I know it may sound weired saying this but it's really cool seeing this cool and calm conversation you guys are having and how calm Devon is because there is usually a crowd around Devon when he is talking thanks Ryan for going out of your way to get this behind the scene clips not to sound corny but it feels like I'm in the room as well while this is going on it's cool keep up the good work brother 👍

Thank you brother. Honoured to have you here and thrilled to know you Received enjoying the vid. I too love content like this. True relaxed behind the scenes.

[@kylestudinski9633]

I love how different the Devon is at home, compared to Devon in competition. Wasn't into arm wrestling until I saw Devon do it. This is an amazing look into his workouts.

[@vonkaiser6115]

The concept devon is looking for when explaining non failure training is RPE training that powerlifters use. He does 3rm work, which isnt a REAL 3rm, but maybe an RPE 8 or 9 meaning leaving 2 to 1 reps in the tank. So this way he gets to build strength while not grinding, which allows him to train again in a short amount of time (training to failure takes longer to recover from).

[@jacklabonte6839]

Is what your describing a bit like the "grease the groove" technique. I think I heard about it from reading Pavel Tsatouline(may have butchered his name here). I am really into climbing, and I used to go and do an hour or more of different chin/pull up variations at the gym. Then I heard about this technique. Essentially I set up a pull up bar at home, and throughout the day whenever I would walk by said bar I would do 10 pull ups, which for me was not to hard, and didn't exert me maximally at all. Over the course of the day I might walk by that bar 9 or 10 times, and each time I do the same thing, but never reaching failure. The amount of time between pulls was significant, and so I was rested every time. Anyway, it worked incredibly. My climbing strength and endurance skyrocketed. Would this method of exercises be the same concept devon is using, and that you describe power lifters using?

[@B3NRG]

[@adebih8126]

interesting how devon and todd have different opinion on armwrestling, devon is most about hand and todd is all about arm power and side pressure for me it's more about hand, cause mostly when i can't gain access to my power i will lose and can't even pull... also backpressure helps

Sport specific and refined. Awesome video!

[@Matstarx25]

I still don't understand why he does not increase the range of motion just slightly. There is barely enough time under stress for those muscles with those small lifts. I know he says something about "I wanna be strong up here" But man....i think he would benefit from increased range of motion atleast some of the sets.

[@llr9802]

Maybe these things works for him?

[@douglaswalston3137]

They only have a voice if we listen, which we don’t so they don’t have a voice. Real arm wrestlers know the truth.

[@Entropize1]

I love that Toddzilla thinks virtually oppositely to Devon here. Devon: rising, cupping, pronation, supination. Todd: side pressure, back pressure, arm strength.

[@Nastgardaren]

The dichotomy of hand control and elbow/shoulder drive more or less

[@vermine18]

Somehow its satisfying to watch him workout stay strong Devon!

[@Ewahl91]

I have to say, improving overall health absolutely has to only be good good for ones arm wrestling ability. Oleg isn't the best because he has big compound lift numbers.. however, imagine how he'd improve if he did increase his strength and muscle mass in the larger groups. Of course this simultaneously increases body weight, which is a scary prospect for combat athletes who weigh in and want to face the lightest competition possible. I say get bigger legs, get heavier, face heavier opponents.

[@KFahadNazeer]

The most important equipment here is Piano in background where he actually trains his fingers , forearms , elbows and shoulders while playing any of the Beethoven's Symphony.

[@vaderetro264]

I still think Larratt should improve his general strength, because at the highest level and against an ever improving competition, every little step forward can make a difference.

[@douglaswalston3137]

It still all starts with rising, cup, pronating and supination. If you don’t have those adding general strength like back, shoulder, peck, whatever aren’t gonna matter because if you understand physics and how you grip up. You understand what Devin has said before it’s about connecting as a unit to your arm and hand. From your hand to your feet. He’s just giving us really part in my opinion. I don’t believe it’s the whole no matter what, because he’s preached it’s how tight you can get. He knows that means strength in everywhere that connects from hand to feet. Just like a boxer to punch hard. It comes from feet to hips to back to shoulder to arm through into the hand. Same concept but in reverse like a reverse punch. It’s a pull of a punch. Get it? Soon I’m starting content on this exact sweet science that’s much more in depth. No disrespect. This isn’t my opinion but I’m about to find out if I’m right. And by all accounts I believe I can’t be wrong. I’ve listened to hours and hours of Devin talking other guys arm wrestling watched all the videos. And now I’ll take my opinions and practice them to prove to myself that I’m right. Again no disrespect.

Devon, please try once here while you are still in your prime to get stronger in the gym with Jon Call (Jujimufu) in your tri's and pec's. Juji Iam totally 100% positive would make a mini series in getting you STRONG in those areas. He would be honored and stoked to do this iam sure. You absolutely will be a stronger arm wrestler afterward even though you dont think. I say this bc I want you to beat Denis. What is side pressure? CHEST. What defeats a kings move? A flop press, requiring triceps.

[@giant-killerbeast]

Seconded. ✌👍💥

[@colemcleod941]

Side pressure is not just chest, it's adduction power, which is a combination of rotator cuff strength for adduction of the humerus, and the baseball pitching tendons of the elbow, surgery on that area is often called a 'Tommy-John. The elbow has to be up to par with the chest and rotator cuff, like steel cables, and John Brzenk has that strength in spades. Travis Bagent also has that in spades as well, and he got hurt there - couldn't press his palm against his stomach at all - that's an adductor tear on the inside of the rotator cuff, felt up under the pec and armpit. It hurts in the most vulnerable way, and makes you feel like a real weakling - you cannot arm wrestle with this injury! I don't presume to know more about arm wrestling than Devon, but I do know about specific injuries, and how to build up certain tendons to prevent them. Devon is on the right track for easy strength gaining, 3 rep sets, spaced wide apart for faster recovery ie; faster healing of smaller microtears leads to faster strength gains with less downtime, cycles and short vs long periodization, he knows his stuff, including what the Europeans know. I'd like to know his diet, for bone strength, with respect to the radial fracture of the humerus risk that comes with some of that corkscrewing he does with the hand cranked behind his elbow before starting a press move. Is there boron added to your food Devon? Your bones have got to have crazy density to withstand that.
