How to do StrongMan MAS Wrestling

01
Setup
Sit on the ground facing your opponent, bracing your feet firmly against a shared foot board with knees bent.
02
Setup
Grasp the MAS wrestling stick with an overhand grip, hands close to the center, ensuring a secure hold.
03
On the signal, initiate a powerful pull, driving through your heels into the foot board and leaning back slightly to engage your entire posterior chain.
04
Maintain a strong, rigid core and a neutral spine throughout the pull, actively engaging your lats and biceps to draw the stick towards you.
05
Continue to pull with maximum effort, aiming to either dislodge the stick from your opponent's grip or pull their body over the designated line.

Tips

Prioritize an unbreakable grip; imagine your hands are fused to the stick, constantly squeezing to prevent slippage.
Utilize powerful leg drive by pushing hard into the foot board, transferring that force through your hips and core into the pull.
Initiate the pull with your back and lats, then coordinate with your arms and core for a synergistic full-body effort.
Anticipate your opponent's movements; sometimes a quick, explosive pull is effective, while other times a steady, grinding pressure works best.

Common mistakes

Rounding the back compromises spinal integrity and reduces pulling power; keep your chest up and maintain a neutral spine by engaging your core.
Relying solely on arm strength quickly fatigues the grip and biceps; integrate leg drive and a strong back pull to distribute the effort across larger muscle groups.
Losing tension in the core allows power to dissipate; brace your abdominals tightly as if preparing for a punch to transfer force efficiently from legs to arms.
