  • I've added hindu squats to my quad workout. I begin my workout with 4 sets of 25 hindu squats supersetted with four sets of leg extensions, 10-15 reps per set. From there I do 3-4 sets of front squats and 3-4 sets of horizontal leg presses. It's been three days and my legs are still sore.

  • Nice, that sounds like a serious leg routine there.

  • hey thanks for the vid. will hindu squats help build muscles in the legs, given enough protein/calories/etc? or is it mainly endurance?

  • I would say it depends on how you do them. If you keep the reps very slow say 4 seconds up 4 seconds down you can very easily put on some mass in your legs. Now I am not talking about huge legs here but. If you are just looking for more muscular legs then absolutely. You can also do jumping hindu squats the explosiveness of that increases muscle recruitment.

  • I remembered the FIRST time i did this,i did 25 & i can't bend my left leg even my right leg hurts a lot & took me about a week to recover lol now i do them daily without getting tired,SUCH a great workout to burn fat,this & hindu pushups.

  • Yeah they are awesome and great for the knees and back too.

  • Thanks for the tips, I'm going to be starting Hindu Squats tomorrow I believe. I'm a flabby man of 5'6" and 273lb. My lack of physical health is currently giving me issues so I either work on it or it works on me.

  • forget the hindu squats; explain how you got that chest!

  • Thanks good initiative!

  • Hindu squats and pushups DO work!

    I started on 24-12-09 with only 40 HS and 10-12 HPU. Today, I'm at 91 HS and 33 HPU!

    The most important is to be consistent and set very small goals ie add 1-2 rep every other day to keep it realistic and easy to surpass, so it encourages you. That strategy worked for me!

    Consistency, as in any endeavour, is the key. A strong will too!

  • Excellent do not give up, consistency is the key.
