The Hindu Pushup - Fat Burning Exercise

[1fcourage]

Lol.. the moment i bend my arms and head towards the floor i just hear "Plop!"

I fell on the floor... :(

[uddayshank]

Point1: Keep your elbows closer to your sides. Keep your palms flat stretched open so that each of your fingers completely touch the floor. Keep your palms around 3-4 inches wide or closer if you can.

Point2: When you come down, Glide yourself to go forward and not just shoulder comes down and pushed back up.

Point3: When you go back to up position, focus and contract your core abs.

Eccovi un ulteriore spunto per push up :-)

Bravissimi, complimenti!

[idiotgear]

[tatic1595]

Oh hai! Have you tried intellectus 424 diet (do a google search)? Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my cooworker lost a lot of weight with it.

[U5011453]

well there are 12 kinds of traditional push ups in India. I don't know why only this one is so famous.

[MrQAUS]

Hey! Have you thought about intellectus 424 diet (google it)? Ive heard some incredible things about it and my mate lost crazy amounts of weight with it.

[Swaggtasticc01]

how many of these each day should someone do?



[anshmania]

[Beamster420]

[X1XToxicX1X]

2 people dont like hindu's



[wafflecushioned]

Is everybody on here a female? Because these are not that hard to do, unless you're a female.

[ktkbar]

@wafflecushioned try this ?v=WafTjG7oDCw&feature=related­.

[mattietheawesome]

@wafflecushioned That's sexist. I'm a girl and I can do these just fine.

[wafflecushioned]

@mattietheawesome It's not sexist, it's the truth that men are stronger than women (generally speaking). If I was sexist I would say something stupid like this woman needs to get back in the kitchen. If you can do these then all the power to you. I apologize if my comment was offensive to you.

[animalsandclothes]

nuggle20 is right. i only weigh 115 lb and this is a little hard for me!!!

[JonnyBauer]

Back when I exercise all the time, I used to be able to do 65 press ups in 30 seconds. Then I discovered Hindu Press Ups, and collapsed halfway through my 28th rep. An incredibly dynamic and effective exercise.

[serpent7700]

HINDU Pushups LOL !

[PankBrun]

It is worth noting there is no such thing as a fat burning excercise ;)

[yamanmustafa]

I've found that most Hindus I know are obese...

[LauraBeachnut]

@yamanmustafa

That's what the American diet will do to you.

[uddayshank]

@yamanmustafa They must be ignorant people who have forgotten the Indian practices of yoga and have been blindly copying western way of life to look cool and acceptable.

Sadly, we accept richness of our culture only when a westerner likes it too.

[calebbl]

she fine

[arjundevane]

actually this comprises steps 4,5,6 of the "sashtang-namaskar". which is of total 8 steps.

this is defined in yoga. and believe me it works fine. doing normal push ups will build your chest but this will make whole body. and if you do the whole 8 steps for around 1-2 months you will get awesome results. it will take more time than cardio-gym to get slim but it is light.

Do 3 sets of 15 reps for start.n most importantly control ur breathing. slow breathing work better. look all 8 steps on net.

[ShotDownInFlames2]

Is the "sashtang-namaskar" also called the "sun salutation?"

[arjundevane]

no i dont exactly remember. but sashtang means "eight body parts". and namskar means respect/salute etc.

[skyhr]

[cinderellasCurse]

o-m-g my dad does his push ups like that and i used to make fun of him because it looked hilarious compared to the "traditional push up" that i knew! in bangladesh they do the "hindu pushups", its the only kind of push up they know.
