Glad this wasn't lost. Seminar is definitely a gem. Someone has gotta bring back the time stamps for everything! I used to scroll through it all the time
You're one of the most likeable guys in arm wrestling and deserve everything that you have you should be making more money on UA-cam for sure I think all you're missing is posting consistently if that's not important to you then never mind but I think your channel would grow significantly if you did that. Thanks for all the tips and tricks Uncle Todd.
Todd, I don’t know how long you’ve lived in Lowell but I was born and raised there for 18 years until I left for boot camp 24 years ago. You definitely probably know my late step-father & maybe my brother. Anyways, thanks for all the inspiration over the years & keep kickin’ ass brother!
What an awesome, scientifically in-depth seminar! I still have a question though.. seeing as side pressure is the lane I want to strengthen the most right now, how often should I train it, do isometrics and max out? I see you said 12 week cycles for maxing on different things but what about simply side pressure itself? I’m clearly feeling the pain now but I don’t trust it to tell me when enough is enough. Thank you for the seminar Uncle Todd!
Great video, uncle Todd, leaned a whole lot! There is one question I would love to ask you: do you think it is worth to train with grippers to for open toproll and kingsmove? You often do kick your hand back with these techniques, so maybe it is nice to put some extra brakes on your opponents pronation?
I really like how we can understand your training philosophy too because it's like the complete opposite of the stuff Devon teacher which has become too mainstream nowadays as if it was the only way to train. Great to see the other side as well.
Good afternoon uncle Todd and thank you so much for always sharing and I do close pushups everyday off of push-up handles because I didn’t have a bench and bar at home and I found it worked the same way so I still do them now even with a bench at home now and thank you again for just being you because it doesn’t better what other sport you pick none of the top athletes are making videos to help anyone and everyone for free and that’s one more thing that’s makes arm wrestling amazing
In that one Todd spoke about hpw he recovers from pain. I started doing the J press or whatever its called. Glorious Heavenly Father bless my Uncle Todd I beg of you.

It should be noted though that training grip/squeezing strength can be hugely beneficial depending on your style of pulling and how you approach hand control. Having a strong grip will never have a negative impact on your arm wrestling.
I’m new to arm wrestling and this is pure gold!!! I know Daniel Mosier lives 40 mins from me and I’ve been thinking about trying to get in touch with him to go get some some of his knowledge also.
Thank you so much todd im watching you all the time from Philippines now i have idea how to deal with my elbow on my right arm i love you todd god bless you man
I can't help but notice there's not a whole lot about wrist pain and rehab. For years I've struggled with intermittent pain on the back of my wrist, usually in line with the index finger or at the base of the thumb. The pinky side of the wrist also cracks hard when I push on the front of it. Combination of manual labour and armwrestling. Ended up taking an indefinite leave from pulling because of it. I can sorta do general training around the issue but it's never really gone away . Do you recommend any specific protocol for that?
I haven’t done a lot on rehab, I really haven’t been asked. Wrist pain is rare, when I have encountered it in myself or others it usually stems from strain placed on fingers. Usually flat handles, or jarring motions encountered like hammering or concrete demolition. Wrist would be tricky to rehab, I would suggest rice bucket work. For arm rehab I would recommend pullups, kettle bell swings, shoulder work and the ever present JM Press.
I don't argue that you don't get stronger each week, but, have you tried to make you pbs with a week or two off before? I would actually think you could do even more then, and you most certainly could do them a couple of times extra close to the same weight if you are fully recovered, tendons and ligamets takes a couple of weeks to recover. I really think at least 2 weeks of will make you a stronger more enduring armwrestler, with many many years of training you wont get any stronger at the table from one week of training, maybe in the gym with a rotating workout, but I have a hard time believing that training the week before is better than resting.
Todd, why not train your shoulders with the bar behind your neck? I am a flexible person and it is my favorite movement for shoulders in general, doesn't it go well with armwrestling?
Shoulders are very complex with their 3 heads. Movements with the bar behind the head risk injury. Shoulder injuries are likely the second most common arm wrestling injury.
@@toddhutchings906 would you agree there are multiple ways to hold the multispinner? Would you agree that when holding the multispinner as it is typically used, one of the forces you are resisting is a rotational/torque force trying to “spin” the handle? But a much more interesting question is: what would uncle Todd rename the “multispinner”?
@ I like what you are doing here. But, spin, is colloquially accepted as meaning motion, as opposed to torque, which is a turning force but does not require motion. I would call it Molly, but marketing would change it to something involving , torque, wrist, arm wrestling, training. Probably end up with TorqueWrist or TorkRist or TorqReest 😂
Uncle Todd, it's me again, I'm apologising, but i have a thought. I have a question about the Devon's riser pull. I think it's stupid 😂. The lever consists of 2 links where the force comes from: the wrist and the radial. Both together. But the radial is much stronger than the wrist abduction, so both links need to be strengthened separately, each link with the corresponding load value. That's why I ask you to make a video on the physics of armwrestling.
@@toddhutchings906yep. This is what I was thinking too. As a toproller primarily, my biceps tendon is much more taxed than elbow. Especially if u get ur arm opened over and over during practice.
Greatest AW knowledge available. But uncle Todd, person who bench 405x20 is must be stronger than person who bench 405x10. Giving 100% and 50% to do set of 10 isn't small difference?
Damn! Now the 3 videos has been combined into 1 golden video. Thank you for reuploading the priceless gem.

That’s 4 side pressure work outs.
You can max out on 12 different side pressure exercises.

I do not believe you should train with grippers. That is also the prevailing wisdom.
You need wrist strength more than anything.

Should the JM press be done relaxed in the bottom position to "stretch" the tendons? Or should a little contraction be held at all times?
I relax to maximize the stretch.
It should be noted though that training grip/squeezing strength can be hugely beneficial depending on your style of pulling and how you approach hand control. Having a strong grip will never have a negative impact on your arm wrestling.
All strength is good.
The time spent training squeezing grip strength could be better used for improving arm wrestling.

Ligaments and tendons do not require 2 weeks of recovery. If they did, Armwrestlers would only train every 2-3 weeks.
one of the best seminar
A true master representing the sport of arm-wrestling.
First! Thank you uncle Todd!

Multispinner: wrap the strap around in a multitude of ways.
