Setting the New Armwrestling Standards for 2024

It's been 3 weeks into my first real strength training block of 2024, and I figured it'd be a good time to see where I'm at so that I have a reference point for the year's progression.
Today I test several fundamental lifts that are, for me, greater indicators of my progress on the table -- if these numbers go up, I for sure know that I'm getting stronger on the arm wrestling table.
The lifts used in this test are:
1) Locked pronation
This is a measure of my static elbow flexion backpressure through pronation.
2) Locked Riser
This is a measure of my static radial deviation.
3) Containment
This is a measure of my static finger flexion and wrist flexion working in unison.

Bro those pronation lifts are insane. Great inspiration for everyone! I've been training for almost two years now with my club, i'ts called Sparta, from brazil, we're like best 2nd or 3rd in the country, just behind Bortolato's team. My strenghts are also the pronation/riser for toproll but i never forget to work on Hook strenghts as well. A lot of guys here don't realise that we need coordenation and sinergy in all areas, not just what we do the most, basically focus on the weakpoints while keep pushing the strenght foward for the best results on the table. Keep training smart, the comunity need this kind of content! Thanks my friend 💪

@olivernussbaumer132 18 дней назад

This is a fundamental missunterstanding of the pronation lift. The more the forearm deviates from horizontal, the more you can handle.

@EastsideArmWrestling 18 дней назад

"This is a fundamental missunterstanding of the pronation lift" - therein lies the fundamental misunderstanding - that there is ONE pronation lift. The deviation from horizontal is almost arbitrary within a large range of motion. I could go significantly more vertical OR even into a negative horizontal, it wouldn't matter. As long as the lift being tracked is kept consistent across time, if the numbers go up, strength is increasing.

@olivernussbaumer132 18 дней назад

@@EastsideArmWrestling No, as you can see from yourself. Your forearm angle increases as your weight increases. Only the horizontal forearm position can be maintained approximately uniformly because it is the easiest to check. Nonetheless, strong performance!

What kind of pressure are you using on that last lift? I've always done finger/wrist lifts like that with lat/drag but it looks like you're going more forward with tricep/press. If it works, it works. Just looks weird to me.

@EastsideArmWrestling 20 дней назад

That’s a great question man! For me I’m applying a similar type of pressure as I would when trying to force containment on an actual opponent. So instead of just pulling straight back with my lats, I am coming forward a little and leading with my fingers clamping.

@Bililz 21 день назад

Great job! Good luck on your subsequent strength building phases :). Also, don't you just love the comments about your "form is off, you are 5.674568° degrees off PaRAlLeL". Didn't realize you were about to hit a pronation powerlifting meet 😂. Armwrestling is about positioning, you position your lifts where you feel it most benefits you on the table, and as long as you can consistently track that progress through a consistent metric, you are reaping the rewards you need. Lol

@EastsideArmWrestling 20 дней назад

Thank you Bililz, reading your comment gives me much hope for the community. I’m so glad you know how to discern the importance of form - knowing the reason behind doing a certain lift. I feel like the form police going around have somewhat of a good intent (giving the benefit of the doubt that they’re not just trolling or jealous). However, this over-harping on form shows quite an inexperienced understanding of training and programming in general. Like you said: as long as you can consistently track it somehow, then for that reason, it’s all good.

@pepiusporedkata 21 день назад

you really need to start doing the lifts properly, even you have to be aware that a lift of 30kg riser in that manner and 60 kg pronation somewhat dont compare, the first time i hit 55 kg pronation my locked riser over the knuckle was 38kg and it was somewhat of a weak point My guess is that when you dont dump your riser and if you do the pronation lift properly the numbers will be 26 kg riser and 42kg-44kg pronation, these are number you can actually compare to other people

@EastsideArmWrestling 20 дней назад

Compare to what? Why am I comparing to other people? I said in the video that this is for me to compare with myself in the future. The only comparison I need to make with other people is when I’m on the competition table.

@steverempel2728 21 день назад

Your 30 degree forearm angle on the pronation lift is probably allowing 30% more weight. Although consistency is what matters more. On your containment lift, notice that the cable attachment on your handle doesnt line up with middle knuckle, making it pull harder on your bottom fingers. I'm guessing it may feel more balanced if you went up a hole on the handle.

@EastsideArmWrestling 21 день назад

Yup, the point is consistency-doing it the same way now as 6 months later. I haven’t tried toggling the holes on the containment lift before, but instead when I did train it, I’d do sets focusing on the bottom fingers and flip it around to focus on the top fingers. I’ll try your tip and test the other holes, but I don’t think I’ll really use those for training.

@minhhale 21 день назад

So you're peaking and then deloading without going for any competition? Bit of a waste of the peaking phase :(

@EastsideArmWrestling 21 день назад

This wasn't a peaking phase for me, it's just been 1 of several standard strength mesocycles that I plan to run for the next few months. I only run a peak for serious competitions as peaks don't really promote growth so I don't do them too often.

@Bililz 21 день назад

What made you think this was a peak? Deloading and hitting 1 rep maxes are not exclusive to peaking. Peaking is just a concept; when you put your body through intense volume, and then transition into a high intensity phase where you incrementally taper volume lower and intensity higher to a point and then taper intensity lower and volume pretty much is non existant as you transition to a deload. Finally your body mends throughout this process and peaks very high, if done right, you are at your strongest ever, as soon as your done though, you crash and come down. Which is why it's called a peak.

That’s a 9% difference in the proportion of true load, which is a huge margin at your level.
