I did a couple armwrestling training sessions with Allen almost a decade ago, and I learned more in a couple hours than I have in 10 years of watching youtube videos. He's a wealth of knowledge and a STRONG dude!

Never arm-wrestled a day in my life I watched the whole video. Love the nuances. I’m gonna wrastle my wife!!!!

Love how he didn't move the second time, and he put his hand lower than where it was. He didn't move lmao

Man Allen Fisher is a legend, but I don't like how he flash pinned you out of nowhere during the demonstration. I've seen many injuries caused by similar pulling and it's not good for the joints or muscles, since you weren't loading/ expecting it. There's a good reason why the more experienced armwrestler should hold instead of flash pinning. I believe Allen had good intentions, but he shouldn't have gone about it that way. You took it like a champ man 💪

@1:55 that wasn't where his hand originally was. The instructor is wrong here. He's full of shit about his saying he can pick up on things that are not level. That's called an opinion or observation. He's not that magical folks

You literally did not move. At all. Watch his hand compared to the roof. You stayed locked like a mannequin. 🤥

He sounds knowledgeable but also sounds like a huuuuge tool. Good on Etienne for standing PERFECTLY STILL lol.

Sounds like he’ll ask you questions, and say you’re wrong just so he can explain something. (He’s obviously a genius at the craft, but he sounds like he’s really impressed with himself. )

His knowledge is so deep. 😅 This guy could get to the point in two minutes but he just likes to hear himself talk.

nah dude you didnt move from when he touched your hand until he came back your finger was parallel with the cable line on the roof, hes in trying to get in your head. I've watched it 4x and you didnt move maybe a centimeter

Would have loved to have been there. Never would have this knowledge without this kind of video. Thanks for posting.

What an absolute privilege it was to learn from this thanks Allen Fisher/ guys!

Allen is like the modern Oracle at Delphi, but for armwrestling

I learned everything I know from the 1987 training video Over the top

A wealth of knowledge, it's gotta be hard as a newcomer, you got all the og's trying to tell you things, huge egos and a bunch of pissing contests but that's kind of what the sport is I guess. You did an amazing job of just being the student.

This type of training isn't for everyone but if you can get into the same headspace, it can be game changing.

I feel like I'm a professional after watching this, I never thought there was this much detail, I now respect Lincoln Hawk a lot more. I'm headed to the nearest bar to practice! 😂

He actually did not move. Look carefully at his hand at 1:39 against the trim of the garage and then look where Allen places pulls it down to at 1:56. Haha sorry video doesn't lie.

He actually didn’t move mr know it all

Allen is a legend and certainly incredibly knowledgeable, but his teaching / lecturing style is incredibly grating and off-putting haha.

Allen Fisher, man I hate guys who teach like him, All you're thinking about is how annoying he is and how you just want to get away from him the whole time. An awful teacher

This is the kind of guy you want to train you, mind like Devon and the killer instinct to win. He's a champ because he has an edge. That's what all champs have, the sharpest edge possible

A lot of great knowledge ,, this could have been put on DVD and made money. But they give it for free. Thanks Men !

He never moved

Crazy. There was always that one guy at school who.. whether it's genetics, technique or just.... general baddassery that could Arm Wrestle so freaking well, and even if the biggest guys did beat them , it was a huge battle. I'd love to know the science behind it.

Well now I know I don't wanna train with fisher. I mean his record shows his level, but Jesus dude.

he can see the house is not leveled just by looking at it, yet he moves Etienne's hand out of the original position 5 inches, saying he moved it.

Fisher seems like the kind of tool that wants everyone to know just how great he is, and he'll talk down to you to do that. He likes the sound of his voice, and spends a lot of time talking himself up while making up phony criticisms before he's even made a point.

Lessons from a legend

Ladies and gentlemen this is called grandiosity

This was Over the Top.

I respect Allen's ability. At the same time he is an egomaniac. There are more unassholed ways of teaching someone.

The bicep muscle insertions are incredible on both of these guys, but especially the arm wrestling whisperer. No tendons. All muscle belly.

I never thought there were so many factors in just even the slightest tilt and position .gonna have to watch this like 5 times and take notes .

Great job Ethan 😭

What a great mind to listen to, so much experience 👍 Thanks for sharing 👊

Bro totally made the shit up about you moving your hand.

“Tell me what’s wrong?” I HATE when people do this. They want to tell you something, but they want you to try to GUESS exactly the answer they are holding in their head.

Great video. Knowledgeable man he is. Thanks for sharing.

The word you were looking for is inquisitive Allen, but the first thing I would have noticed is his knuckle height. With his arm to the front of the pad he’d probably want his entire arm more vertical if possible in relation to your arm while engaging his riser. I’m still searching for that old school training footage of you dropping and catching those weights BTW.

Whenever I see aviator sunglasses... I think ego problem immediately!!!

At 10:30.... He was NOT off center of table as fisher said!

I congratulate your patience and respect, you have class

Thanks for sharing this. Just like BJJ, it's a game of .. I was going to say game of inches.. but it's even smaller than that!

He sounds just like the Mercenary from Key and Peele

what a tachtician and artist

Did any of you in the comments play sports? Everyone is calling Allen a “pompous ass” and stuff like that. I don’t see the problem with his coaching style. He reminds me of my old high school football coaches. Guy is a world champ, he has a lot of knowledge to share. Some of y’all are soft.

Allen Fisher needs to take his glasses off he will. He was in the center both times when he and he didn't move when he said he moved to he pulled him past center that dude set up proper. Every time

Fischer is a golden page in a white book

Hahaha 🤣 I love Allan but it's the way you talk to people and it trips me out when he goes overboard!! WAY OVERBOARD 😬

His arm articulations are massive!!!!

That's not where his hand was when dude moved it...

He didn’t move. Dudes a little full of himself for being completely wrong.

I believe the word you were looking for is "inquisitive". I noticed the house before I started the video.

Dude NEVER moved

The Biker is the coolest MFer on the internet. I dig it.

The whisperer did not move where Allen said he moved from in the beginning. Dude was just makiung that shit up!

Wow a blast from the past! I remember Fishers setups. Learned so much from this guy. Was it ESPN boy the good ole days

Great knowledge or great recap, thanks for vid 💪😈🤘

I’d say Allen isn’t as intuitive as he thinks. Ethan did not move.

Hey hitman how u doing buddy? This is Zach u commented on a comment I posted for Devon just telling me don’t be discouraged if Devon doesn’t message me back cause I asked him to and he has definitely liked my posts gave me couple thumbs up but hasn’t answered no big deal he a busy man and I’m just a amateur arm wrestler in south western pa in Uniontown south of Pittsburgh.. Allen u are one of the greatest lightweight arm wrestlers to walk this planet and just by u actually talking to me and sending me a message on behalf of another gave be so much emotion of happiness and Encouragement I just appreciated it so much u have no idea I watch ur videos a lot cause when u are on the table it is a schooling of the art of arm wrestling I am a 160 165 lb arm wrestler and am not in super shape at all but I have been arm wrestling long enough and have that hidden strength that when someone gets on the table and hits u and u stare them in the eye like are u even pulling and u can just see there eyes communicating with there head thinking how is this lil 5,10 tall 160 lb kid that looks like he is doesn’t have anything, can beat arm wrestlers that have 50 75lbs on him .. I learn teqniques to take peoples power away that evens us out in the lane I’m taking or if I’m going to hook, top roll, shoulder press or drop my body use my long lever gain height with my fingers by using a variation of the kings move.. I can gain advantages.. would love to continue communicating with u and any of ur arm wrestling community that are some studs that can help a true lover of the sport .. #PULLINGISBELIEVIN

7:00.....Everyone-"Yo etienne ya we will see you tomorrow! Lol this guy

Gotta call out Fisher compare his arm from where it was to where he said it moved (barely dif) vs where he moved it down c’mon man respect to a Legend but

Keep it Ethan, go with the Pros and you reach your dreams on day!

You actually never moved. Kept an eye on the line above the garage and he moved you lower than you were

Came over from Facebook. Love the inside look at your journey in arm wrestling. Very interesting and great content

Dango dango drill sergeant man.

I haven't arm wrestled anyone in real competition and I knew most of this already it's common sense really about how the human body works

Yeah calm down Allen I have OCD too & you pulled his arm down it's natural twitch reflex is to move up!!

Very clear explanation

i love subtle dig on the house. haha

0:48 Master Roshi got tricked into looking. Of course it's out of leveled

I mean, props to father Allen and all but @1:39 you set up and don't move at all yet he says you do. How do I know this? Your hand lines up perfectly with the frame line at the top of the garage and your hand doesn't move. Slight finger movement, but overall exactly where you set up at. Then he comes and tries to tug you way down lower than you were when you set up. Lol Come on Allen, stop playing. You got the heat, we know it already. No need for that. Great knowledge though, keep it up.

Thats kinda suupr fascinating to see, cool dude the sensei of the sensei 🤙🏽

Allen’s point about chopping is really key. Make sure to pull towards yourself, not torque/twist your arm into your opponent’s arm

He said you moved and you didn't. Then he dragged your arm across the table and told you to stay there. THEN he came back and said "What's wrong with his position?" and he said you were set up too far to his side but he's the one who put you there and told you to stay. lol

This guy destroys people and doesn’t even fully try. Two fingers on grip and no facial expressions all while giving advice. Possible terminator.

At first I thought it was Jim Carrey from kick ass 2 😮

Etienne looks a lot like Kyan Douglas about 20 years ago.

Yeah, when he said you moved. You didn't

Shout out to my boy with the ronas lol

That peck bit sounded legit

He did not move his hand in the first place,,this man just loves attention and feeds off of it

The dudes hand didnt move quarter of an inch. Allen Fishers eyes moved. Kinda lost credibility as to what he notices after that point.

I had no idea that much went into arm wrestling. Great and informative. Fun stuff

I once beat all my teammates on the football team in elementary school in arm wrestling

excellent video. what a legend

1:48 he definitely didn't move. Look at where his hand lines up on the house. He kept it pretty steady.

Allen is so modest 🤟

4:00 lesson starts

Allen has great information to pass on, but his teaching style needs work.

Guy is seriously tripping about the shoulders being level he even is at an angle at some points. Et you a good sport cause I know you watched this back thinking tf..

Him and cobra are my all time favorite lightweights!

@2:24 Mr. smarty-pants perfecto autistic braniac -There is no _pectorial_ it's PEC-TO-RAL

Such good content!

slowrato bro, you got it

The miesner technique, chief. That is what you're referring to regarding the 20 questions.

I think that’s his way of getting into peoples heads

Total newb here, and not asking this to be condescending, but if the shoulders need to be perfectly square to the table to access the pecs at ready go, why does Devon carve in so much before the ready go?

Sheesh! Allen is incredibly knowledgeable. No surprise I guess.
