Travis Talks: How To Be A WORLD CHAMPION Armwrestler

[@zerox615]

When travis is serious, he means business. The guy is a walking encyclopedia when it comes to arm wrestling. This video is gold.

[@GangdamStyle20]

Your absolutely right. Travis is a very smart armwrestler with his own unique philosophie. In another video he noticed how BOTH straps go under the wrist of Oleg Zhokh. And hey John Brzenk is listening carefully to his seminar :-)))

Travis has one of the coolest, likeable, most charismatic personalities ive ever seen. He has a very magnetic persona, and the way he talks makes you cling to every word, hes actually a great public speaker.

It's a sport of so many different styles and strengths and on any given match a top guy can lose to a lesser guy. It really is a technical sport and not just about strength at all 😜

@@armwrestlingfan6804 oh ya booy strength is never a weakness , I have good strength for lifting heavy weights and it's a matter of getting the strength out in arm and techniques .for its practice because I'm new to this really so gotta get table time in and I see many strong big guys do well in this sport. Larry wheels is going to be a top guy in next couple years as well... Strength is never a weaknesses. A wise man alllways says this.

[@erich7662]

This shocked me. I thought this would be "pretty good." I didn't realize it would be extraordinarily thorough, understandable, helpful, interesting, and fun! Never knew how I felt about the guy. Today I became a huge fan!

[@sethgilbertson2474]

That was one of the most straight forward, clear descriptions of personal technique and justification based on personal experience I have heard any arm wrestler give. Whatever your opinion of Travis might be, he is an excellent teacher! He’s a pretty cool dude too...

[@benjamindegroat2329]

Travis is a real class act! Amazing teacher and even apologized to everyone when he cussed in front of kids. Great human being and elite arm wrestler 💪🏻

[@Demidar665]

been doing this since i heard him say it the first time, and guys, the towel thing ? if you really use it, works alot better ! it targets alot of the minor fast twitch muscles in the hand and forarm because of the unequal grip , compared to a straight grip with a gripper. Thats why it works so well. And ive been doing this for a little over a year

[@Nick-cp8wf]

Awesome presentation. Grippers have gotten my hands pretty darn strong. A lot of armwrestlers like to discredit them but if you do them right your finger containment and hand durability/strength will skyrocket. Its not a necessity but if you can close highlevel grippers at a relatively wide set then its more power to you. Crushing the towel at a max effort is surprisingly an amazing way to build the hand/forearm. Using the towel to grease the groove when emulating the set grip, closing your thumbs, closing your hand, is a great way to get use to building strength/speed and power in that motion. Anything you can get stronger is of course an advantage. Having a rock for a hand only can help in the set grip and usually doesnt give your opponent an opportunity to settle into their strengths. Any way to build momentum before the go is a huge advantage. More to learn.

[@TravisBagentUnfiltered]

Great share, thank you. (Gary)

[@Smootles89]

Travis was one of the few that got me more interested in arm wrestling as a teen. He is always so entertaining but also so dam intelligent in the sport. An amazing amount of free info that anywhere else I would have to pay for. Thanks my dude you are a true legend and have helped so much in paving the road that made arm wrestling today

[@michaelfournier3948]

Travis really is a god damn beast. Would love to see him make it to the top again.

[@StephenDoty84]

The towel tip alone is worth the price of admission. I've been doing it the past two days. It's great to play with like a dog chewing on a bone; it gives a good hand and wrist pump. The white rags they sell at Costco are the perfect size.

Travis is my 2nd favorite AW.. Just his character is interesting. He will mouth off at you to get in your head n phyc you out. On the other hand hes a humble dude.

[@zwigoma2]

I've been watching a shit load of arm wrestling lately and i've noticed that the people that keep their eyes on the referee to say go, ALWAYS get the best start, which makes a lot of sense because your going to see him before you hear him.
