Let's be honest... he's getting old, he was out of training for a while, has lingering injury issues, and hasn't seriously competed in a little while... so in the top 8 he has like zero chance of winning. It will be cool to see him compete and he is a legend and the g.o.a.t. but he doesn't have a chance of winning
I noticed at the end that John had pain flexing his bicep and lifting his arm at the same time. It’s more likely a supraspinatis partial tear, rather than the actual shoulder joint. If he can find a local massage therapist who can dig real deep Into his shoulder, it will hurt like hell, but after a day or two, his shoulder will feel much better and more stable.
@@andrewp.9541 He offered advice from a different point of view so he can check with a doctor he trusts just in case but of course there are idiots like you lurking in the bushes.
Man, John is looking good. He cut back on the beer and fixed his diet so he’s leaned out a LOT and still strong as shit. I liked the “I hear your 44% stronger” lol 😂 Legend.... great content Ryan 👍💪
John is just a total anomaly. Is it simply the lifetime of forging and conditioning the tendons and ligaments that allows him, with the table experience and iq, to still be this dominant at this point? It truly is amazing. Massive respect, and I think I speak for a lot of us when I say, I will be rooting for John to win the top 8 this year.
He can't even flex good the arm because of the shoulder pain Damm and still competing and destroying high level people with 56 years! that's truly love your sport, what a beast and a legend is this man👏👏
This video leaves no doubt . Jons wife makes all the decisions when it comes to interior decorating . Jon said as long as there is a arm wrestling table in the middle I don't care lol
My friend & fellow arm wrestler Russ just sent me this link, AWESOME! Brzenk is the entire reason I got into arm wrestling, I’ve never seen him live yet hopefully this year in Top 8, or anywhere I get to see him. Would also luv to meet him one day if possible. Great video too. John wish you the best & no matter what you’re the greatest ever.
@@WooliteMammoth He's been training only right for about... Hmm idk like 40 years 😂 John has done okay with his left but I don't think he does much training with it other than on the table.
Born a champion, lived as a champion, rise to be a legend. It is sad that other sports immortalize dominant individuals at their sports, and Brzenk is the most dominant athlete in its sport to have ever existed and almost no one talks about him.
Not being an arm wrestler, but just a fan of the sport, let me say you guys are freaking fun to watch and just listen to the shenanigans. Always happy when you get the GOAT on
In basketball there is Michael Jordan In hockey Wayne Gretzky, in boxing Ali and in football Pele. There is John Brzenk in the arm. A man who has been performing at the highest level since 1984! Just think about it. This is the greatest athlete and legend of Arm.
Always a pleasure to see the legend Mr Brzenk go to work, wow he is looking in incredible shape. Thank you for this Ryan, could you describe how John felt in comparison to the last time you pulled him?
Lieutenant Scrotes Ryan said on his Instagram the motivated and training of this version of John feels a hundred times more brutal and it’s beyond any hand his ever gripped with.
I was in a bar in Arizona, near the university, like 4 years ago. Turned around and John was walking behind with his wife. We took some pics. What a guy. Couldn’t believe it.
Really more dense and fit, and it also looks a little bit stronger. It's a shame he doesn't share his way to come back, diet and training. I hope he will win his category in the top 8, courage John ;)
Its not about the pump he didn't even train his left. Atleast to not that extent as his right when the 240lb beer drinking guy turned to a fucking 200lb monster
It's wild to see you beat some legit people and to watch you in training. And then watch John just stand there and look at his hand while you're pulling lol. Strength is a weird thing.
That old man called John Breznk is no joke 😋 Our man is already looking 10yrs younger and that pronation (checkout his wrist size) has not gone nowhere!!! Ryan must be blown out from Chance Shaw fight and post fight show down!!!
Has anybody actually investigated whether or not this "Human" named John Brzenk.... was ever involved in a Fiery plane crash that resulted in him losing his Right arm , both his legs and one eye..?? Hmmmm...😏 * for the younger fans , Yes that's the "The Million Dollar Man or The Bionic Man" reference. ...lol 💪 Amazing video, thank you for posting mate. Enjoy every moment with the 🐐 it's a priceless opportunity.
IT would be so great to get microfones...so many Videos of practice are nearly Not watchable because of the sound, thats Not only about you Blue, many other aw are Doing this
Yes the GOAT, the last of the "gentlemen" fighters, rarely talked shit, always came proper, never did drugs, a true Natty talent. i could be wrong though, he might'a juiced like all them, but i like to hope he was natty.
At his age im sure he's on some TRT.. but, its not testosterone too an abnormal level. He still has 56yo joints arms and shoulders, and a testosterone production of you average healthy guy... no one is immortal... but john is the closest
Up until 2015 he hadn't even don't TRT. He said somewhere on a video that for his match against Devon laratt he got on TRT, I don't count that as anything because he was like 50 years old!
@@rileyneufeld7001 exactly, and he doesn't appear too have those nasty test abuse issues (bloat, acne ect, ect) he'smost likelyon the higher end of the natural spectrum, instead of 10x or more like the giant ripped steroid monsters, (10 years ago he'd beat them regardless of what they were on) !! The man must have alien DNA or something. Kinda like how Shaquille O'neal was built for Basketball John was built for Armwrestling. What Michael Jordan was too basketball, John Brzenk was/is too Armwrestling, MJ would have needed another career, or another 15 years of Prime Basketball too be as dominating as John
@@ashmerch2558 He has a fat hand that he had been training since he was a teenager. Im sure there is some genetics that are in his favor but I think it's because he started arm wrestling the CORRECT way when he was a kid from his dad. Same thing with Travis his dad taught him from a young age and he was a monster.
Tbelf123 Ryan said on his Instagram the motivated and training of this version of John feels a hundred times more brutal and it’s beyond any hand his ever gripped with.
Who wants to see John win the top 8 leaves a like!!!
@@BLZArmwrestling he can win 95 kg category if he wins his first match then he will have time to get in shape and get proper therapy for his pain

UPVOTE THIS so they see!
Could be the long head of the bicep tendon as well. Especially since it connects to the labrum (which is what he needed surgery on)
Oh cool, doctors looking to put their medical license up for UA-cam comments

I love watching John pull but as far as top 8 nobody is beating Levan for a long while!
Don Chaney it’s the 95 Kg top 8. John is not competing in the open class top 8.
@@donchaney3 John won't be pulling in Levan's group.
I can't do anything but smile when I see John pull with such ease
I see John i click! I want John to start UA-cam! Anyone else?
Everyone. Hes literally the most dominant sports athlete.
This video here more important than the super bowl.
Good joke. I will keep that in mind. Hahahahaha. Nah it's not :)
John brzenk is the true terminator arm. Living legend
Holy smokes John is looking jacked! Top 8 this year is going to be amazing.
This was really fun to watch. John’s looking jacked!
John is looking strong and healthy! I'm looking forward to him in the Top 8!
John brzenk...in his age..is freak of nature! Dayum man!
He can't even flex good the arm because of the shoulder pain Damm and still competing and destroying high level people with 56 years! that's truly love your sport, what a beast and a legend is this man👏👏
Shoulder...not back pain.
Hope he stays injury free through his prep and competition.
Money attracts talent!!!
This video leaves no doubt . Jons wife makes all the decisions when it comes to interior decorating . Jon said as long as there is a arm wrestling table in the middle I don't care lol
Loved this video! No one else gets"The Man" in their videos. Thanks Blue and thank you John¡!!!!!!!!!!!!!
John is the King. 🙌🙏 Namaste blessings and respect..
John's arm is a gift from the gods
John your looking buffed. 💪💪💪go get EM.. .
Always good seeing John on the channel. BTW the flashing effect on the video is from auto-whitebalance on your camera.
SlR oh good I thought I was having a stroke lol
That's awesome, training with a legend in his own living room.
Truly AWESOME that John is back in training!
16:55 John is so awesome he makes his sweat disappear.

They both have bigger right arms and under-trained left arms loll
@@WooliteMammoth He's been training only right for about... Hmm idk like 40 years 😂 John has done okay with his left but I don't think he does much training with it other than on the table.
First saw john in Elliot lake ontario canada around 1979,best in the world.....
John is looking totally jacked. Thanks for bringing us along Blue!
Born a champion, lived as a champion, rise to be a legend.

Loeb enter the chat....
Love these with Brzenk!
Holy smokes, look at those veins on John arms, damn son.
Herion veins
Pipelines!
@Andrew Jackson damnn i want the stuff ur smoking
Andrew Jackson ?
GOAT. A phrase where we have a phrase with four words beginning with G, O, A, T. This stands for greatest of all time. .
John is still the man! and you sir, are so blessed to have the relationship you have with him...
Can you beat this SENIOR CITIZEN at arm wrestling?
Lol. Love it.
They would be like "Wow your so strong! You're pretty good huh?" John: "Yea I'm alright" *is in the Guinness book as the GOAT of armwrestling*
Not this one u cant
Holy smokes, John looks great! Lean and mean
John back in fighting shape man!
Legend.
John looks back in shape. That guy is timeless!!
John the best of the best of the time. 💪🏻
Loving John’s shape!!! Looking great!!💪💪💪
Not being an arm wrestler, but just a fan of the sport, let me say you guys are freaking fun to watch and just listen to the shenanigans. Always happy when you get the GOAT on
Would luv to see him of course but I'm just dying to see him pull live, I'm new fan here so never seen him live
It looks so fun to pull with the legends! I envy you so much!😊

My armwrestling inspiration. Brzenk the GOAT without any doubt.
John Brzenk is still looking good, can't believe how strong he is for his age. Absolute LEGEND.....
Man! John looking big there! Forearms looking ridiculously swole! Lol He seems to still be a brick wall at 55! 💪💪💪💯
To be able to lock up with the Legend is such a honor I could only wish for.....
No one is as lucky as this irish guy cuz he is training with an absolute legend
I can do a pretty decent Irish accent 😂😉
John is looking like a BEAST
Brzenk love😊
LOVE IT !
We want you back John
JOHN is THE GOAT
time stamp when John does the kings move?
I was in a bar in Arizona, near the university, like 4 years ago. Turned around and John was walking behind with his wife. We took some pics. What a guy. Couldn’t believe it.
Ryan great man to practice with John Brzenk.
*Legend* 💪
Really more dense and fit, and it also looks a little bit stronger. It's a shame he doesn't share his way to come back, diet and training. I hope he will win his category in the top 8, courage John ;)
I understand that John's right arm is pumped and the left one isn't but wow, the right one looks like an abomination of god, it's so much bigger.
Its not about the pump he didn't even train his left. Atleast to not that extent as his right when the 240lb beer drinking guy turned to a fucking 200lb monster
Everyone from Top"8 is now worried after seeing John's Right hand, I'm so sure 😂
lets gooooo John Brzenk with the triumphant kings return?
Man i John will get his condition as healthy as possible and kick ass come tournament time!
Damn, John's arms look DANGEROUS.💪
Jhon Brzenk el mejor pulseador de la historia
Johns the fucken master.
Edit. It's also good to see Ryan competitive for John during table time. Ryan seems at least 44% stronger this time around :)
Anyone remember Devon saying he knew John wasn’t retired in one of Juji and Tom’s videos?
Inb4 match in Moldova for 1 million dollars soon. 😂
Damnnn i nearly forgot that haha
Icenflamesrush it was for 3 million
Edward Ichtay oh yeah that’s right, even better. 😂
Arm Wrestling World take heed....... the GOAT is back and looking STRONk!
It's wild to see you beat some legit people and to watch you in training. And then watch John just stand there and look at his hand while you're pulling lol. Strength is a weird thing.
Genetics, tendons and ligaments > lifting heavy weights
I'm from Ukraine but I really hope Brzenk will win!
Wow look at 12:29 mark, John’s right arm is so pumped! Like twice the size of his left lol
Una leyenda...
Ryan is choosing to give his hand here 😂 love ya Blue
That old man called John Breznk is no joke 😋
Our man is already looking 10yrs younger and that pronation (checkout his wrist size) has not gone nowhere!!!
Ryan must be blown out from Chance Shaw fight and post fight show down!!!
Blue, Brother, I think John may be well on his way to a comeback! Your thoughts?
Ryan "wow John u been training the kings move"
John " oh I don't use it compition only against you" 😆👏
John is back :)
Does having double-jointed thumbs offer any advantages or options during setup? Have you ever gripped up with someone with double-jointed thumbs?

Looks like johns getting back in shape.
i just wanna know how john trains to get him beat worlds champions who seem lift super heavier ..so insane
Genetics bro
It's his cupping and pronation, hand/wrist super strong, that's how he could beat a much bigger guy like Denis in 2009.
John lookin big!
John's wrists are abnormally strong.
Vai treinar a vida toda e nunca vencerá o john 😂😂😂
that hammer sure looks nicely displayed, is there another on John's mind...?
Wtf...John looks like Zhoh but on right hand... It's so much bigger than left 🤣🤣🤣
3:00 "so easy i don't even have to strain"
Lol yeah fuck kings move
Nice Entertainment !
John's got some pretty serious muscle.
Probably shouldn't have done so much after-pulling at the Chance event lol. Better to spend that on John.
John's arm looks jacked after about the 9 minute mark!
When John was opening up your fingers and cracking uoui wrist, was that your choice or did you let him do that?
How did John feel here ryan? he looks like hes getting in good shape!

legendary
