Originating it Yakutia , SIBERIA, Russia, MAS wrestling has become a national pastime to Russians as football or baseball is to Americans.
“MAS,” literally meaning ‘stick’ in Russian, is a contest in which the strongest men and women are pitted against each other to rip a stick away from the opponent.
The brawny 2-man tug-of-war faces opponents with their feet along a footboard which is the only divider between them. While there are few rules to the game and is seemingly simple, it requires a lot of strategy.
MAS Wrestling is a Yakutia Cultural Sport that has been introduced to me by International Mas Wrestling Federation (IMWF) in Russia. This sport is a natural adjunct to strength training whether for strongman/woman, power lifting, wrestling, grappling etc. The goal is to get this sport into the Olympics. With this goal in mind our organizational process is set up address international guidelines and regulations with integrity and fair practice. I invite you to join me and my family in representing a noble sport that we stand behind.
