    The movement is Hindu Push-up (practiced for ages by Indian wrestlers), which is itself based upon Surya Namaskar from Yoga, which has been practiced for thousands of years in India. So this is a series of yoga poses, with a jump added in the end, that is all.

    This is nothing but " Surya Namaskara" , a yoga pose. Can be translated as Sun salutations. Indians have been doing this excercise for thousands of years.

    Its simpler than surya namaskar, though obviously drawing upon it for content. Indian wrestlers do the dand and the bethak for mega-repetitions, and both those moves are incorporated into surya namaskar.

    No, it´s not. This is a different sequence. squat, jump to squat, straight push up, bear, are not in the sun salutation. Plus according to the book YogaBody: the Origins of Modern Posture Practice the sun salutation appears at the end of the 19th century and is related to Danish and Swedish gymnastics.

    Or just hug a tree, literally. Jump up on a thicker tree, squeeze and hold with your whole body trying to overlap the tree. This engages all the muscles as well and is much simpler and more efficient imo.

A lot of people don't really know how much you can variate bodily exercises with little or no weights using just what's around you and still get great normal body movement workouts. Too much hype into the new machines and technology.
