    The things that i mainly love about armwrestling is that it shows many biomechanical functions of the hands and this video has done well to also explain its complexity without touching its more scientific or professional demeanor but instead in an observation for the sake if competitiveness, thankyou so much for making this video

    Did this exercise today for the first time. Never had a better feeling and pump in the pronator muscle. It feels that you can come much deeper in the pronation in this cupping position. I will definitely integrate it in my weekly training. Thank you very much Tim 💪❤

      Thanks brother. Ulnar deviation refers to the anatomical motion of the hand and wrist flexing towards the ulna bone. Ulnar deviation or 'Ulnar Drift' is also a deformity, but the motion specific for flexion towards the ulna bone is still referred to as ulnar deviation. Radial deviation is flexion towards the radius bone. @@chuckypetersonarmwrestling99

    What advantages does one have when training pronation in a hook position vs pronation without wrist flexion? Is it more of a muscle memory type thing? At the end of the day, you are still just training pronation.
    I think the video is great, honestly. I juat have an issue with training in a losing position. Rarely do you ever win when you are in that position. Please correct me if im wrong. I understsnd people have comebacks and i havent seen every armwrestling video on the internet. I just feel like training pronation with wrist flexion starting from a losing position will train the body and mind that its okay to be in that position.
    Hookers need more offensive training style to help prevent them from getting to that losing psotion. I totally get it though. Train for the worst possible scenario but why not put that time and energy into training your body to put someone else in that losing position?
    Great video. Glad you are back and is there anyway i can find your matches online?

    • @armwrestlingsecrets
      @armwrestlingsecrets  11 місяців тому

      Hi brother. It's not "just training pronation". It's more specific. Especially when you take into account the ulnar deviation involved. You need to TRY the hook pronation exercises to see the difference. It will surprise you!

    I read somewhere that you need to snatch the hook quickly after the go . Meaning that if you try to " force " the hook , then you deserve to be toprolled ( of course against a toproller ) . What's your take on this ? Does setting the hook mean getting quickly behind someone's wrist instead of forcing it with wrist flexion ?

    • @armwrestlingsecrets
      @armwrestlingsecrets  11 місяців тому +1

      Hi brother. My answer would be that if your goal is to hook the opponent, your best chance is to try to apply the move IMMEDIATELY on the 'Go'. Forcing a hook takes strength which you need also, but I try to hook my opponent at LIGHT SPEED if that's my move. Hope this helps!

    Do you think tfcc injury is caused by weak hooking strength?
    Weak supination?

    What do you think about supination in a hook

    • @armwrestlingsecrets
      @armwrestlingsecrets  11 місяців тому

      Hi brother. Supination strength is necessary for setting a hook but pronation strength is necessary to keep it. I haven't found strict supination strength training to be as beneficial as training the wrist flexors, ulnar deviation and pronation. That being said, strong supination muscles can only help you on the table. I found that heavy training of the supination muscles gave me lots of injuries though. So, I stay away from strict supination training nowadays.

      Ivan called Devon out on East vs west and Devon said nothing. Devon knows who to stay far away from. Ivan would possibly expose Devon. Ivan just a different beast and all those shenanigans Devon plays, will not work on him. Let’s be honest Devon cheats. Devon rises before go, slips, purposely to straps, screams at the refs and turns it into a circus show. Devon brings in the pay-per-view numbers so they let him do what he wants because he is the big money draw because of all his fanboys. I years ago people didn’t run and slip to get to strap. You had to develop a strong skilled hand. Devon change the sport where if you learn to cheat well, you’ll do well. Since Devon now goes under the table now it’s acceptable and everybody thinks it’s cool but when Devon didn’t like it people understood it was a coward thing but now he does it, it’s OK.
