When I was growing up, my dad would occasionally challenge me and my brothers to “Indian Wrestling.” The feat involved was the second definition according to Mirriam Webster (i.e. opponents standing statically and trying to pull each other off balance).
I’ve tried to look up people attempting this on youtube and elsewhere without success (it’s always the leg wrestling variety that I find). Does this have a modern non-ethnically-charged name? Do people not do this anymore? I need to know!
I made my step-son aware of that, but he is likely to soon be better at the game. I’m wondering if there are pros in the game of !!off-balancing!
Yup. A lot of pros go onto join Indian Olympic Wrestling team. Case in point https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phogat_sisters
They had their start in Indian wrestling.
