The Hindu Push-Up: Ancient Training for Modern Strength

The Hindu Push-Up isn’t just another push-up variation…

It’s one of the oldest, most effective exercises for building real-world strength, mobility, and shoulder health.

Used for centuries by Indian wrestlers like The Great Gama (who remained undefeated for over 50 years), this movement trains the entire upper body while keeping your shoulders and spine healthy.

In this video, I’ll break down:
✅ How to do the Hindu Push-Up properly
✅ Why it’s so powerful for strength and mobility after 40
✅ How to scale it based on your current fitness level

If you’re looking to train smarter—not just harder—this belongs in your toolbox.
