with so many benefits and intuitive breathing.
Classic. I remember Matt Furey’s Combat Conditioning and doing hundreds of these plus the Hindu Squats and doing the static wrestler’s bridge holds every day.
Flexibility, strength and cardio are three pillars of fitness and important for combat and all ancient traditional Hindu exercises were designed focusing on developing all the 3 parameters together..
@@maalikfazal1406 I go to failure and do a minimum of 3 sets. They’re designed for high reps and wrestlers will do 100s of reps everyday. Maybe you should see how many you can do in 30 minutes and go from there.
@@maalikfazal1406 I started off with just body weight and when I could do 50 reps I added a bit of weight then when I could do 50 reps with that weight I added some more weight and I did 4 sets this way six days a week I reached about 20kgs towards the end but those were tough times man and I am 16 so I recovered insanely quickly so eh idk if you should follow my routine bro but if it works for you then that’s amazing
I knew an ex wrestler who, now in his 50''s who did this everyday any chance he could and even at 50 was really coordinated and strong, he would even do them with more explosive power. Really a great workout to do as a stand alone and a great variant to the standard push-up. Highly recommended!!!
There are total of 12 ( dands),one of my favorite is the "Hanuman Dand ", actually very good for testosterone boost,agility, and flexibility . Guys try this dand i am able to go for 40 in a row . Must try!!!🔥
This is how I was taught to perform divebombers as a kid in Japanese Jiu Jitsu. ua-cam.com/video/dK9QHdENhLI/v-deo.html My Hanshi taught us to keep our faces, chest and waist as close to the ground as possible without touching in both directions. He used to say "Under the fence! Here comes the dog!". I still do these regularly 40+ years later. They're a regular part of my athletes and clients programs.
In India from a very long time this form of exercise is practiced in the Akadhas. It is said inly Dand and Baithaks provide a full body exercise and retain muscle mass for longer time as compared to weights.
Yes, i was using the move and got out of using it, thanks for bringing it back to me...Hanumann, the the monkey King both for Indian and Chinese mythology although Vhinese is more the money king. Great stuff keep the out door going...will you do some through the winter outside?

No you don't hold breathe during movement. Not even in yoga you do that.

@@maalikfazal1406 I started off with just body weight and when I could do 50 reps I added a bit of weight then when I could do 50 reps with that weight I added some more weight and I did 4 sets this way six days a week
I reached about 20kgs towards the end but those were tough times man and I am 16 so I recovered insanely quickly so eh idk if you should follow my routine bro but if it works for you then that’s amazing
@@edwardelric9347 thanks for replying brother. Keep making some gains. Stay blessed 🙏🏽
Man that environment around u is just breathtaking.
Proud to be an Hindu ❤️🙏👍
I knew an ex wrestler who, now in his 50''s who did this everyday any chance he could and even at 50 was really coordinated and strong, he would even do them with more explosive power. Really a great workout to do as a stand alone and a great variant to the standard push-up. Highly recommended!!!

Well, this is the result of years of meditation of our sages. Everyone should benefit from these.

My Hanshi taught us to keep our faces, chest and waist as close to the ground as possible without touching in both directions. He used to say "Under the fence! Here comes the dog!".
I still do these regularly 40+ years later. They're a regular part of my athletes and clients programs.

In India from a very long time this form of exercise is practiced in the Akadhas. It is said inly Dand and Baithaks provide a full body exercise and retain muscle mass for longer time as compared to weights.
Yes, i was using the move and got out of using it, thanks for bringing it back to me...Hanumann, the the monkey King both for Indian and Chinese mythology although Vhinese is more the money king. Great stuff keep the out door going...will you do some through the winter outside?
