You learned the wrong thing though. You're NOT allowed to "get behind your hand as far as you can" as Brzenk put it, because you're not allowed to cross the center with your shoulder.

@@nvmffs that was old rule i guess long time ago

the bit about pushing with your tricep is totally false. It's a body movement. You can even see him here using his core and pushing the body behind the arm to win - not using his tricep but his core. He does it right but he describes it totally wrong. He also ends up too far under the table after one of those moves... Though he still shows the basic moves pretty well. It is amazing how long people will talk for without teaching shit. Devon spends 3 hours and doesn't teach you how to even top roll in that time lmfao. I think he wanted people to call him back on a regular basis to hear another single piece of advice given in 3 hours. But people didn't bite. AFter the first shit show they didn't want him back :P

@@agnidas5816 I imagine you still have to engage your triceps to keep your hand and forearm from collapsing into your body.

I guess you guys are more knowledgeable than Brzenk. smh

I love this guy. Check out the new video of his pointers in written form, "John Brzenk: armwrestling tips."

No joke.

And in just one minute lol

right

Theres more the Cobra style tooroll

@@0bliviodice Good point. There are many slight variations, different angles by degree, etc.

Apart from a hook, all the other techniques feel like cheating to me. The hook is the purest display of strength.

@@michaeltrumph121 well in my opinion armwrestling is more of a display of skill

@@softcat939 But it shouldn't be about that, it should just be about who is the strongest

Look exactly like him

For a sec I thought them to be the same!

Todd zilla mind set lol

Hahahaha

Pushkar style.

Cause in this video he was only telling about attack move and kingsmove is defense move

Brzenk was good but...Tesch is the best. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h8lggtqaqJ-mqo0.html

Tesch is the best. Proof? kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h8lggtqaqJ-mqo0.html

Of his time* Denis is of all time

@@nvmffs what are you smoking? John beat Denis easily back in the day, so how can Denis be of all time? Yeah Denis hadn't finished taking his nuclear steroids yet, but Denis was still twice his size, and John wrecked him. You got alot to learn about what it takes to be called the greatest of all time. No arm wrestler has achieved the same records as John over the same time span. None.

I would beat you in armwrestling i am 16 and i beat every adult in armwrestling i learned hook and posting top roll.

MrChewy Channel You're funny kid

@@mrchewychannel3429 that's nice.

@@mrchewychannel3429 damn you're 25 now or some shit

He calls it “the sweep”. It’s basically all side pressure

@@derek8674 thnx

Checkout todd Hutchings highlights

Cassius Gaio still a 90° on the bicep and not completely open arm like Todd sitting down resting like that ;P

+Brent z If you train it very carefully you'll be fine

Devon Larratt had a video about side pressure. He says he's tried to train it and do it, but it puts too much stress on the elbow ligaments and they get inflamed.

@@saintofconsequence can you link me to that position ? Isn't every move in armwresling have some side pressure in it ? The sweep only removes the hand moving...

It's an advanced technique. like the flop press and king's move, if you go for it ill prepared the risk of injury is probably higher than a standard hook or toproll. The flop press tends to be like this for a lot of people, too. Devon said training side pressure specifically lead to injury, but he finds he doesn't really need to train it directly as he still improves from other training and he can rely more heavily on direct side pressure if he does need to. He just doesn't rely on it as his primary weapon. Personally I think training the tendons and connective tissue with straight arm exercises like the planche, front lever, back lever, and even iron cross should be good for building the connective tissue integrity in the elbows and shoulders.

Brent z He's also pulling, in a top roll, but maintaining that side pressure as well.

Yup, second dude is his brother Bill. Not sure who the first guy is, maybe papa Brzenk?

Dave chaffee

Thats posting top roll

Young Magic no it’s not

You meant the Sweep ?

@@jasonvoorhees8899 What ? تكلم عربي Everything not only sweep

It of course takes strength as well, but in raw numbers in the gym Brzenk wasn't necessarily the strongest guy. The efficacy of the techniques is lost in the subtlety of the fine details of the biomechanics. Even Johnny Walker said about John's technique "he knew something I didn't". I guarantee there's much more to it than what's presented in this video - this is just a simple yet generally detailed overview of the most prominent techniques.

@@roberttaylor8906 Strongest guy in the angles needed for armwrestling wins everytime.

@@PK123RR as long as they know what they're doing*

He wasn't that juiced, he beat Cyplenkov because he was (way) more skilled.

John Brzenk claimed to take trt to prevent muscle loss in his 40's.
