I watched the three 101 vids. I've been in the teaching business for 20 years and coaching for 10. You sir have great skill at explaining/coaching. And Mrs Monster camera work is perfect at showing instructional angles. TY for the lessons.
Ive been doing it with neutral grip pullups but with out the spinning handdle, just fully cupping over the bar and its really nice on the forearms. Should I try and use spinning handles? I almost feel that they should be harder without the spinning handles but I dont know I have not tried them. Just curious cause im new..
Very informative video mister, thanks. I was listening ivan matyushenko and engin terzi one day and ivan said he made a research and found out that most of the winners in the amateurs are the ones with 1st : stronger cupping 2nd: stronger internal rotation(side pressure) . But when I think now yeah if you cant rise, you dont have any access to your cupping and side pressure you are right. Even when you are just doing hammer curls if you lose your riser you are pretty much done
Another awesome , informative video. If arm wrestling ever kicked off in the mainstream, I hope you'd start your own wrestling school i.e. be like a residential 10 month academy like they do with soccer in Europe.
@@MonsterMichaelTodd you da man ..also , your tips on technique are snd to none ...and your gym is the exact same green as mine!! ...i feel at home! Lol! ....thanks for all ..stay safe!😊💪💪💪
Amazing video Michael, by the way if it is better to train radial deviation by using raising exercise like hammer curl ecc its the same for ulnar Deviation?it's better like train that with triceps Extension or with Isolation exercise?thanks
Where do you draw the line between training the same exercise every day and worrying about the muscle not healing/building first? Would like to understand that sweet spot to increase my training.
I saw a Travis Bagent video where he said simply that he does six exercises... Bench, curls, and lat pulls. Then, on alternating days he does dips, pull ups and should press. He said he does 20 sets of 5 reps. So, do you have a plan like that? I’ve been doing a modified version of his workout since August. I have a cable and table, so I added cupping and other wrist and forearm exercises to his original six. Of course, I only do 3 sets of 8 (for each exercise), but I try to keep it consistent. If I miss a day, I just do the next group as if I didn’t miss a day. Anyway, again, do you have a video that lays out your week?
@@MonsterMichaelTodd sweet. I'm in Northeast Texas. About 4 hours from Littlerock. Not sure if that's where your stuff gets made but I wouldn't mind a little drive.
@@MonsterMichaelTodd Your welcome . I have to admit that's pretty cool if I was a arm wreslting champ or anything relevant that's exaclty what i would shoot for at time like this.
@@MonsterMichaelTodd Because yeah I did hear when you mentioned you wanted to have a match with Levan and I also seem the post of you in him in it like a vs. Problem is the shutdowns with the virus.
people that work on cars have strong hands and wrists i used to work on cars and i would jam my finger on the metal all the time so increased my pain tolerance, and turning them wrenches, will help wrist, one of my Auto mechanic teacher was like late 50's and his for arms were huge.
Can you día vid on how to cure thumb pain from top rolling I played with my uncle a few days ago and I can’t grip anything with Ku thumb because it hurts to much any tips?
No one gonna comment on how much fucking WEIGHT that is on that wrist blaster?! Most people only do like 10 to 20 lbs on that thing! Damn! He made it look simp
@@ixtlanmalleus5064 that's not why i mentioned cadorette💀 No matter how much cup and pronation u have Jerry always finds a way to avoid it and still win 💀
This is the kind of experienced info that really gives me an inside view to the sport-ty Monster!
Happy to hear
Nice work Michael, I'll be adding some of these into my workouts.
Enjoy, #gains

Thank you for the kind words & we appreciate the support
I've been doing those type of seated rows cups and oh man, everyone should add the cup to it. forearms are gaining! Good stuff
It is indeed
Ive been doing it with neutral grip pullups but with out the spinning handdle, just fully cupping over the bar and its really nice on the forearms. Should I try and use spinning handles? I almost feel that they should be harder without the spinning handles but I dont know I have not tried them. Just curious cause im new..
Something about this video feels like oldschool VHS training guides. Love it.
Whatever works 👍
Great tips and explanations. As a beginner, I really appreciate the information. Especially the finer points about form!
Happy to hear
@@MonsterMichaelTodd i second that. These videos are gold
Ive been doing dumbbell rows with a fat grip cupping. It seems to work very well.
Good deal
Just wanna say shout to Mrs. Monster her editing skills getting pretty damn good!
She’s killing it 💯👍
thank you for so many lessons
Hope it helps
The quality on your videos has gotten amazing.
Really appreciate the information champ!💪🏽
Thank you for the support
Your a good teacher Michael, thanks for the tips!

Exactly
the reason Devon uses his thump is to strengthen the thumb for better pronation
Interesting
Great tips Champ..thanks 💪💪💪🔥
Always working 👍
Wow great video , I never thought I would be a fan of Todd as I am a massive Devon fan,
Great tips from strongest american armwrestler. Make vidio about pronation or top roll tips
Thank you! It’s next in the series
Thats a massive forearm mike
Always working
Can't wait for pronation video. Whenever I train pronation all I feel is my biceps lol? 😂
You often will in your lower bicep
i like much more the last handle
It’s a brutal handle for sure
Yes Sir this is the MMT we didnt know we needed lesshhgoo 💪🏽
Awesome vide guys. Keep them coming 💪🏼💪🏼
Thank you 👍
Very informative, please do more training videos of variation with no table since most gyms don't have them!
More videos coming soon
Such great content thank you Monster!!! Been following you for a very long time!
hi michael, what do you think is better: table to pulse with friends or go to the gym to do specific exercises? thank you
Both are equally important
Excellent video and info!
Thank you 👍
Loving this series of educational training videos. Thanks Monster 👹. Curious if you ever train using a Multi spinner?
Happy to hear!
I do not, most of my cable pulls are with the ArtArm (toproll position) or with the handle in this video
great tips thank you Michael
Glad you liked it
Thank you so much monster pure gold 👍
Glad you enjoyed it
Your are Awesome. I'm so happy to see that people are liking you more and more.🖖
Thank you & appreciate the support
Yes champ! I would definitely buy myself an MMT handle if you were to start a little online shop
Good to know & thx for the support
TX MONSTER AND MRS MONSTER!!

Definitely a cool idea
Hi Mike love these videos 👍 I have one question: Why do you prefer the spinning handle compared to some kind of wrist wrench on the table pulls?
It just feels more comfortable
Hehe now that's what I call service, getting answers from one of the best to ever do it when he's half a world away in 30seconds 😅👍
👍💪💯
Such a dope little gym... need to get Devon out here for a few days of training
Thank you! That would be awesome!
Thank you Monster... good sharing.. 👍💪
Is wrist ball products effective for cupping also? Also im assuming lats are a key muscle for top roll correct?
If we are thinking about the same product, then absolutely! IMO, the lat is key in both toprolling & hooking!
Good advice. Always great to remember the fundamental weaknesses. Lord knows I got plenty of them lol.
Always working
Great job Mike 👍... Love the channel!
Thank you for the support

Michael Todd is awesome and I like that guy 💪
Lol, love it 💯👍
@@ronzbee3458 you know nothing about arm wrestling
Do you ever use the wrist wrench ?? For one hand cupping and what's your opinion on the handle?
Not as much anymore, but it’s an amazing handle for cable pulls
I need one of them monster wrist curls
Cool shirt
Thank you 👍
Very nice 👍🏼
Glad you liked it
Thank you...Sir🙏🏻❤💪🏻
Monster, what gym handles or implements do you recommend for beginner armwrestlers?
The same as I do for advanced armwrestlers
Sir plz make video on the topic kingsmove exercise
I don’t train the kings move
Amazing video Michael, by the way if it is better to train radial deviation by using raising exercise like hammer curl ecc its the same for ulnar Deviation?it's better like train that with triceps Extension or with Isolation exercise?thanks
Lets gooo
Always working 💯👍
Where do you draw the line between training the same exercise every day and worrying about the muscle not healing/building first? Would like to understand that sweet spot to increase my training.
I relate hand & wrist training to having a manual labor job so, I do it daily & then rest for a week prior to competition
@@MonsterMichaelTodd Makes sense, thank you for the reply!
💪💯👍
1:17 I wish they sold these wrist roller add-on for the barbells
I saw a Travis Bagent video where he said simply that he does six exercises... Bench, curls, and lat pulls. Then, on alternating days he does dips, pull ups and should press. He said he does 20 sets of 5 reps. So, do you have a plan like that? I’ve been doing a modified version of his workout since August.

Nothing in one video, but videos of all of my workouts are on our channel
Very nice
Thank you 👍
@@MonsterMichaelTodd welcome
Great series love it !! Do you train , cup , rising, pronation the same Day ?
Not always, but I often do
What's your thought on flash starts and side pressure
I think they are AWESOME 😎
We will see you in tournaments soon or not
I have a left hand match this Saturday for the TAL Championship
Good video sounds great 👍💪 great show
Good one!
Thx 👍
Where are those monster curl barbells made at? Could I have one made and just pick it up in person?
It’s a work in progress, but the in person pick up is definitely possible
@@MonsterMichaelTodd sweet. I'm in Northeast Texas. About 4 hours from Littlerock. Not sure if that's where your stuff gets made but I wouldn't mind a little drive.
👍💪👌
O melhor Atleta
If I punch a punching bag will my wrist still be strong for armwrestling?
Depends on your wrist, but probably be safest to wrap them
@@MonsterMichaelTodd who you got Devon or Levan
When you go to fight a pal supermatch does they give you a fresh shirt with your name written on it or they tell you to wear the previous one
Fresh shirt
Great video I'm curious are you still going to try and take on Levan in a match ?
Thank you!!
That’s the plan!! 💯👍
@@MonsterMichaelTodd Your welcome . I have to admit that's pretty cool if I was a arm wreslting champ or anything relevant that's exaclty what i would shoot for at time like this.
@@MonsterMichaelTodd Because yeah I did hear when you mentioned you wanted to have a match with Levan and I also seem the post of you in him in it like a vs. Problem is the shutdowns with the virus.
Is the reason everyone losing to Khalid’s cupping is his hand’s size or hand’s strength or both ??
Both
people that work on cars have strong hands and wrists i used to work on cars and i would jam my finger on the metal all the time so increased my pain tolerance, and turning them wrenches, will help wrist, one of my Auto mechanic teacher was like late 50's and his for arms were huge.
Nice info. Thx boss

Can you día vid on how to cure thumb pain from top rolling I played with my uncle a few days ago and I can’t grip anything with Ku thumb because it hurts to much any tips?

Hi Michael
With all the respect in the world sir, I’m officially adopting you as my grandfather.
Lol, how old do you think I am 🤷🏻♂️
@@MonsterMichaelToddHaha fair enough
9th hole at 9. Its a secret of the pros.
Jerry cadorette has entered the chat 💀
He need to invite the big daddy to know how to train properly that cuping lol
@@ixtlanmalleus5064 that's not why i mentioned cadorette💀
No matter how much cup and pronation u have Jerry always finds a way to avoid it and still win 💀
@@Lunarpollo5622 I thought you were been sarcastic or something lol, english is not my first language so...
Monster, I just called Big Al's and the employee told me it got canceled due to covid-19. Wtf?
Not what we are told. I’ll be there
training cupping makes my wrist click and hurts badly. anyone else?
*cries in poor teen who can’t afford the fat spinning handles
Or you can be like jerry...have no wrist strength and not need it haha...thst man let's his wrist bend back hard....pins with a wrist haha
the biggest disgrace in armwrestling Michael Todd
You misspelled CHAMPION 😂
And how many titles do you have? Besides troll of course.
