How Speed Day Works

#armwrestling #speedday

[@erix1384]

You are absolutely correct about the tendon/bone stress vs muscle stress part. In bodybuilding this is actually something we want to avoid, so we do very slow, controlled sets with no sudden movement so the stress is on the muscle. But in armwrestling the opposite is true, where the strength of the connective tissue and bones is arguably more important.

[@normanwilmoth7404]

Damm Mr Todd, I now believe you're a certified genius on top of being a top tier armwrestler. Love your channel Todd, stay strong 💪

[@srplaske]

I concur with the short impulse driving bone and tendon remodeling. It reminds me of papers discussing bone microcracks and thier role in (healthy) bone remodeling, which always involves collagen synthesis... in other words it's like the hammer action of the short duration impulses drive forces into the bone which put enough stress to cause micro-damage, which then calls to action higher collagen synthesis and tendon remodeling along with it. Thank you Louie for the genius and thank you Todd for the adaptation to AW. Awesome stuff man.

Sorry, english isn't my first language, can someone explain with simpler words what this comment implies?

Lmao people are actually arguing with your training methods here? I only read comments for the humor, otherwise you'll run into the experts of everything here lol

Probably some confusion, the Westside barbell system maxs out twice a week...... once lower body, once upper body for powerlifting. Clearly not the same sport :|

Perhaps some got valid points after all todzilla is not a prophet or his words are holy and can’t be disputed specially when other armwrestlers disagree with him,

just got introduced to this style of training. I remember when i started out watching this video and thinking man what is this guy talking about. Now i'm so deep in the training optimization rabbit hole and i've landed upon the same style of training you're utilizing. I'm genuinely learning so much, thank you. Will get on that playlist asap

I have a crane scale like your fancy one....."peak hold" function on mine requires a manual press to hold the highest number....which as you've discovered is useless......next time you buy one.....make sure the function is"peak force" not "peak hold" then you'll have the function you're after

I agree, speed work does affect my tendons and joints more than my muscle fibers. I feel it more in my ligaments during any barbell band speed work than muscles.

Hi, Uncle Todd! I have been following your WSBB program for about 6 mo. Do you recommend always going to 1RM on Wednesday Max Day? Or is it okay to switch it up with slightly more volume on Wednesday, like 3 x 3? Love your videos. XOXO

Makes sense explosion on bench and squats adds power big time. Young men never listen I didn't either in my day. 1 time a week even bodybuilding one muscle group a week in the gym. Example chest monday, back tuesday, arms wednesday, legs thursday, and Friday shoulders. So arm wrestling I'd lay all money on it toddzilla is 100% correct with what he is saying.

[@LilKovy101]

[@rileyneufeld7001]

F(force)=M(mass)A(acceleration) so we're lowering weight but increasing the velocity of reps hence increasing the amount of force we exert to move the weight at a given speed. That hard stop creates a very abrupt end range of motion and exponentially increases mass and results in even more force generated. Using bands with all of this allows constant mass irregardless of gravity or momentum of the weight being accelerated. It also increases tension the more you stretch it, again increasing mass and force. In summary Todd's pretty smart :)

[@MrSepox]

hes a mechanical engineer, looked it up. he knows all about this stuff :D

[@rileyneufeld7001]

@UCaIDN33sAZZi1YO7-GviCTg Todd's speed day he isn't lowering weight to 25% or anything super low he's still working with ~70% of his 1 RM so while it is a lighter weight it's not flinging around a 10 pound weight. it's still fairly heavy and all these other things he's added to it means while it's not nearly as taxing as doing +90% of your 1 RM and it's still getting a great amount of force into your wrist, elbow, shoulder, and lat. I'd even argue that it has more carryover to armwrestling than a 1RM since you're focused on rapidly moving the weight, 1 RM's are great but armwrestling is different than powerlifting for example. With powerlifting you can lift the weight as fast/slow as you want. In armwrestling you have to be fast to even stop the match let alone be offensive off the go.

World elite sprinters at max velocity deal with ridiculously huge forces through their Achilles tendons with each footstep but usually have small skinny calf muscles to match.

[@lucasala9625]

I heard some research about the last comment too! It's well known with calves, if you bounce on the tips of your feet it's basically your strong tendons that store a lot of energy and give it back and the muscle is not very active compared to a control calves raise.

As far as i know "speed day" is mainly used to train your nervous system to activate all your muscles as quickly as possible. Atleast that was what i was taught when i studied for PT 🤷‍♂️ I don't know about strengthening your bones and ligaments, but i guess it's close to how people train iron fist (all the videos people are breaking bricks and other stuff with their bare hands). Similar training method as far as i know. Quick, not hitting to hard to start strengthening the bones in the hand creating all those microcracks in the bones.

[@walterclarke6996]

Damn Tod, you scienced the F out of that!

[@thecosmy1]

Wait a second, so basically if F= m * a, then on max effort day you are basically training the "m" and on speed day you are training the "a" so that is how you get the F stronger ?

[@programaticLearning]

Most people advocate for a controlled eccentric for safety but uncle todd recommends a day solely dedicated to applying "jerk" to the eccentric and concentric motion with jerk being the change rate of acceleration (derivative) much as acceleration is to velocity and velocity is to distance. all with respect to time.... obviously :P

[@haroldflugleman4364]

you're a regular Alfred Einstein

[@seanknot]

power = F x W, pressure is ammount of force over an area or f/a . work = force x distance. in biomechanics if anyone cares :o. kinematics are like small joints like throwing a baseball. waving is another example. Any good movement even segmental (co-contraction is stronger) muscle works with fascia. ( chong xie does hyper fascia training if anyone wants to look at that) (vectors) four properties of force. - magnitude, direction, point of application, line of action. measurinng the liine of action of the force. reaction forces- newtons 3rd law is the force acted on the whole body moving - if anyone cares :D I'm sure i missed some stuff.
