Janis Amolins and RVJ TALK about HAND CONTROL 

This is the content armwrestling fans need!!!! please do more

Awesome. I noticed the glass table breathe a sigh of relief when that was over!

Its good to see the comunity is united,and the best europeans are opened to give advises to best north americans and vice versa..

This is actually extremely good advice. Competing against Zoloev and Kazakhs turned Janis into a master toproller.

That shows how Janis level is way above us pullers

Most guys that go over to Europe get beat with the hand and wrist. That's why John was so good no matter where he went dominate hand and wrist and really only armwrestling that European style makes you stronger there.

Can't even imagine what kinda beast RVJ can turn into after training with a master like Janis or Engin for a solid 6 months. He really has incredible potential.

Got concerned about that glass table a couple of times...Awesome video. Very insightful.

Use this knowledge RVJ. And come back and beat Sasho :) Great match. Both of you!

Rob should do a 6 month boot camp with Janis' crew and they will fill the holes in his game. Would be amazing youtube content too. Kind of like Devon living at tri-star.

Man...Janis really is The Last Jedi

All of a sudden Devon and Dave's micro movement trainings arn't so crazy huh... 🤦‍♂️

great masterclass by the Jedi!

You can teach an old dog new tricks

A humbled RVJ.

Janis is up there with Engin and Devon as far as being a genius at arm wrestling goes.

I like these kinds of vids honeslty, its refreshing to see people talk on the dinner table as oppose to nice looking gyms or studios lol

Im 6 times Georgian national champion and i think i have a knowledge in this sport to say it. RJV is good, well rounded armwrestler hes not bad in toproll, also not bad in hook. but at this level If u want to be great its not enough to be not bad at some moves, You must be PERFECT at least in 1 move(toproll hook or something else) thats what Sasho Andreev is doing, hes so great with his 1 movement that no one in his weight can make him play with other technics rules. same about Irakli Ziraqashvili and Terzi, they are very good in theyr toproll so almost no one can hook them. all im trying to say is: its easy to force average well rounded pullers like RVJ to play with your technique rules. sorry for bad english but i hope some of you will understand what i wanted to say.

Wow. That's simply great. Thanks for enlighten us all.

RVJ saying that the lowhand dragging toproll is "new" to him is so funny. He has the classic Dave Chaffee curse here -- guys so naturally strong that they never bother to learn fundamental technique. Hope that after this he decides to work more on his technical game.

Quality information small adjustments to increase technique 💪🏽

Simple yet brilliant video 🦾

I was born and raised in the same area as Rob is from so I am a fan of his. I’m glad he still went out there and competed because he was only training for a couple weeks so he Put himself in a really hard spot. I hope this loss lights a spark under him. From watching this video it looks like that spark has been lit because he’s taking pointers from one of the best in the world rather than just sleeping in his bed and waiting for the plane.

janis and ray has just so much knowledge man

Rob soaking up that Latvian coaching. 💪💪🗣️🗣️

Wow, great quality content, amazing

I know rvj has been around for a while even longer then all of them there and even now he is learning new things and actually embracing it aswell. He is definitely gonna get stronger with this loss

This is awesome stuff, the behind the scenes technique talk ❤️

RVJ would benefit greatly from a European training camp.

Great content, coach! Thx for sharing!👍

Love the sharing of knowledge. More of this please.

wow great vid! so instructive!

This is beautiful

Awesome content, cheers🍻

RVJ needs a professional ArmWrestler to coach him about technqiues... e.g Engin, Janis, etc...

The Jedi doing some great teaching!!

Man , it was so cool meeting all you guys , thanks for taking the time to have pictures with us all

Janis the Jedi master

That's the kind of video we need...where more knowledgeable Arm Wrestlers share their knowledge and help everyone progress... If RVJ learns more about technique and become professional...Even at 40 he can improve much more...He needs to be humble and learn and think more about the game...Hope he does it...

This draws parallels to what Dan Gable discovered during his wrestling travels. He realized that the Americans focused more on hard training, but the Russians focused more on technical proficiency in their training. Very interesting stuff.

i love Janis :) great guy

Very Very Informative video

This is goood stuff

These kind of techniques are what we need more of being explained in detail like this. Good video

RVJ's right bicep is huuuuuge

Learning from Jedi Master Janis you shall...

lol, "we would definitely shatter this table". Perfect closing to this video, lol.

Being an armwrestler... this here... is pure gold !

It's good to see RVJ working on fine-tuning areas of weakness. Because I promise you, his arm was plenty strong for Sasho, but Sasho punched through his fingers and turned the wrist like twisting off a piece of Play-Doh. I would love to see RVJ work on these points and come back and beat Sasho.

Beautiful lesson

Great video Ray. Both you and Janis have done the world a big favor with all of those training and discussion videos over the years. Doesn't get much better than you guys for instructional content. Thank you both!

First awesome videos stay strong and love armwrestling

You can never talk too much about the specific direction and angles that the different types of pulling creates. I love how you discussed training pronation from a higher angle on the wrist. Never would have thought of that.

Great content

man I rally think RVJ have everything he needs to beat sasho he jsut need to use it at the right time and place.

Another amazing video

I like how any time anyone mentions Travis, they all imitate his voice haha!

Ray I love finding these gold nuggets every now and again 😍 1:10 onwards has hidden gem.

janis one of my favorite armwrestler and he teaches alot of how to trained😊❤

Genius thanks for this great info

This is a great info and I enjoyed watching rob learn from you guys

Love this vid, nice pint of view for and beginner like me who is finding my style, and this way is close that I need to be my top roll

Very informative

Awesome stuff - very revealing. You and Yanis are levels ahead on the technical side. Even more than training, RVJ really needs high level coaching and strategy. Strange that he doesn't reach out to Brzenk. U.S. breeds too many lone wolves. Europeans work together in teams and groups. Better practice, better table strategy.

RVJ is a genetic phenom. If a master class techy would help him for a few years....seriously no one would touch him pound for pound....period.

Masterclass!

This is great content Rob, thank you! #thejedi

I went to my first armwrestling club yesterday and discovered armwrestling is WAY more technique then I thought! I was pulling with all my strength and someone would bend my hand/wrist back and all the power was gone and I'd lose lol fun sport

I really hope RVJ gets inspired and not disheartened by his ArmWars experience. His gifts are easy to see, he just needs to put in the work and not rely on his natural ability. P.S. don't @ me with a roids explanation. It is what it is.

Holy crap, I've never thought of it that way.

Valuable stuff

The good stuff, the top dudes exchanging some info.

This is what he needs, if he can get sasho's hand just to go a bit past flat it would probably look totally different that and more consistent training lol

RVJ is not listening and letting him complete - He has given such a Golden advise. I am definitely gonna work on this....Million $ advice

Never armwrestle on a glass table

I love the arm wrestling community. Even guys who could end up pulling each other are still lifting each other up and everyone’s trying to get better. No ones trying to hold anyone back. This is what it would lose if arm wrestling got huge and blew up. It’s a choice though. Should arm wrestlers possibly lose what makes it great with a chance for people to actually make a living doing it? I think the people who think they want they would be the same people that would wish it never changed after it did. I think it’s in a great spot and I’d hate to see any big change.

Awsome content!

Janis is one hell of a coach.

Sweet content

03:10 if he actually pays attention John Brzenk does is very successfully. That style always pulled my attention, not a full lowhand toproll but lowhand and full hand controlled toproll. John did it many times when he faced good hook pullers.

AWESOME

Good to see rvj excited about armwrestling

It's kind of funny that this is the first RVJ is seeing this, but still this is amazing content and it's great to see him learning. Hope he manages to level up even further. He has a lot of raw strength. All these afterpulling style things where people discuss and share strategies is so interesting.

This is stronger but this one is more connected (exactly the same problem I have)

Great behind the scenes

Good video 😁💪👍

Love it

best upload ever

Very good content

Would like to see Denis Cyplenkov explaining his technique, people say he is just brute strength, but he has some more in depth technique behind his hit, he's not that dumb as people think, i believe he knows more then he shows.

RVJ listening to Janis…that’s trouble..lol..👏👏

Video on Janis’s HAND CONTROL PLEASE!

The Jedi master Janis is training another!!!

Epic!

Outside europe, many potential great athletes,but technical on low level.

Rvj hasn’t realized yet that’s how Craig Tullier pulls

I wanna see Janis go around and train already talented pullers like Rvj and stuff

That poor glass table dodged several bullets.

Janis seems like a really cool guy. Rob too

Where can I buy the shirt Rob is wearing?
