@@monolithe00 I mean Juji started Arm Wrestling with Devon Larratt at age 35/36 so Brian's not to far off his age. Plus I would imagine it would be easier to use things you learned in Strongman to your advantage. Brian is in crazy good shape for his age and size, despite the fact that at 400lbs he's not FAT he's just built really big. I mean can you imagine the amount of power just Big Shaw's arms have from what 2 decades of doing strongman events a lot of which requiring some form of arm strength. As Derek said, it would be hard for Brian to break his arm, and in order for Brian to break his own arm he would have to do some extreme movements not meant for the human body. I'd say his arm size might be a big of a disadvantage but look at guys like Devon Larratt and Jeff Dabe who both have MASSIVE arms.

I could not bench without my tendons failing on me for a few weeks. It was much later that I learnt about the importance of arm wrestling rehab along with how to actually practice properly on the table that it started to go away. My arm wrestling practice usually goes up to an hour now on the table with no pain and I can easily get like 4 to 5 days of solid table time with no pain. Like all things, you have to get used to it. For alot of people, they leave it cuz they can't bare the pain. But for me armwrestling is the most euphoric feeling in the world.

I like Larry wheels but he's really impatient and can't wait to just use all his power on everything without taking the time to break it down and understand the details. I feel like Brian has a mind that will figure out every part of this thing and because of that his progress is gonna be so fast. Because he already has the strength, that's not something that's gonna be holding him back much, but because he has a sharp and deductive mind, he's not 'muscling' as much as others would. He's figuring it out and giving himself time and that's so much fun to see. He'll be crushing people really soon!

Such a huge difference between Brian's questions and interaction with Derek, and Larry Wheels bored nodding when he had the best talent trying to teach him their ways! As a strongman rather than a glorified gymrat, Brian is focusing on the "movement", he wants to move like Derek does, rather than muscle his way out. he isn't in a hurry to showcase his strength. Usually when you get a "gym strong" heavier guy into a dojo, he keeps trying to muscle his way out of positions rather than learn to move correctly.

Derek 100% right to focus on backpressure and avoid pressing. But damn, if Brian learned an explosive shoulder press coming almost right at you that would be scary as hell.

Not really scary, he just does not have the conditioning to put the power behind, his elbow would not hold to his triceps and shoulder. More scary would be his low hand top roll in strap with long fingers and forearm.

Thank you, Brian Shaw, for giving this sport your attention. You were the first person I watched that got me into exercise, and later into strongman. Now, as my hobbies have expanded into powerlifting and armwrestling, it gives me so much joy to see you here, growing, learning, and giving a new sport a chance. It makes me happy beyond words.

Great video. Derek is a very good teacher. Brian couldnt have picked a better guy to try and learn since they are similar in size. I hope Brian really gets interested in armwrestleing. Its my favorite sport to watch. Brian could level up quick with they way he is dedicated to whatever he does.

I can already tell that Brian has the muscle connections, size, and intelligence to be extremely good at armwrestling. I really hope he dives into the sport, its getting more popular and bigger than ever, you can make real money at the high end, and you can compete into old age.
