I built my own Mas Wrestling board a few years ago and me and the guys break it out sometimes if we’ve had a few beers and we have a dispute to settle about who’s stronger. This may be a dumb question, but am I asking for a back injury by pulling from a completely bent over position like you would in the sport of Mas Wrestling?
I have no idea what "Mas Wrestling" is. I'm not a big fan of touching men anyway.
The advantage of Mas Wrestling is that you're probably only going to touch a man's hands. You put your feet against a board between you and grab a wooden dowel. Then you attempt to pull your opponent over the board while keeping the dowel in your hands.Quote:

Alright, maybe you could end up with a dude landing on top of you.

There isn’t actually any touching, you’re both sitting facing each other with your feet on a board between you, trying to pull a stick out of your opponents hands (or pull your opponent over the board). I found it to be like a long range-of-motion deadlift with some twisting and jerking... I guess I’m answering my own question here...
In that case, I'm still out.
What about ear-pulling?Quote:

Okay boys, enough of this stupidity.
Me and the dudes will have to give that a try! That is, if I don’t herniate my L5 Mas Wrestling first...Quote:
