These and bodyweight squats are great as you age. This is the stuff that keeps you in the game. At 61 I'm in better shape than most my age and this is how you keep active and age properly. There's no escaping the the aging process but that doesn't mean you have to sit on the couch and wait to die. Good stuff, thanks for posting.
i can vouch for this exercise. I am from India, my grandpa was a wrestler back in his days. he used to train in traditional Indian Akhada (Akhada basically equals to your regular MMA or Boxing gym). he was a mud wrestler. he told me he used to do 1 thousand of these deep knee squats every day when he was young. he kept doing these exercise until he was 95. he lived till 102 and let me tell you, up until his final month, he used to walk everyday to local market and bring daily groceries to home. he never let anyone of us drive him, he was soo much fit up until he end and his walking was also a lot faster. he also taught me this exercise and i do it everyday. everyday 250 reps of these and 100 reps of Hindu dand.

@@strummersheroes7972 no sorry... He's not the one from the book. Although I haven't read the book but the reason you're finding many similarities between could be because he or the character from the book wasn't the only once who had characteristics like that.

I don't think he ever got interviewed not to my knowledge. He never passed on his knowledge and wisdom publically... He gave it to his family. One thing which was most prominent was that he had a routine for the whole family... Men, women, children or even any guests, no excuses, no days off, 365 days a year, no matter how sick you are ... Whoever was in the house they had to wake up 5 in the morning (you can go back to sleep after if you want) and do atleast 10 surya namaskar, 10 baithak, 10 dand and 5-5 minutes of 2 breathing asaans which are anulom vilom and kapalbhati. I remember doing this routine for as long as i can remember, same with my father, my grandma said when she married to him, he made her do this from the first day onwards into there married life... Same with my mom and same with my wife. He always said no matter what profession you are in, wether you are a housewife, a kid going to school or a professional working in corporate office, these 30 minutes will take you long way in your life. We still follow this routine and i am teaching my kids too.
They make an interesting pair -- Kyle is all about totally mastering the fundamental movements, and Adam is about trying literally EVERY imaginable human movement at least once. 😁
I had horrible knee pain when I was about 27-28 from working on cement floors all day, everyday. I started doing these squats back then. After a few weeks I had zero pain in my knees. It’s been 16yrs now. I still work on hard floors all day long and I am still pain free. 👍
@NEVERGIV3UP. I second this, I've been getting pain on and off and it seems like he's leaning quite far forward in this video which I did and was off balance and seemed to cause the most pain. We're all built differently and I've suffered knee pain in the past so could be anything.
@@Pebblewhiteface like the ATG way of training, do it to a point where you can tolerate it and it doesnt hurt, keep doing it till you can do the standard pain free.
I'm a little old lady with a lifetime of hip disease, and both hips replaced before age 50. I do a lot of squats because they're quick easy, effective and TIME EFFICIENT for my needs. Your video provided some simple & succinct answers on form for me. Many thanks!
I just got done watching this video and tried my hand on these , did 60 on the first set. I don't do squats anymore since I always feel it more on my lower back than on my legs. This movement itself feels incredible , I felt it on my knees and quads every single rep! Definitely adding these to my leg day routine. Thank you for the info!
I have unbelievably terrible stamina and after watching your video about the foolproof daily calisthenics, it was super apparent to me how winded I was with just 25 reps of bodyweight squats alone. Thank you for these videos bro!!! I love your simplicity in foundations method! I wish more channels focused more on the basics
Excellent content and format. Straight to the point, no lengthy intro wasting time. I'm doing various squats to rehab a badly injured ankle right now so it's a great suggestion from the algorithm for me.
i've been doing normal squats for a year but rarely noticed any significant sensation around my knees ever, did like 1 set of this exercise and i can already feel it in my knees. Thanks for this!
I bought it like in the first seconds but double bought it when you said “bulletproof your knees” and thats what im looking for right now!!! Thanks a lot, I’m gonna check your channel, blessings!
Man, watching you perform these movements is beautiful in a way, I look at you as the peak of calisthenics, I don't see you perform fancy moves like a one hand handstand or fingertip planches, but the way you perform basic movements such as the squat, pushup and pull up, I can only describe it as beautiful, its like watching years of hardwork, repetition and consistency culminate into the smoothest most seamless version of those basic movements and it just looks awesome. I hope to reach your level one day, you're my inspiration
Night Shade, this is exceptionally kind! I truly appreciate it. Not everyone "gets it", so Its really cool when someone does. Much appreciated. Keep at it and it will come. It's inevitable.
I just wanted to come and say that your videos are super helpful and authentic to my fitness progress which makes me appreciate every time you upload. Have a wonder day
@@Kboges Hi Kyle! Just wanted to ask you, how many sets/reps of bear crawls should I do a week for shoulder muscle growth. I'm skinny and I need your advice to get bigger, especially in my upper body.
This channel came out of nowhere! It’s not everyday there’s a new contender in the fitness space that is contributing value through simplicity! Keep it up KBoges, you’re smashing it.
This is great: I've been dodging the ACL rebuild for over 20 years which I acquired as a consequence of skiing. The idea of bullet-proofing knees via exercise really sounds terrific. Thanks for the vid!
Great exercise!! My left knee was dislocated a few times when I was younger and on some movements, like going down stairs I still feel strain. But with this exercise the movement feels smooth and supportive. Will be doing some work with this one..Thanx!!
@@martinkinyua957 Watch the link in the description. Getting the knees far past the toes is the point. This is not dangerous- that's a myth that won't go away.
@@martinkinyua957 that’s the whole point of the exercise lol it’s a myth what you’re saying back then walking would cause knee pain following this myth of not letting your knees over toes now that i do these dangerous movements that you say i can walk mostly if not a 100% pain free
I’m 60 & a hardcore mtn biker & have been looking to add something different to my leg routine, gonna give this a try, thanks K, I love the body weight training you do & you’ve helped me hold on to my strength without destroying my joints
I do about 1000 freehand bodyweight squats, every other day. Sets involve 20 to 30 incline push-ups, then 65 squats as shown in your video.This is continuous for 15 sets of that combination.So were looking at about 300 to 400 push-ups and 975 airsquats, done in 50 minutes. These none stop reps are great for weight loss and general but not extreme strength.Muscle endurance it's called. Calorie loss about 600 calories,per 50 minute session.
Thx, Kyle! You were my inspiration to quit the gym and CrossFit. Replaced it with bodyweight and ring training. I am still astonished about the benefits. My posture significantly improved. Shoulder pain is gone. Mobility improved. Abs look better. Gained volume in shoulders and arms. Also, I appreciate the simplicity of the weekly routine. No fancy sh*t. Do the fundamentals and that's it. I Love It.
@@Kboges I only dislike leg training. At the moment, I do 750 lunches or squats with a small pause at the bottom. It takes forever. On the other hand it was necessary to unleash the pistol squat with acceptable form. I still have some way to go.
Please please make a playlist with all conditioning exercises in one place. The content is so nice. It would be awesome to have it in proper playlists.
Good to see you realising how powerful this exercise is. In starting it will give your knees feeling of tightness and movement will lack fluidity and elegance. But with time this exercise is the best thing you can ever do to you leg strength. It also engages calves and soleus and with time increase size of calves. Our Indian wrestlers do this exercises in 1000+ reps with super calorie dense diets and rest. Secret to their strength
@@Kboges yeah I am from india (specially from Haryana) so I have seen this since my childhood in open air i along with my friends used to do it until whole body starts sweating ( apart from this squat (BAITHAK in regional Indian language ) we also do SAPATE( Indian burpees) which gives full body workout. So yeah first some warm up some running 3-5 km depends on weather 😂also. Then sapate dand(Indian push ups) baithak(shown in your video) until it sweats and we start counting when muscles get HOT and pumped upto 100*5 or 250*2 types. I haven’t worked to super high reps like our great wrestlers do But yeah they do it over a period of 10-15 years since childhood and regularly condition their knees with oiling massaging and stretching with super heavy 5-6k calorie diet(minimum). So they become super strong and super stamina (long bouts of wrestling) I personally follow your channel because of unique training style you pick up from different training cultures and bring to us. Was very happy to see Indian exercise here ❤️❤️❤️keep growing
Love this. I do body weight squats, push ups, and pull ups 3-5 times a week. 6 sets each. I truly feel calisthenics are the way. I’m 32. I just don’t see the point in lifting heavy anymore. I’d like to preserve my body not tear it apart.
Take it from me, someone who got a bulging disc doing deadlifts and then ended up getting ruptured discs from trying to get it fixed...stick to calisthenics! I'd go back in time and change to that only calisthenics plus light high weight reps if i had a time machine :(
@@anthonybalista7421 there is no calisthenics work that can work your posterior chain like deadlifts. You did it with bad form don’t blame the exercise lol
I just found your channel and liked the video. Then I went to your page and saw most of your vids are sub 5 minutes: Subscribed immediately. THIS is how you do youtube. 15+ minute vids are overrated. Thank you and keep it up!
Well done! Glad it worked for you! These were key for building up endurance for me, as well as rehabbing some old injuries. I'm such a fan of this exercise.
I literally just finished a full body workout and saw my wedges and said "I can do some heel elevated squats later today". I then check my email and see this. I get it, I got it, I'm on it!
I got very very into doing Hindu squats, working up to 500 straight in less than 15 minutes. I can say this: they greatly increase wind and leg stamina, my legs, particularly my quads are genetically immense so they did add size. However, I can run long distances and my quads will grow (high ratio of slow twitch fibers). The caveat is this, definitely do not do that type of volume daily!!!! 2 or 3 times a week is more than enough. My hips and knees definitely started to show signs of overuse.
Old school exercise are still the best. I wonder how many people have left gyms for more traditional work outs. I have done so now for 4 years, I live in central Europe, so in summer its awesome outside, in winter its limited by rain and snow. I do feel that overall I am healthier and train smarter. I am 50 and feel awesome and listen to my body when training.
I learn something from you everyday yo. Been doing squats everyday for awhile now. Can’t wait to incorporate this variation! 45 years old and excited to see my knees getting stronger not weaker.
Part of my daily routine, both with and without barbells. I keep the barbell weight light, no more than 60 pounds, anything heavier cuts into my reps. I don't rush the reps either, slow and deliberate. Not exactly a time under tension (TUT) rep, but not in a hurry and with no bouncing. PS- I like putting a short length of 2x4 under my heels while doing squats to keep them elevated. 62 years young and loving it. ;)
Can confirm!! Game changers for my skateboarding and climbing. Been doing these since last year to try and beat chronic knee pain and haven't had any issues since. Since you're gonna be on your toes for most balance based sports, the specificity is great, and it improves balance on your toes too. 10/10 would recommend!
As a Powerlifter, I incorporate bodyweight exercises while I program my workouts. These have been amazing as far as muscle activation/warm-ups/finishers/cardio sessions (not optimal for cardio, but you get the idea). Amazing video.
@@Kboges in my humble opinion once you get to overload these (i.e. goblet squats or vest) while having an elevated heel, they are brutal. Thank you for sharing this with more people, who just want a general guide to training.
I grew up and still live on a high, steep valley side. This didn't meant much to me, until I recognised that people from the flat areas would struggle a lot with simply walking the terrain. I think luck of location has given me and those around me a degree of natural advantage, as I've never known leg tiredness unless running. But, I will absolutely add this to my routine.
Backwards uphill walking does absolute wonders for your knees, so if you have too much pain doing squats, try to walk backwards uphill until you get strong enough for squatting.
Just yesterday did the Indian variation of this (baithak), I'm starting to feel pain in different parts of my leg. Now I'll definitely include it in my workouts.
This reminds me of 'Dands' an exercise Indian wrestlers have been doing since ages for stamina and endurance where the knees go beyond your toes. Thanks for shedding light on this movement. 👍
To relieve pressure on the knees this exercise can be performed by keeping the bend to a 90 degree angle. Don't lock out at the top of the upward movement or the downward movement. Aim for a continuous fluid motion. Slight elevation of the heels also helps with balance for those who find knee bends with flat heels awkward.
There's also the matter of your hip joint. Your foot placement could be different. Most women are anteversion, while men tend to need a retroversion posture.
"...Working up to 2 ~ 3 Sets a 50~100 Reps [with] constant tension style so you don't walk out the top that a few days/week & you'll have a pair of legs that are incredibly resilient..." A really practical & also promising recommendations! Thanks for your great ideas!
It’s crazy how much misinformation has been brought to us by the fitness industry. Thank you for adding this one, I’m looking into strengthening my knees. It’s so important.
I have been using your exercises to get my stamina up before i return to kicboxing training and honestly this one is so simple and so effective. Just doing 3 sets of 40 as a start and i hope to get it up to 80-100 before i get back into fighting. Thanks dude.
@@harshitshukla2108 Thanks for asking. I did kickboxing training for about 9 consequtive months, 3 times a week, adjusted well strenght wise after 2 weeks, still my legs were fried for a week after the first session. I wasn't used to 500-1000 squats a week. But the more challenging part was to learn to pace myself and get better at cardio. I thought i was in decent shape starting out oh boy was i wrong. I would really recommend 3 sets of 60-100 squats if you want to have the necessary conditioning. Also, for energy, i had to incorporate more carbs to my diet which lead me to actually gain mass during that time. I am happy enough with my competence now to quit kickboxing to follow a cut with strength training and swimming.
@@nvlarcht Thanks man, I am currently starting again at the after a 6 month gap in training and it feels horrible tbh. My stamina is lowered to such a level that doing bodyweight lunges and squats leave me gasping for air. All my strength in lifts are gone and it feels like I never went to the gym earlier at all. Was looking for a way to increase my stamina and I happened to find this video.
I was paying close attention to everything you were saying for like a good two minutes and then I realised bro hasn’t stopped squatting. Terrific Fitness my friend clap
Without knees over toes guy (Ben patrick) my knees would still be popping and cracking like rice krispies. He introduced me to the deep knee bend philosophy that you are discussing here, as well as the philosophy of training tibialis. Has boosted my performance by magnitudes because I like to do tricks when I jump rope, but you need some very stable knees to do so for long periods of time. Great video coach boges!
I love this vid! Super educational and helpful. I'm curious, have you ever used Next Level Diet? I got a personalized muscle-building meal plan from them and I love it.
i stopped doing that two years ago and now i am starting again i would say its easier to build up reps previous experience normally i could do 500 in one set but now even 200 is a challenge Its great to find your channel its the best
That is quality content ! I always look for new exercice to strength my knee and this one is fantastic. Futhermore, it's a functionnal exercice. Thx you !
I've been using these to condition my somewhat creaky knees for Platz-style barbell squatting (which is probably the single best squat style for quad hypertrophy). This is purely anecdotal, but these have helped me a lot with both the movement pattern and with knee health/condition required for this style of squatting.
Hahaha yeah man. No complaints. San Diego is a great spot but it has changed a lot. It's not the same place it used to be, but the weather and natural beauty is still here.
Oh I feel you, man. What so cool about this, is it's a little hidden gem in the middle of an old middle class neighborhood. My wife and I used to live a block away and one day were walking around this area and thought it would be amazing if we could get a house on the trail, which is what you see behind my deck. We ended up looking the next day, happened to find this house that just went up for sale like 2 days before, and moved in a month later. What's eve more wild is it was one of the only houses in SD that we could afford 😂 We got SOOO lucky and while the house still needs a ton of work (built in the 60's), I appreciate the little oasis in the back yard every day. @@eliotfaye
Its awesome that joint / connective tissue training is seeing a resurgence. My advice to those who have really bad knees: Start by sitting on the bottom step of your stairs for a few minutes, twice a day. It mimics the deep squat and its very supported. When that's more comfortable focus on getting up and sitting back down. Within a few weeks you'll be ready to start training with movements like the one in the video. Love your content, keep up the great work.
That's an interesting suggestion. I've recently been getting back into squatting motions after having my kneecap patched back together, and have been very cautious for quite some time about popping something loose. Gradual build-up of connective tissue is right in line with my needs.
@@stevenscott2136 Great thing about using steps is someone like yourself can use the 2nd or 3rd step to step to start and slowly increase the angle over time into a lower position. Good luck with the recovery!
Once you reach the point at which your knees are over your toes (not past) then start to bend at the waist and you will be able to go deeper without your knees going past your toes.
Jesus is coming, so please repent and turn to Him and believe what He did to us so u may be saved❤ He is our Lord and Savior and bc of Him we dont have to go to hell
@@Hjj.sjsjzksk What the fuck does Jesus have to do with physical exercises for limitless stamina? Why would you assume I need to repent for anything? I am morally perfect, thank you very much. There is no Hell, unless you are Sartre and believe that Hell is other people. Save it for the storefront huckster church, pal.
I've been doing Hindu squats for many months now, between 450 and 650 in 29 minutes every other day. As you say, build up SLOWLY. If you play around with minutia of form, you will find equal burn in your glutes and hams as in your quads. I use them as main part of my warm up prior to heavy sandbag work. Like running but my knees hate running and love these!
Yes, this is a great exercise. Staying on your toes creates a lot of dynamic tension in the calves, so this exercise will keep a spring in your step, even as you age. You can add other bodyweight movements with this to create a good workout. I would add: bodyweight lunges; and Hindu pushups, which are the same movements you see in Yoga sun salutations; after that, all you need is a bar for some pullups. That's 4 exercises and you've hit the entire body.
Wow, this is new to me, though I have seen this on the internet every now and then. I'll definitely do this as a leg workout aside from other squat variations. Thank you for this.
Great job making it clear; the purpose between varying rep ranges. I hiked up through Yosemite to the top of Half Dome last month. When planning the trip I thought “I do heavy squats and I’m sure that’ll be plenty for training up to this hike” hahahahaha oh man my quads were ripping off my legs by the time I got the the top. It was an epic and successful day, but I couldn’t train legs for over a week after that. Gotta do high rep squats for sure if I plan to do that again.
Dude exactly! I had a very similar experience when I was lifting. It’s easy to forget that all these approaches are tools for a particular outcome. When you select the wrong tool for the job wow you certainly know it!
THANK YOU 🙌 When trainers started saying that it's bad to have your knees go over your toes in a squat I was taken because everything I read up to today has said the opposite. I tried doing the new version of squats and I almost damaged my knees. As soon as I started doing your version again I saw improvement in everything. Thanks!
Would you recommend elevating the heels for the whole exercise, such as using a plate under the heels? I noticed you were simply lifting your heels at the bottom of the squat.
I am an Indian, and my father made us do this exercise very often. It is very common here and is also known as Dand Baithak or Uthak Baithak in hindi. Pretty simple but a burning exercise.
1 Corinthians 15:1-4 KJV Bible [1] Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; [2] By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. [3] For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; [4] And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: Ephesians 2:8-9 KJV Bible [8] For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: [9] Not of works, lest any man should boast. Romans 10:9-13 KJV Bible [9] That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. [10] For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. [11] For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. [12] For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. [13] For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. John 3:16 KJV Bible For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 14:6 KJV Bible Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
@@Kboges Thanks for the tip to the other brief video. It shows that the heels leave the ground during the knee bend, but return to the ground as you rise up again. Answers my question!
Yeah my grandfather used to do Kushti(it's an indian wrestling, different state had different variations or names) and he always did these exercises and also recommended it to me.
Legit this exercise has done wonders for my stamina while enduro / adventure motorcycle riding and mountain biking, legs used to get gassed really quickly now i can go out for few hours and still be good the next day (M41). Thanks K
A very great explanation also I like how you point out the importance of what the action to raising the heel to add onto a deeper squat is beneficial in the natural function of what develops the legs. Brilliant

@@y.g.1313 That's crazy. 200 in one set would fold me, I'd shit myself inside out if I tried that.
Any improvement? Lol
Would you please explain me how exactly did yiu get that unbelieveable terrible stamina
Excellent content and format. Straight to the point, no lengthy intro wasting time. I'm doing various squats to rehab a badly injured ankle right now so it's a great suggestion from the algorithm for me.
Best fitness channel of youtube hands down
i've been doing normal squats for a year but rarely noticed any significant sensation around my knees ever, did like 1 set of this exercise and i can already feel it in my knees. Thanks for this!
Yeah these really concentrate the force into the quads.
I see no difference
@@proverbalizer squats have knee position limited till your toes but those go ahead of the toes with more pressure
I bought it like in the first seconds but double bought it when you said “bulletproof your knees” and thats what im looking for right now!!! Thanks a lot, I’m gonna check your channel, blessings!
I'm at 150 reps a day now! This is a fantastic mental workout, thank you.

Man, watching you perform these movements is beautiful in a way, I look at you as the peak of calisthenics, I don't see you perform fancy moves like a one hand handstand or fingertip planches, but the way you perform basic movements such as the squat, pushup and pull up, I can only describe it as beautiful, its like watching years of hardwork, repetition and consistency culminate into the smoothest most seamless version of those basic movements and it just looks awesome. I hope to reach your level one day, you're my inspiration
Night Shade, this is exceptionally kind! I truly appreciate it. Not everyone "gets it", so Its really cool when someone does. Much appreciated.
Keep at it and it will come. It's inevitable.
I like that. “It’s inevitable”
Nice comment dude 👌
@@Kboges agree with this guy. You rock dude. Already have made my life better by doing these work outs. Peace

I just wanted to come and say that your videos are super helpful and authentic to my fitness progress which makes me appreciate every time you upload. Have a wonder day
Thank you! I appreciate that.
@@Kboges Hi Kyle! Just wanted to ask you, how many sets/reps of bear crawls should I do a week for shoulder muscle growth. I'm skinny and I need your advice to get bigger, especially in my upper body.
Im sorry, but a channel with 2-3 minutes of straight up, truthful and helpful facts... a unicorn channel! Thank you K Boges, love the content!
Thank you for that! That is super kind of you! Much appreciated, brother. 🙏
This channel came out of nowhere! It’s not everyday there’s a new contender in the fitness space that is contributing value through simplicity! Keep it up KBoges, you’re smashing it.
Wow thank you! I literally owe it all to the audience. Amazing group of people. Without the audience I’m just a guy working out in his back yard. 🙏
I incorporate these into my routine and I’ve noticed a difference in the endurance of my knees during my 5-7 mile stand up paddle sessions.
This is great: I've been dodging the ACL rebuild for over 20 years which I acquired as a consequence of skiing. The idea of bullet-proofing knees via exercise really sounds terrific.
Thanks for the vid!
the more years pass, the harder will your acl be to be healed, you need surgery man if its a complete tear
@@cautarepvp2079 its not, thankfully. :-)
Great exercise!! My left knee was dislocated a few times when I was younger and on some movements, like going down stairs I still feel strain. But with this exercise the movement feels smooth and supportive. Will be doing some work with this one..Thanx!!
That's good to hear. I've jacked both my knees up in grappling, but these feel pretty good for me too!
Knees over toes guy. Check him.out.
We need to see the foot placement on the floor. The knees are unnecessary extending beyond the toes edge.
@@martinkinyua957 Watch the link in the description. Getting the knees far past the toes is the point. This is not dangerous- that's a myth that won't go away.
@@martinkinyua957 that’s the whole point of the exercise lol it’s a myth what you’re saying back then walking would cause knee pain following this myth of not letting your knees over toes now that i do these dangerous movements that you say i can walk mostly if not a 100% pain free
I’m 60 & a hardcore mtn biker & have been looking to add something different to my leg routine, gonna give this a try, thanks K, I love the body weight training you do & you’ve helped me hold on to my strength without destroying my joints
I do about 1000 freehand bodyweight squats, every other day. Sets involve 20 to 30 incline push-ups, then 65 squats as shown in your video.This is continuous for 15 sets of that combination.So were looking at about 300 to 400 push-ups and 975 airsquats, done in 50 minutes.
These none stop reps are great for weight loss and general but not extreme strength.Muscle endurance it's called.
Calorie loss about 600 calories,per 50 minute session.
Any luck?
Can't debate this stuff man, this is gold. Thanks for the videos.
Thanks, Nikolas! I appreciate the feedback and support 🙏
This is the video I never knew I knee ded. Definitely adding this to my training.
HAHAHA awesome, Dean!
Nice pun 😉
@@aweimoleayopeter6960 😁👍 Thanks man
Thx, Kyle! You were my inspiration to quit the gym and CrossFit. Replaced it with bodyweight and ring training. I am still astonished about the benefits. My posture significantly improved. Shoulder pain is gone. Mobility improved. Abs look better. Gained volume in shoulders and arms. Also, I appreciate the simplicity of the weekly routine. No fancy sh*t. Do the fundamentals and that's it. I Love It.
Wow! Thank you so much for sharing this. Way to go! Keep at it and keep me posted. Thanks so much for this comment!
@@Kboges I only dislike leg training. At the moment, I do 750 lunches or squats with a small pause at the bottom. It takes forever. On the other hand it was necessary to unleash the pistol squat with acceptable form. I still have some way to go.
You were doing Crossfit and they weren't using bodyweight/gymnastics? You were getting cheated, dude
@@InvisibleHotdog no, I didn't say that. I quit CrossFit for other reasons
Love your simple, no frills approach. SUBBED!
Please please make a playlist with all conditioning exercises in one place. The content is so nice. It would be awesome to have it in proper playlists.
Noted! Thanks for the suggestion!
@@Kbogesstill waiting
Good to see you realising how powerful this exercise is. In starting it will give your knees feeling of tightness and movement will lack fluidity and elegance. But with time this exercise is the best thing you can ever do to you leg strength. It also engages calves and soleus and with time increase size of calves. Our Indian wrestlers do this exercises in 1000+ reps with super calorie dense diets and rest. Secret to their strength
Thanks so much for this! Yeah it is an awesome exercise! Have you worked up to super high reps?
@@Kboges yeah I am from india (specially from Haryana) so I have seen this since my childhood in open air i along with my friends used to do it until whole body starts sweating ( apart from this squat (BAITHAK in regional Indian language ) we also do SAPATE( Indian burpees) which gives full body workout.
So yeah first some warm up some running 3-5 km depends on weather 😂also. Then sapate dand(Indian push ups) baithak(shown in your video) until it sweats and we start counting when muscles get HOT and pumped upto 100*5 or 250*2 types. I haven’t worked to super high reps like our great wrestlers do
But yeah they do it over a period of 10-15 years since childhood and regularly condition their knees with oiling massaging and stretching with super heavy 5-6k calorie diet(minimum).
So they become super strong and super stamina (long bouts of wrestling)
I personally follow your channel because of unique training style you pick up from different training cultures and bring to us. Was very happy to see Indian exercise here
❤️❤️❤️keep growing
@@noobdev99 Dude this is amazing! Thank you so much for sharing this!

Correct brother ❤❤❤
Back to basics : the solution to many things in life anno 2022.
Keep it simple & eliminate the unnecessary.
Love this. I do body weight squats, push ups, and pull ups 3-5 times a week. 6 sets each. I truly feel calisthenics are the way. I’m 32. I just don’t see the point in lifting heavy anymore. I’d like to preserve my body not tear it apart.
Thanks for this Ro Ro! I totally agree. I love BW stuff. Weights beat me up for sure. Feels good to have everything working well.
Take it from me, someone who got a bulging disc doing deadlifts and then ended up getting ruptured discs from trying to get it fixed...stick to calisthenics! I'd go back in time and change to that only calisthenics plus light high weight reps if i had a time machine :(

Wow thank you so much! I really appreciate this!
Did this for a year after watching this a year ago, it did wonders to my overall endurance and energy all day.
Well done! Glad it worked for you! These were key for building up endurance for me, as well as rehabbing some old injuries. I'm such a fan of this exercise.
I literally just finished a full body workout and saw my wedges and said "I can do some heel elevated squats later today". I then check my email and see this. I get it, I got it, I'm on it!
HAHAH I love when this happens!
I got very very into doing Hindu squats, working up to 500 straight in less than 15 minutes. I can say this: they greatly increase wind and leg stamina, my legs, particularly my quads are genetically immense so they did add size. However, I can run long distances and my quads will grow (high ratio of slow twitch fibers). The caveat is this, definitely do not do that type of volume daily!!!! 2 or 3 times a week is more than enough. My hips and knees definitely started to show signs of overuse.
Same , any sport or exercise I do my quads will grow
I think I have primarily slow twitch muscle fibre
Good shit bro! I haven't seen anyone else talking about this
Old school exercise are still the best. I wonder how many people have left gyms for more traditional work outs. I have done so now for 4 years, I live in central Europe, so in summer its awesome outside, in winter its limited by rain and snow. I do feel that overall I am healthier and train smarter. I am 50 and feel awesome and listen to my body when training.
Peter, I totally agree!
I learn something from you everyday yo. Been doing squats everyday for awhile now. Can’t wait to incorporate this variation! 45 years old and excited to see my knees getting stronger not weaker.
Jimmy! Thanks for the kind words! Enjoy and report back!
Part of my daily routine, both with and without barbells. I keep the barbell weight light, no more than 60 pounds, anything heavier cuts into my reps. I don't rush the reps either, slow and deliberate. Not exactly a time under tension (TUT) rep, but not in a hurry and with no bouncing. PS- I like putting a short length of 2x4 under my heels while doing squats to keep them elevated. 62 years young and loving it. ;)
t bagging lmfao 😭

Stop running so often lol, especially on hard ground like pavement
@@InvisibleHotdog nah, I run 6 days a week and never have knee pain in my life, OP probably a heel striker with unsuitable footwear.
Fantastic and simple video my friend. Solid and concise information. Your videos are in a class by themselves 🙏🏾🙏🏾🔥🔥💯💯
Can confirm!! Game changers for my skateboarding and climbing. Been doing these since last year to try and beat chronic knee pain and haven't had any issues since. Since you're gonna be on your toes for most balance based sports, the specificity is great, and it improves balance on your toes too. 10/10 would recommend!
Cool to hear this helps skateboarding!
You are absolutely right. The transferability and knee health benefits are awesome.
As a Powerlifter, I incorporate bodyweight exercises while I program my workouts. These have been amazing as far as muscle activation/warm-ups/finishers/cardio sessions (not optimal for cardio, but you get the idea). Amazing video.
Thank you for sharing this! I totally agree! I think they are great finishers for powerlifting.
@@Kboges in my humble opinion once you get to overload these (i.e. goblet squats or vest) while having an elevated heel, they are brutal. Thank you for sharing this with more people, who just want a general guide to training.
@@MaD_KiLLR Yeah spot on. These with a kettlebell, or weight vest are really awesome.
Thank you, brother!
I grew up and still live on a high, steep valley side. This didn't meant much to me, until I recognised that people from the flat areas would struggle a lot with simply walking the terrain.
I think luck of location has given me and those around me a degree of natural advantage, as I've never known leg tiredness unless running. But, I will absolutely add this to my routine.
Backwards uphill walking does absolute wonders for your knees, so if you have too much pain doing squats, try to walk backwards uphill until you get strong enough for squatting.
I love it! Great suggestion!
Nice
Just yesterday did the Indian variation of this (baithak), I'm starting to feel pain in different parts of my leg.
Now I'll definitely include it in my workouts.
These are a more stressful variation, so you need to be slow with adding volume.
@@Kboges definitely 👍
Love you videos!
This reminds me of 'Dands' an exercise Indian wrestlers have been doing since ages for stamina and endurance where the knees go beyond your toes. Thanks for shedding light on this movement. 👍
Yeah it’s very popular among Indian wrestlers. Awesome exercise!
Thanks!🙏
To relieve pressure on the knees this exercise can be performed by keeping the bend to a 90 degree angle.
Don't lock out at the top of the upward movement or the downward movement. Aim for a continuous fluid motion.
Slight elevation of the heels also helps with balance for those who find knee bends with flat heels awkward.
There's also the matter of your hip joint. Your foot placement could be different. Most women are anteversion, while men tend to need a retroversion posture.
Appreciate you brother..needed this
I appreciate you bro! Thank you🙏💪
"...Working up to 2 ~ 3 Sets a 50~100 Reps [with] constant tension style so you don't walk out the top that a few days/week & you'll have a pair of legs that are incredibly resilient..."
A really practical & also promising recommendations!
Thanks for your great ideas!
My pleasure, erauqscme! Enjoy!
It’s crazy how much misinformation has been brought to us by the fitness industry. Thank you for adding this one, I’m looking into strengthening my knees. It’s so important.
Thanks, Michael. Yeah it is really wild how much misinformation is out there.
Very informative, and a great video. Too bad more people haven't discovered these. They have changed my life in the fitness world in my late 50's.
So good to hear, Cowboy! Thank you for sharing your experience!
I have been using your exercises to get my stamina up before i return to kicboxing training and honestly this one is so simple and so effective. Just doing 3 sets of 40 as a start and i hope to get it up to 80-100 before i get back into fighting. Thanks dude.
I love it! Yeah it's a classic combat sport conditioner. It will serve you well, Nvl!
how's the progression going?
@@harshitshukla2108 Thanks for asking. I did kickboxing training for about 9 consequtive months, 3 times a week, adjusted well strenght wise after 2 weeks, still my legs were fried for a week after the first session. I wasn't used to 500-1000 squats a week. But the more challenging part was to learn to pace myself and get better at cardio. I thought i was in decent shape starting out oh boy was i wrong. I would really recommend 3 sets of 60-100 squats if you want to have the necessary conditioning. Also, for energy, i had to incorporate more carbs to my diet which lead me to actually gain mass during that time. I am happy enough with my competence now to quit kickboxing to follow a cut with strength training and swimming.
@@nvlarcht Thanks man, I am currently starting again at the after a 6 month gap in training and it feels horrible tbh. My stamina is lowered to such a level that doing bodyweight lunges and squats leave me gasping for air. All my strength in lifts are gone and it feels like I never went to the gym earlier at all. Was looking for a way to increase my stamina and I happened to find this video.
@@harshitshukla2108 good luck buddy, you will most likely catch up in a month or two, hard gained strength is easy to regain. Keep it up!
Guy's got jurassic park for a backyard
LOL 😂
I was paying close attention to everything you were saying for like a good two minutes and then I realised bro hasn’t stopped squatting. Terrific Fitness my friend clap
Without knees over toes guy (Ben patrick) my knees would still be popping and cracking like rice krispies. He introduced me to the deep knee bend philosophy that you are discussing here, as well as the philosophy of training tibialis. Has boosted my performance by magnitudes because I like to do tricks when I jump rope, but you need some very stable knees to do so for long periods of time. Great video coach boges!
He is the MASTER at that!
It's defiantly a neglected area of training that pretty much everyone could benefit from.
I love this vid! Super educational and helpful. I'm curious, have you ever used Next Level Diet? I got a personalized muscle-building meal plan from them and I love it.
Shut up
😂
i stopped doing that two years ago and now i am starting again
i would say its easier to build up reps previous experience normally i could do 500 in one set but now even 200 is a challenge
Its great to find your channel its the best
When the world needs him the most, he delivers again, big up. Time to cut weight and get healthy, away from the powerlifting mindset, thanks a lot!
Thank you dude!
Get after it, brother!
Dude you did 105 reps thats insane I started with you but couldn't go past 20. I love this I feel challenged
Dennis! Keep at it and you will be cranking out sets of 100. It takes some time, so don't rush it, but it's definitely within your capacity.
That is quality content ! I always look for new exercice to strength my knee and this one is fantastic.
Futhermore, it's a functionnal exercice.
Thx you !
Thanks, fufu! Glad you enjoyed!
I've been using these to condition my somewhat creaky knees for Platz-style barbell squatting (which is probably the single best squat style for quad hypertrophy). This is purely anecdotal, but these have helped me a lot with both the movement pattern and with knee health/condition required for this style of squatting.
Hugo, that is a great application for those who lift! Thank you for sharing!
bro lives in paradise
Hahaha yeah man. No complaints. San Diego is a great spot but it has changed a lot. It's not the same place it used to be, but the weather and natural beauty is still here.
I'd still kill for a view like that @@Kboges
Oh I feel you, man. What so cool about this, is it's a little hidden gem in the middle of an old middle class neighborhood. My wife and I used to live a block away and one day were walking around this area and thought it would be amazing if we could get a house on the trail, which is what you see behind my deck. We ended up looking the next day, happened to find this house that just went up for sale like 2 days before, and moved in a month later. What's eve more wild is it was one of the only houses in SD that we could afford 😂 We got SOOO lucky and while the house still needs a ton of work (built in the 60's), I appreciate the little oasis in the back yard every day. @@eliotfaye
One of the best for carving out that teardrop muscle
Yeah it has a long history of that use!
Its awesome that joint / connective tissue training is seeing a resurgence.
My advice to those who have really bad knees:
Start by sitting on the bottom step of your stairs for a few minutes, twice a day. It mimics the deep squat and its very supported.
When that's more comfortable focus on getting up and sitting back down. Within a few weeks you'll be ready to start training with movements like the one in the video.
Love your content, keep up the great work.
Sam this is an awesome suggestion! I hope the right people see this!
That's an interesting suggestion. I've recently been getting back into squatting motions after having my kneecap patched back together, and have been very cautious for quite some time about popping something loose. Gradual build-up of connective tissue is right in line with my needs.
@@stevenscott2136 Great thing about using steps is someone like yourself can use the 2nd or 3rd step to step to start and slowly increase the angle over time into a lower position. Good luck with the recovery!
Once you reach the point at which your knees are over your toes (not past)
then start to bend at the waist and you will be able to go deeper without your knees going past your toes.
@@BWater-yq3jx knees over toes isn't bad, that's another myth
I definitely feel the burn
The burn is real!💪💪
Thank you Kboges!

Totally great exercise. You can do it as you get older, too.
100% so true! Exercises that you can age with are incredibly important.

There is no Hell, unless you are Sartre and believe that Hell is other people. Save it for the storefront huckster church, pal.
I've been doing Hindu squats for many months now, between 450 and 650 in 29 minutes every other day. As you say, build up SLOWLY. If you play around with minutia of form, you will find equal burn in your glutes and hams as in your quads. I use them as main part of my warm up prior to heavy sandbag work. Like running but my knees hate running and love these!
Dude that is awesome! What have you noticed in terms of benefits with volumes that high?
I am so excited to include this - with elevated blocks - in my routine when I occassionnaly walk by in my flat , see you in a while, tks
I'm 64 and do 4 sets of 30 everyday ,along with low impact push ups- 4sets of 50. 💙

Knees on the ground position
Full extension but using a bench,chair,wall
@@natemcdonald8853 oh ok, i see! thanks
@@MutenRoscher 😀
Yes, this is a great exercise. Staying on your toes creates a lot of dynamic tension in the calves, so this exercise will keep a spring in your step, even as you age. You can add other bodyweight movements with this to create a good workout. I would add: bodyweight lunges; and Hindu pushups, which are the same movements you see in Yoga sun salutations; after that, all you need is a bar for some pullups. That's 4 exercises and you've hit the entire body.
Awesome commentary and suggestions! Thanks for this!
I'm glad you mentioned lifting the heels. It really wasn't apparent in the video until the very end and then only one foot.

Bro ngl I was hoping for some bed stamina key excercise but that will do too ig... Thanks!
HAHAHAHAHA! This had me laughing, dude. Glad you enjoyed anyway.
Wow, this is new to me, though I have seen this on the internet every now and then. I'll definitely do this as a leg workout aside from other squat variations. Thank you for this.
Great job making it clear; the purpose between varying rep ranges. I hiked up through Yosemite to the top of Half Dome last month. When planning the trip I thought “I do heavy squats and I’m sure that’ll be plenty for training up to this hike” hahahahaha oh man my quads were ripping off my legs by the time I got the the top. It was an epic and successful day, but I couldn’t train legs for over a week after that. Gotta do high rep squats for sure if I plan to do that again.
Dude exactly! I had a very similar experience when I was lifting. It’s easy to forget that all these approaches are tools for a particular outcome. When you select the wrong tool for the job wow you certainly know it!
Can these be done effectively on a slant board? Excellent content by the way, keep these longevity-targeted mobility routines coming!
100% they are awesome on a slant board.
Thank you for the kind words!!
THANK YOU 🙌
When trainers started saying that it's bad to have your knees go over your toes in a squat I was taken because everything I read up to today has said the opposite. I tried doing the new version of squats and I almost damaged my knees.
As soon as I started doing your version again I saw improvement in everything. Thanks!
Yeah it's a myth that just won't go away 😂 Glad you enjoy these!
Would you recommend elevating the heels for the whole exercise, such as using a plate under the heels? I noticed you were simply lifting your heels at the bottom of the squat.
Yep, that works great. A slant board is an excellent option as well.
I am an Indian, and my father made us do this exercise very often. It is very common here and is also known as Dand Baithak or Uthak Baithak in hindi. Pretty simple but a burning exercise.
Wow that's rad! You father is a wise man!

Hahaha heck yeah! These are amazing and I plan to do them my whole life!
A very great explanation also I like how you point out the importance of what the action to raising the heel to add onto a deeper squat is beneficial in the natural function of what develops the legs.
Brilliant
