ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Taekwondo black-belt Ahmad Amin Bodla has broken the Guinness World Record for most squat thrusts in one minute with 40 pounds weight on the back.

Talking to APP Bodla said he did 23 repetitions while the previous record was 21 by Paddy Douyle of England.

Bodla said it was a great honor for him to make records for Pakistan. “I work very hard for these performances. I have achieved a lot of international recognition over the last few years.” he said.

However, Bodla was disappointed that in Pakistan you don’t get reward for these activities.
“The priorities of the concerned sports authorities do not facilitate
athletes other than cricketers,” he said.
