Advanced Arm Wrestling | The Pyramid of Pressures 

Don't tell Devon.. Ongarbayev might be my fav puller now! Wait don't tell George either

Noted: maps and collages make Jason and Alex happy lol😂

I still can't belive you make these videos for free! You guys really love arm wrestling. Thank you so much! 😎🔥🤘

Amazing video, no one else explains the complexity of arm wrestling as simple as you guys do, it all makes so much sense, thank you so much and keep up the amazing work

Excellent video and series on fundamentals - I’m devouring and applying as much as possible into my weekly practices in prep for my next tournament on May 18th. Thanks guys! Stay strong

Identify the weakness and apply the right mechanics. Backpeessure with strong enough side pressure with breeze through most opponents. Develop a superior hand and take opponents through wrist and fingers.

Hello im from Iran and your videos really did help me ,I've been armwrestling for 4 month and I've been having outstanding progress. Only problem with your videos is you dont spar with eachother and show us exactly how you mean,I mean you show us how to do the technique but that is not actually how it will be applied in a real match. Thank you for your videos ❤❤

and that is why style make matches

Triad really goes with "pyramid" but man does it just sound like ro sham bo

Great video

I have to give you guys some thanks to recent my success at my provincials, I improved my standing and took 3rd left and 2nd right in Grand masters 85 kg , keep up the great work!

In Sweden we also have an arm wrestling school.

I love the look of this. It joins quickly to the hill and adds a great way to help visualize techniques. Great video! Good to see you back 💪

Well done gentlemen. I'm looking forward to more of this.

awesome idea!

Everything you guys do has helped me set up the first Armwrestling club in my region. Thank you.

We will try this on Friday's practice!

Wow, that’s a very interesting and helpful way to see it 👌🏼

cool general theory, ill see if it applies next time i have tablepractice!

Another banger guys.

I’ve noticed different arm wrestlers call up pressure what other call back pressure. For these purposes it seems drag is back pressure, which is diagonally down and back. Rise is up pressure, which is diagonally up and back. Drag is lat/finger dominant and rise is bicep/wrist dominant. Is that somewhat accurate? Side to side - x axis, “up and down” - y axis, “forward and back” - z axis.

Love this modeling exercise. Can you help me understand why you guys chose the pyramid instead of mutually perpendicular x/y/z axis? It feels like a cleaner model to put the x axis as peg to peg like you have it, y as up pressure as you have it, and rotate Z so it runs along the line of your forearm. It seems to allow for cleaner anatomical correlations when translating to your hand as well.

love that example at 11minutes, reminds me of how ermes stopped levan?

But thinking about the combinations of pressures is certainly interesting. Im usually doing a defensive toproll of some kind because im training with some strong sidepressure hook pullers. Lets assign + and - for the direction in each pressure category. So pulling back, towards pinning side and up is +, the reverse is - . They attack me with: +peg to peg 50%, - pad to pad 30% and -up and down 20% . So i respond with : +pad to pad 50%, +up and down 30% and - peg to peg 20%. So they are coming to the side, forward while crashing down on me. I am pulling back, up(or maintaining hight) and pulling towards my pinpad(reverse sidepressure). Actually works out fairly well in this scenario. A next step would be to think about how i would have to respond of these pressures of my opponent changed to some % and if the model would still make sense.

I love this channel..💪💪🇨🇦 I'm in keywest there is nothing down here armwrestling...

whats the triad for flop press-Kings move---- for devon and genadi?

The Haunted Hill.. The Pyramid of Pressure.. The Hand of DOOM.

Jeison is very important this tecnical movement and i understand a lite more i wait práctice but You can please subtitles in spanis idiom? Comunity sur american .. is very interest..

So pad to pad refers to flat back pressure in the toproll, as well as a dragging hook here? But up/down is specifically only posting toproll?

I am glad I am not a professional armwrestler. Excellent tutorial, gentlemen. OOOOeeeeeahhhhooooooahhhahahaha

What if you move back up and sideways with cupped pinky down pressure

Very nice concept. I think its nice to think about this while ignoring the existence of hands first, so just sticks pulling at each other. Because some of this works without hands and some of it only really makes sense when we take hand into consideration. Pad to pad simply beats peg to peg because it creates a longer moment arm for the sidepressure. This is true even if there were no hands involved. Now with up and down this gets a little fuzzy. A The post only really beats a dragging toproll because of hand mechanics. Without hand, pad to pad would still beat pad to pad in this scenario because lats are stronger than elbow flexors. Now this is just one thought i had, it also becomes more interesting when we think about combinations of pressures, because there is usually never just one obviously. Its always all three to some degree. How would it play out if we gave each move a percentage of all these pressures? Something to think through. So i think conceptually it would make sense to first separate arm and hand mechanics or things get a bit fuzzy. There can be supinating or pronating up pressure for example etc. Lots to think about, but i like your analytical approach a lot!

But if u use up, down ,left ,right square, circle,circle ,square you enable cheat codes and u can beat anyone :)

why a pyramid model tho, what role does the shape play when its just a 3D-space

Hahaha

yo guys, what’s the best way to counter the standard side pressure that untrained people do (and how to not injure them too)

Fiiiirsttt
