A video of a woman doing push-ups with a soldier was shared on social media. The video captures her competing with an army official in an area covered with knee-deep snow.
Fitness coach and Instagram user Neha Bangia shared the video. She also added a descriptive caption along with her it. “Make some noise for our desi boy! It was such a thrill to do pushups at -16 temps, chillai kaalan! Where it’s extremely difficult for us to spend just a few days out there in that brass monkey weather, they stay there all year round, and they do it all happily,” she wrote.
“I was just making my pushups video, and the fauji bhai standing behind in the video told me ‘humne yahaan kisi ladki ko pushups karte hue kabhi nahi dekha, hum roz kasrat karte hain kyunki thand se bachne ka yeh best tareeka hai yahaan’ [We have never seen a woman do push-up here. We do push-ups as it keeps us warm in the cold],” she added.
She also added that it was an honour for her, and she has “All respect for them”.
