Your legs will atrophy with that change in stimulus regardless of how many hindu squats you do.
Bodyweight squats as cardio will be highly stressful on your knees as they track way over the toes when performing a hindu squat. It’s not something I would do regularly or for super high reps.
I would suggest kettlebell swings as an alternative that can be done in your living room.
I’m not sure why you got the impression that I’ll be doing Hindu squats. My “bodyweight squats” use the same posture as my front squats (without the bar). In any case, I’ll give kettlebells another look. Thanks.
that...shouldn’t be possible I don’t think. You have to move your center of gravity forward without a counterbalance. I assumed hindu squats because that’s what people normally go for with high rep bodyweight squats.

This is kind of what it looks like (except I put my hands behind my head or cross my arms). I’m fairly sure my knees don’t go over my toes by more than an inch or two.

have you tried pistol squats? Doing those while holding a kettlebell has a better chance of maintaining your leg strength.
