Neil is the greatest commentator possible. Just so knowledgeable, helpful & charismatic!

Nah it's Ryan "The Goat" Bowen

[@cOpEnBaCoN]

Neil listens and actually always seems interested, and he’s a legend himself. Devon>Todd.

[@Flornmonk]

Neil's a great armwrestler. He's been pulling for years.

[@bloroxcleach3439]

I think Neil once beat todd

[@toopkarcher]

Blorox Cleach not sure about that. I know Todd beat him in an epic 5 round supermatch.

[@cOpEnBaCoN]

Blorox Cleach wouldn’t surprise me if it has happened, but the only match I know of between the two Todd narrowly won in 5.

Well normally people just use the four arm because that is more dependent on weight

[@andrewp.9541]

I've got friends with decades of experience in pro armwrestling. They say they're still learning how to armwrestle

[@radoslavstoev4550]

A lot of people are overcomplicating it though. Most people are only strong in one move and may be a couple of different variations of the sam move.

[@Raddland]

Best vid about the hook I've seen so far. For a non arm wrestler, it is oddly hard to visualize without actually being able to feel it. I liked when Neil talked about where he felt the pressure. Made it easier to visualize.

[@dangolfishin]

At first I read the title as "How to Hook Devon Larrat", I thought, "yeah good luck with that". 😆

[@neilpickup-supernaturalstr3157]

dangolfishin did you doubt me mate 🤔🤣😂🤣

[@snap-off5383]

in about 1 year my armwrestling IQ has now caught up to the point where I think I understood about 80% of what Neil was saying and about 75% of what Devon was saying. A year ago I wouldn't have understood 30%. Devon is a great teacher and ambassador for the sport, the days of armwrestling opponents who rely on strength alone is probably waning quick.

[@del132]

In the early 00's the UFC had technique instructionals during their broadcasts that shifted a lot of bloodthirsty casuals over to being more educated fans of MMA. I love seeing these, I'm super pumped for the future of WAL, especially with Devon's charisma pulling in more fans for the sport.

[@RDS_Armwrestling]

Neil's comment for his wife about 6 inches is absolute gold

[@thebreadman1346]

That part at the end was very reminiscent with his match against hutchings. He had the hook, and then transitioned into an outside move. I'm assuming that was by design

Great video gents, and love Neil’s brief humour in this one lol. Question, I’ve seen a lot of pullers wear a sleeve on their opposite arm. What the reason?

[@neilpickup-supernaturalstr3157]

Levan Saginashvili მსოფლიო ჩემპიონი Thanks for the advice Levan, hope you & your Family are well mate 😉

[@lukashensley8150]

There are so many styles of hooking. I Think the strap with shoulder commitment usually ending in a press is the best for using height like devon has because you can really get ontop of someones arm. For todzilla, without shoulder commitment at all, his compact frame and short arm driving straight sideways instead of down is perfect for someone for a more average height.

[@thepiecesfit11]

Lovin the tricep press right now. Total body position.

Devon is a my favourite arm wrestler

[@HyakuJuu01300]

This is a much better explanation video than the Kingsmove one. There are many, many people who don't even know that armwrestling as a professional sport exists, so it's best to explain even the most basic things in great detail to them. This video got it right; "what's a hook?", "how to apply the hook?", "what are the advantages and disadvantages of the hook?" etc. etc. Imho the Kingsmove video was way too technical, and there wasn't much to learn for an outsider to the sport. What I believe should be done is to make a video explaining the very basics of the sport: "What *is* armwrestling?". And by basics, I mean it. Using the whole body, armwrestling rules, armwrestling strengths; what is cup, post, pronation, supination, how an armwrestling match should start, when does an armrestling match end, what are consideres fouls, warnings etc. etc. An "Armwrestling 101", if you will.
