  • @JRob75
    @JRob75 Рік тому +315

    at this point it’s clear one of the main factors holding back john is his age. less endurance, speed, reaction time etc. but still pulling at an elite level, amazing.

    • @SDSen
      @SDSen Рік тому +29

      Yep, goes to show you can't defy age that's hit his central nervous system, his reflexes/reaction time, and with the long covid issues his endurance has taken a beating, despite that he's showing everyone why he's the goat

      Well he was better than Irakli in every area bar endurance and speed. Unfortunately this game requires everything and endurance is a huge part of it. I'm of the opinion that John doesn't tain anywhere near as much as these elite armwrestlers do. He's just simply so good at armwrestling he's usually good enough. Also he trains mostly with guys who are levels below him and only once a week.
      If I was him I'd go spend 1 month down with MMT and train with him, his cardio would go through the roof and I think he'd easily be the number 1 in the 105kg if he trained a lot more.

    The best part was that John looked so happy when he saw Irakli's total elation at his victory over the mighty Brzenk. That it still means so much to these young guys to beat him, even at 58. Class act, both of them.❤

    John cannot push it too far when he pulls these younger guys anymore, every time he gets deep into a match he has to consider whether or not it's worth going all the way, he probably could have toughed it out in that last pull but it may have meant getting an injury in the process and at this point in his career he has probably concluded it isn't worth the pain.

    Irakli has so much bicep strength, but he is still not using it to his full extent.
    I think he needs to take his wrist and pronation training seriously. His biceps are nearly as strong as Levan, but his wrist cracks on the second round with John.
    He could do great as a pronation back pressure athlete, but his wrist is too buttery for his back pressure.

    Джон видимо не захотел травмировать паренька, отдал победу. Видно было что у Ираклия проблема.

    The guy has the greatest medal in arm wrestling, to be able to say, "I beat The G.O.A.T"

    Иракли поддаввлся видно. В плане давал Джону бороться в его удобном положении. И вроде сам с пришгрышного положения хотел выйти, но это тяжело на таком уровне

    John is great....don't get me wrong. Is he the goat though? My opinion........ Devon is the greatest who ever faced the table.

      John is the GOAT....he dominated for decades and beat champs above his class Denis, Travis, Lupkes, Dean, Chaffee, Pushkar etc. Devon never did that. He is also what top 20 at 58.
