There are few old sayings in Russian representing the idea "Тише едешь, дальше будешь"( the calmer you go, the further you get) "Скорость хороша при ловле блох"( the speed is good when you catching fleas) those remind you that a life is a marathon and you don't sprint marathons

[@Querens]

@@kaanozk if some dummies do it wrong doesn't mean that crossfit is responsible. Crossfit is a specific kind of load which includes explosive strength and stamina at the same time. Super cool style, just yet again-- don't push yourself to the limits! Warm up, stretch out, take easy steps

[@ConnoisseurOfExistence]

Good advice, not only for armwrestling. In fact, I think that testing your 1 rep max do not improve your strength at all. Swithing between 5 and 3 reps each week improves your strength more optimally.

[@StrongerThanBigfoot]

I never max out. I always cycle between 3,5, and reps

[@lmdoinraysmom]

Короче он рассказывает как боролся с Цыпленковым в 2018 и проиграл. Поехал в Россию и просто слушал, учился. Он думает, что Русские и Американцы по разному подходят к тренировкам. Если у них тренировки по принципу «нет боли нет достижений», то чему он научился у нас это то, что стабильный прогресс лучше. То есть работать на тренировках не до отказа, а так чтобы успевать восстанавливаться. Например если в спарринге на тренировке он выкладывается на 95% и не более, с железом на 90%, то на соревнованиях он может показать самый лучший результат.

He’s so much more muscular than 2018-2019 it’s not even close. Look a his initial vids with Juji in 2019 compare to now.

[@lotaryguy12]

Depends on where you're looking. His forearms are definitely bigger than ever, but if you look at when he went against Pushkar, & when he went against Lupkes and Travis in Dubai, his biceps were quite a bit bigger. Had a bit more chest too. Current Devon is more specialized. He was a bit more well rounded back then. Which came in handy and gave him more room for mistakes in a match.

Yes. Be very careful not to over do it. Know your limit. You want to think longevity. Improvement over time. Slow but progressive. Inch by inch. Day by day. His mount everest analogy was perfect. You don't want to burn yourself out and die half way. You have to save something for the next day so you can reach the summit.

[@jeffsadowski7759]

In playing drums we increase our speeds by getting better at our form and by going slower. Speed comes naturally with the proper technique. Maybe just like your 70% today is your 68% tomorrow. It's a relative percentage that moves up with you in time with muscle memory and tiny increments. Funny how that works...Thanks we love u man:)

[@halfpipefreak]

[@orbyztam]

Yo bro. For sure do not randomly put your intro at 1:20 in a 5 minute video. Ruins the entire thing.

[@mrbong123]

I don't care what you're doing, 1 rep maxes over and over again wreak havoc on your joints. At that point it's just a waiting game for injury. What he's basically saying is and my powerlifting pals will like this comparison, if he is always in a strength block he doesn't really peak besides for a match and since he's doing low impact exercises like arm wrestling static holds and short ROM lifts they're much less stressful on the body vs large compound lifts which inevitably will wither away your joints had you stayed in a strength block periodization for as long as he is. Also he's said many times he drinks fish oil like water. So he knows the importance of omega 3's and joint lubrication.

Wow Devon. I have watched you over many years. Not because arm wrestling interests me, but because of your personality. This is a side of you I have never seen before. What a great way to reinvent yourself.

[@tuhaggis]

This approach to training reminds me a lot of what Pavel Tsatsouline was talking about when he went on Joe Rogan.

[@quierodesign3958]

You are looking at the greatest armwrestler ever, because being the greatest isn't about peak strength or longevity, but about who you are. But this dude has bags of strength and longevity too.

[@maalikserebryakov]

“Being the greatest isnt about peak strength or longevity, but about who you are” Ultimate cope from a Larratt fangirl after Denis and Levan the east euro champions humiliated and broke Devon. Hahahaha. Cry. *your guy talked trash and lost everything* Levan = GOAT of arm wrestling.

[@NjH1781]

For me building confidence is key, push the limit okay but hitting a wall everyday and losing was a psychological mill stone.

[@triggeredbyeverything2580]

Confidence is shit if you injure your swlf

[@leapingfury]

The best Russian Olympic powerlifters mostly do a heavy set of 1/3 to 1/2 the reps they're capable of and then they rest 5-15 minutes or longer. They're not tired after their training. This is how you gain neuromuscular strength. I guess armwrestling is similar.

[@shakya00]

"mostly do a heavy set of 1/3 to 1/2 the reps they're capable of " Could you reformulate, I didn't understand this.

[@leapingfury]

@@shakya00 I meant if the maximum reps they can do with a given weight is 10, then they will do 3-5 reps and then rest 20 minutes and then 3-5 more. Or if the maximum reps they can do with a given weight is 5 then they will do 2 reps and rest. The goal is to be able to do alot of reps over the day with very little chance of injury.

Between Devon, John, and Engin, the amount of knowledge and experience is unfathomable. 3 true leaders of the sport that only want it to get bigger. They are always looking to help other arm wrestlers advance. All are definitely on the Mount Rushmore of Arm Wrestling.

[@GSPfan10]

Lookup "Firas Zahabi never be sore"

[@fistoftulkas7335]

The problem for Devon though, is that this approach to training gave him the opportunity to be even lazier. Eastern-european may not always go to failure, but look at how they train, using powerlifting or regular gym lifts, to strenghten their entire body. That works, and that's why they're the strongest around. Devon does none of that. Learn from him, but also look carefully at what the strongest dudes are doing, it's not rocket science people.

[@levondarratt787]

basically, they are Soviet Union Olympic weightlifters, that train in teams....All these countries used to be part of that disciplined approach, and still have it. They are teams. We in NA are lone wolves. Even LEvan has a team.

1 rep max is too dangerous anyway. It should only be reserve for competition and even then if you want longevity that might not be very smart .

TLDR never train to failure.

[@ganuv]

As a Russian in my opinion I think the approach of the North American arm wrestlers is wrong, in North America they think that by lifting weights, it will make them strong arm wrestlers which in my opinion is a big mistake, so the whole approach of training in North America is wrong in my opinion.

Yes but also no. If you wanna strive to reach the top like Levan (which I know we never will), you gotta break PRs. You gotta get uncomfortable and push your boundaries.
