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.

Many people involved in weight training are shocked at how difficult this seeming simple looking exercise can be.

Can you get stronger doing this so-called “free hand” leg exercise while also staying away from barbell and dumbbell squats? Absolutely. Can you develop greater muscle mass with this bodyweight exercise?
