Fat Fighter by hindu squats
Here’s a very basic program to try out that includes hindu squats.
I’m noticing from the survey results that more and more people are looking for bodyweight programs. This isn’t much and just consists of a total of 200 reps. I haven’t included chinups.
At the end of this program rest for 5 mins and, If you are able, do a good steady 40minute walk to really stimulate the...

Ladder Workouts for Hindu Squats
I’ve been thining about using the concept of ladder workouts for bodyweight training and applying it to hindu squats.
I have to admit I haven’t tried this yet, so it may not work. Usually with ladder workouts they increase the sets by 1 or 2 reps each time, but I was thinking of groups of 5.
My idea is:
5x hindu squats,5x hindu pushups
10x hindu squats, 10x hindu pushups
15x...

300 - The Workout
Hello fellow hindu squats fans….
You guys (and girls) have no doubt heard or even seen the movie 300?
The video below is the type of conditioning the actors did as preparation for the movie. These workouts spurned the concept of the 300 workout.
The basic idea is to do a series of exercises with total reps coming to 300. There are no hard and fast rules about what you should do, but the...

Aching Muscle - Hindu Squats #2
The main problem I have with the article below is the presumption that the answer to getting rid of muscle pain is to just keep on doing the exercise, in this case hindu squats. In order to keep developing an exercise you do have to keep doing the exercise, but, when it comes to muscle pain we need to consider recovery techniques. I released a great report on recovery techniques a while back, so...
Aching Muscles - Hindu Squats
This is an interesting article I found re hindu squats and sore muscles. It suggests repeating the exercise in order to deal with the soreness. I reserve my own take on this for the next post. For now- read, think, discuss. How to Get Rid of Muscle Pain By Ryan Dodson How many times, the morning after you worked out,
have you woke up with aching muscles? When I first started doing...

Hindu squats training
Hindu squats are an exercise
that have been used by Indian wrestlers for centuries to build
explosive power, speed and endurance.
Unlike barbell squats,
which often cause severe trauma and injury to knee joints and lower
backs - Hindu squats actually rehabiliate the knees while strengthening
the muscles of the legs. The key is working into them slowly. Never
force progress in this exercise.

Hindu Squat definitions
Hindu squat From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The hindu squat or Uthak-bethak (Hindi: Standing and sitting) is an Indian calisthenic bodyweight exercise used by Indian wrestlers and other athletes to build leg endurance and strength. Unlike a normal squat, the heels are elevated, shifting the knees far forward. This places more stress than usual upon the knee joint, both the knee extensors...

Hindu Squats - report update
Hey, I’m nearly ready for this report to go up on the site. Just a few web techy things to iron out and we are away. It’s amazing how much I have learnt while researching this. I know you will get a lot of value out of this as well. Nobody is talking about this in the mainstream media. I don’t know why, this is so important. Maybe this is the stuff the so-called gurus...

Substance Training with Hindu Squats
I found a way of working with hindu squats which I found to be interesting, it’s known as Substance Training. The idea of substance training is to be able to accomplish more work in less time. What you’re supposed to do is time how long you are able to do a certain workout, gradually lower the total number of sets while increasing the number of reps per set while lowering the rest between...

Hindu Squats - listen to your body
There are two things that every trainee of hindu squats needs to know how to do - and both are mental. The first is called “listening to your body.” The second is called “telling your body what you want it to do.” It’s easy to say, “Do 100 Hindu squats, 50 Hindu pushups and a back bridge each day - that’s the secret.” Truth is, if you do those...

Fat loss with Hindu Squats
Did you know the best way to burn belly fat is a shock to most people? They have never even heard of hindu squats. Most will guess, “Crunches”, “Situps”, or “aerobic cardio” as the best way to lose stomach fat. But none of those work best, or even work at all! In fact, I often get asked, What’s the best way to burn fat and lose my belly? Do aerobics...
Hindu Squats wipeout
It is the trend to burn fat by doing long-distance cardio. But you can burn fat faster with total body movements like hill sprints, dynamic deep breathing, hindu squats and so on. There have been times that people tell me they have inches of fat dropping off their bodies - and this was from a few minutes a day of hindu squats and stretching. Not the 20 to 25 minute routines the magazines tout. In...

Maybe I was too keen to get back into it??? Well, I’m not crippled so all is good :) Tomorrow, more hindu squats and plenty of stretching for recovery….
Workout Wipeout - give your body a break
repost from www.medicinenet.com Feb. 5, 2001 — The runny nose, stuffy head, and hacking cough: Those telltale signs of a cold or flu can be hard to ignore. Yet many exercise devotees find it tempting to do so (and they know who they are). But working out through an illness can backfire, depending upon what type of bug you’ve got and on how intensely you exercise. When deciding...

Hormones & Training
I read a really interesting newsletter article on the connection between hormones and hindu squats training. It is a very exciting topic that I am super passionate about as optimizing hormones is critical to well being and reaching your strength and conditioning goals. To think otherwise is only to delude yourself. Low testosterone levels will prevent you from feeling strong, powerful and...

Rhythmic Breathing Exercise
The idea of rhythmic breathing is to “catch the swing” in order to absorb and control a greatly increased amount of internal energy. This will develop the technique of getting into the rhythm of the hindu squats. In rhythmic breathing the main thing to be acquired is the mental idea of rhythm. Think of the idea of measured counting like in music or the rhythmic steps of soldiers and you will get...

Deep Breathing with Hindu Squats
One critical technique with hindu squats is deep rhythmic breathing. I find that if I don’t control my breathing I tend to blow out quickly even though my legs feel like they could do a few more reps. I know that breathing exercises can increase my lung capacity, allowing for deeper and smoother breathing. This style of breathing increases oxygen utilization and efficiency at the cellular...

It’s called Pavel’s Ladder. Pavel Tsatsouline claims to have been a former physical training instructor for the Soviet Special Forces. The theory behind this methodology is called...

Changing my body with hindu squats
It’s time I made some changes in my life and body shape is gonna be one of them. I’m going to exercise at home using hindu squats and other body weight movements. I’m not too attracted to the gym with all those buffed types getting around. It’s a fake environment and I don’t believe they’re all natural (if you know what I mean) ;) I reckon exercising at home...
