how do you preform a hindu pushup? :???:

 

 

If you can't laugh at yourself, there's no point. No point in what, you might ask? there's just no point.


Many people seem to take Karate to get a Black Belt, rather than getting a Black Belt to learn Karate.

Funny I've always known them to be "Korean" push ups ... but that is only because our instructor thought that to be more appropriate for TKD.

 

Just the other day I got an email from Furey about 'Hindu' push ups ....

 

"I had a Palestinian from California write me a couple months ago, who said I should take the 'Hindu' off the term as it may be insensitive. Then, of all things, he went on to say that it would be like calling something 'Jew Squats.' , since when did a Palestinian care about the Jews?

 

That's a new one on me. Putting a country or ethnic origin on an exercise gives credit where credit is due and makes it easier to remember. "

your actually misinterpreted the idea, the hindu push ups are used as a term ecspecially in the pakistani army, where they refer to as the push ups being hindu, because they hate the push ups so much, they call them hindu push ups due to the fact that they hate hindus so much, the palestinian referred at being a jew squat because they hate jews

The "Hindu" press-up looks very like part of the yoga "sun salutation" sequence - could this be how they got their name, or am I completely on the wrong track here?
