8 Ways To Build Up Your Stamina Like An Indian Army Soldier

Army is one of the first organisations to extend a helping hand to anyone in need, be it during natural calamities or other missions. While many of them run out of endurance, our soldiers never back off, let alone the point of safeguarding borders like Siachen for months. No wonder how our soldiers are able to cope with the needs of people. Their stamina defines their extent to help, who need to be physically and mentally alert at all times.

Stamina is one’s ability to sustain a physical or mental effort for a long period of time and our soldiers are full of it. Every day, not only do the soldiers get tougher, faster and more efficient but discover who they are and what they can become.

While there are many tricks to increase one’s stamina, here’s what our soldiers follow during PTEs:

  1. Warm-up and Stretching: Walking briskly for five minutes or sprinting up to 100 metres is a good start for the day. This is followed by stretching of the.
  2. Interval Running: In interval running, you alternate between, sprinting, jogging and running. Walk for a few minutes, then start jogging and then sprint coming back to walking again. Interval training is the best option to increase your running stamina.
  3. Chin-ups, Sit-ups and Push-ups: These are to be done as many as you can in one minute. The more you are able to do, the more will be your stamina. Increasing the number of sets periodically and doing at least one more than that of yesterday will give a good boost in long run.
  4. Chest-touches: Make yourself in push-up position. Now, instead of doing push-ups, touch your hands to your chest altering between both the hands. At any given time, only one of your hands will be experiencing the weight of your body. Do as many as you can in one minute.
  5. Swim: If swimming is your hobby, it gives you an upper hand over others. Swimming warms up your whole body in one go. So yeah, you a replace points 1 and 2 with swimming.

This concludes the warmup session of the daily exercises. This is then followed by these exercises:

  1. Forward rolls and Back rolls: While most of the time, it is a punishment in the military, it is one of the best exercises to increase stamina. Rolling forward using your spine increases the endurance. Do it as many as you can in one minute.
  2. Squats: Raise your arms at your shoulder level in front. Keep your feet at least one meter apart. Now go down laying all your pressure on your thighs and slowly come back up. This should be done in sets of 4 with 15 squats each. This increases your weight lifting strength using your thighs.
  3. Stair climbing: Do this with your paws. Pick up a staircase which has 10-15 steps depending on how much you can and start going up and down using just your paws. And – no break until you come back down. Do 4 sets of 15 climbs each for optimum results.

Finally, after every exercise session, it is time to cool down your body. Perform a full-body stretch while holding for 5 seconds each. Then rest or meditate as you prefer.
