Kuwar Amritbir Singh from Punjab is on a mission to prove that all you need to stay fit is determination
Nineteen-year-old Kuwar Amritbir Singh doesn’t really know what a gym looks like. He can’t describe it to you. But here is what he can do: 118 knuckle pushups in one minute.
He currently holds the World Records of India title for the youngest to perform knuckle push ups in a minute and an India Book of Records for the youngest to perform maximum (35) Superman push-ups in 30 seconds. This year, he has been nominated for the Karmaveer Chakra Award, presented for commitment and courage by walking the path less trodden and initiating a wave of change in society.
Interestingly, this fitness enthusiast from the nondescript village of Umarwala in Gurdaspur district of Punjab, now has a following of 56.9k on Instagram, with followers from all around the world. He also has a YouTube channel focussing on workout techniques minus the frills.
