It’s almost aggravating how humble Devon is. “A guy who likes to arm wrestle” as his introduction and he’s been on the most elite military operating team for most of his adult life. You can just trust a guy that doesn’t fluff himself in anyway.

[@Martinkuhnemma]

He is a killer in every aspect. Crazy killer spirit. And so humble and such a family guy. Very incredible.

[@Dmgolfer22]

And people buy into the character he plays hyping a match and say he needs to be humbled lol. 😂

[@albertlevins9191]

The good news is for his fans. After everyone finishes throwing shade... Devon usually wins. I dig it.

A lot of it is what interests Rogan the most. Maybe he doesn't care much for arm wrestling.

After listening to this I understand why he has the nickname no limits, what a champ, vet, idol, some one decent to look up to, a real man. Cheers Brian for putting him on the podcast, this has been one of the best ones yet. Arm-wrestling would still be in the dark ages if it wasn't for this technical mastermind, always rising the irony.

[@Midnight_Murph]

This is great and I think this is what this channel should be. You don't need to have constant podcasts like its your only venture forcing it. When you have these great folks visiting or near or even on their site, get in the pod time. Feels natural and is awesome content.

[@johanbarnard3435]

Would take allot of time before Brian could beat Levan. He still looks awkward in the movements. Remember it's more than just raw strength. He has the potential but needs to build up the skillset and become comfortable on the Table 1st

[@pietrolauria9001]

I am a young Italian who works as an orthodontist and I am passionate about songwriting and languages and probably because of this my KZbin algorithm started to suggest me, together with Tik Tok, videos of this Canadian armwrestler, probably for his command of language. Now I find myself listening to him speak in a podcast (3 weeks ago I didn't even know he existed). The Internet is a wonderful place.

[@gnovincejr2]

It can't come quick enough....seeing Brian arm wrestling! So intrigued!!! Another piece to take this sport to an even higher level! Pretty cool!

[@mister.e2751]

devon is not just a guy who likes arrmwrestling, he IS armwrestling, he is a super special person that makes armwrestling super fun to watch and to dive in. I started armwrestling because of Devon and I know Im not the only one. If it woudnt be because of Devon, armwrestling would be dead

I love this I have been a fan of Brian since the very beginning of his career I was an active member of a popular strength forum over the years and Shaw was always the horse I backed and I said from day 1, this guy has the mentality to be the very best and he proved me right I have also watched devons career closely and remember the sport when he was raw, but not quite at the top. Then from 07-08 he just stepped it up You need to believe you can achieve greatness and that's what all these champions have in common. Plenty have great genetics, but not everyone will be a champion. It's a different mindset Awesome podcast

Im from the ottawa area, i found armwrestling in 2004 through the internet. Eric Rousin posted something, i started going to practices on saturdays at mooneys bay beach in ottawa, i had no idea i would be pulling and learning armwrestling from Devon. I still have my table i bought off him. Great guy.

[@TRIIGGAVELLI]

Travis. Travis is gold no matter what forum he's on.

[@Dmgolfer22]

Thought he started in mid 30s

[@flowerofash4439]

he definitely should invite famous puller from his own country other than derek

[@Armwrestling_Dad]

John Brzenk paved the way, Devon Larrett widened the rode and put up billboards. Without John and Devon following after him, the sport would be a lot smaller, and much more obscure. We all owe them big time. I just met John Brzenk last week, I’ll meet Devon one of these days.

[@AdamLighter1]

Its great to see you respecting the sport for what it is and accepting that there is an obssessive level of commitment needed to be considered elite. A lot of other strength athletes dont really accept it and I appreciate you for doing it.

[@2DReanimation]

1:06:20: That building a base to build a peak is a really good concept to have! I've just AW'd for 2 years and it feels like I'm all over with my strength level still, but as long as you just focus on the basics you will improve, even though there will be valleys between the peaks. And polishing your strengths is something that's really helped me, as even though I began with strong hands, even more solid hands doesn't hurt -- more strength is definitely never a weakness, even though it may not directly translate, and your weaknesses gets attacked even though you have great strengths in some areas. Oh and thank you for this feast of a podcast!

Strength is the most versatile adaptation that has the greatest impact on everything else. Of course there is carry over among strength sports, it applies to ALL of life.

[@sagnorm1863]

Moderate strength is peak health. Everyone should be doing it. Moderate meaning around 400lb deadlift. But competition strength is not healthy.

[@thestonksmarket1897]

Okay cmon… I love strength as much as the next guy but the single adaptation that is most versatile is EASILY intelligence. And I’m no genius I just know that’s true.

[@allylilith5605]

@@thestonksmarket1897 yes, but strength is much easier to build and may well be second after intelligence. a born genius will remain a genius in most walks of life without really trying, while someone with elite strength genetics may never even discover them when he is on a vegan diet with the biggest workout being driving to the office and pushing the elevator button

[@Chris_Bower]

I remember starting to follow strongman and armwrestling around the same (2011). Brian Shaw and Devon Larratt were actually the two guys in those sports that I followed closest.
