The Hindu push-up, also known as dand (Hindi, from Sanskrit दण्ड daṇḍa, "staff"), is a calisthenics exercise which involves performing a push-up while transitioning between the yoga stances known as downward dog and cobra. It is a complex exercise, working abdominals, pectorals, triceps, deltoids, serratus and shoulder girdle. The technique has a long time association with martial arts and combat sports, having its origin in the ancient wrestling traditions of the Indian subcontinent. It was adopted by Bruce Lee, Karl Gotch and many practitioners of judo and wrestling. It has many names, including rock and roll push-up, judo push-up or as Lee called it, cat stretch. The Hindu push-up is related to the yogic sequence of Sun Salutation, which also originates in Indian wrestling. It is also associated to another calisthenic exercise of Indian wrestling, the Hindu squat or baithak. The user stands on hands and feet and raises hips until his body forms a inverted V shape with the body. Keeping his chin up, he bends his elbows and drop his chin towards the floor, after which he swoops his hips under while swinging his chest and head up, raising the head and straightening his arms. Afterwards, the user pushes up with his hip to return to the initial stance.
