Two things, 1 - Ryan is a terrific speaker / instructor with no shitty ego 2 - Larry is a GREAT student who also does not suffer from ego issues. Good work lads .. !!! This shit here is what creates high table IQ
I started making a comment about wow another telling Larry what to do. I watched the video and realized that your presentation and verbal training is by far the best he recieved yet. Great job Ryan.
I follow Ryan for about 3 years now, because I'm just into armwrestling and I like listening to people talking about the sport, but damn this video taught me so much I didn't expect this at all. Ryan is such a good teacher honestly and I feel like these were the best lessons Larry has gotten and I've watched every guest he had since the beginning of his journey. I almost never comment on videos... I probably have like 5 comments total for all the armwrestling channels I follow in years. But GODDAMN... well done Ryan you got a way with words to say the least and I think that if Larry implements these techniques he will level up for sure. Sorry for the long comment... I just got really excited and I wanted to share my opinion.
Bringing the match over to your side of the table is huge, but remember all that strength has to go through the wrist so your lats, biceps, is only as strong as your wrist allows it to be. Straight raiser/post and cup is key to allowing it.
Ryan,please write a book about armwrestling styles,techniques,exercises etc...bring your knowledge to us,australia is just to far away to book you,great content👍
Really like watching both these guys, Blue has amazing teaching ability with no ego. And Larry who is a monster still understands you can't beat experience and his no ego allows him to just keep absorbing info from all these pros he hangs out with. Larry is gonna start getting scary, and Blue it's always a pleasure watching your content. Great video guys.
Can we please get Ryan over to Dubai to train Larry for however long he can. By watching this video I feel that Larry learned a tremendous amount. Awesome job Ryan.
I'm not going to pretend to know what I'm talking about here, but I think the best thing for Larry right now is to put down the arm wrestling lifting movements, and spend a crap ton of time on the table with you, John, & Jordan Davis
Yeah, because everyone he trains with in Dubai just always want to win...there is no real good training that goes on in Dubai it seems like. And outside of the special guests he has show up from time to time he doesn't have a real good coach there to help him on a day in and day out basis. Not to mention the revolving door of special guests that show up just tell him different things all the time and I think he just gets confused. When he's pretty much the best arm wrestler in his team in Dubai, he's just not learning much.
@@RhinoViper he has some good armwrestlers there (much better than him), he just tends to beat most of them with pure power alone. If they train offscreen in the way ryan wants him to, larry could improve much quicker.
Yes, one has to get a real good feel for it, right? But I don't think so. I think Larry has to get his own style. His muscles are so taught, that I expect developing the backpressure and pronation enough, he would take the hand, maybe fatigue a more equal opponent in a more equal position, and then press. I don't think he can be quite as dynamic as other armwrestlers.
I am a layman in arm wrestling, but with a major background in sports science. The verbal technical instructions are excellent and so are the cues to make Larry feel what your points are. I agree with the others here who praise you as the best instructor for Larry so far.
17:02 "Creates the open door for me to come inside. If I just shoot without load. I'll show you what shooting without load feels like". This sport's terminology is tragically hilarious🤣🤣🤣 "Come inside" "Hooker" "Put the strap on" "Shoot with or without load"
Larry doesn't realise it but who knows this advice could be better than that from Levan, Devon, Alex, Dave, Ermes, MMT etc etc etc to make him reach his true potential
To be fair when Devon and MMT were teaching him Larry was literally just starting out.. Devon was trying to just teach him one letter in the alphabet because at that stage he didn't even know that. Any more in depth and it would have gone over Larry's head and most of it did Larry hadn't even competed at that stage. If you go watch the video Ryan put up a day or two ago of Devon giving a class on Arm Wrestling you will see a lot of the same talk as what Ryan used. I'm sure if he did a training session with Devon right now he would be taught what he needs right now.
The beginning were those flowery words that sound nice but won't help Larry... But towards the end there were some really good ideas. I really like the one about trying to be someone else to understand why they do what they do... That's a brilliant idea
Have to be honest. In the beginning I didn’t really like your content/person Ryan, but after following for a while and watched a lot of your videos, I really really like you 👍🏻 You and Devon are my go-to guys for arm wrestling most of the time. I like people not just full of shit but people who also educate and brings cool stuff to the sport. All the best Ryan, cheers from Norway 🇳🇴 (And by the way, Devon will destroy the puz…) 🙃
Really solid tutoring - don't like how people were hating on Blue for beating Larry wheels. I was rooting for Larry in that match and I think the ref could have done better, HOWEVER, people act like everyone has to roll down the red carpet for Larry. Of course Blue is extremely competitive and of course he will use his table acumen to help him win, in addition to speed and angles etc. It's war, and there is an art to war. I also can't believe how tall Blue is, lol.
Truth bombs there for Larry with establishing height at the start, develop his riser, and feeling rather than tee'n off all the time. It is the same reason you are so much better in the strap - you end up even or higher than your opponent where without the strap you end up lower most of the time. Great stuff.
No he’s better in the strap because his back pressure lay strength pulls on the low part of the strap which forces the opponents wrist to break and crack open. He also feels the connection to his hand with the straps like most bodybuilders do.
Out of all the coaches I’ve seen Larry work with your style made the most sense by far. It just never seems like Larry is truly paying attention to me.
One on the best instructional vids I’ve seen on setup. I think this will deffo fit into my style. I love how the rising back pressure turns into the hook.
I was really hoping you were going to do a video with Larry before he left Australia because people can say what they want but Ryan is definitely a great teacher for the sport
I must admit that it is quite entertaining to read all the Ryan Bowen needling that occurs online but with that being said you my friend are an amazing teacher. Your knowledge and passion for this armwrestling stuff just naturally emanates from you.
I am not an armwrestler, but these vids draw people like myself more into the world of armwrestling…as a fan, of course. Great vid, Ryan. You’re expanding my understanding in layman’s terms, and I’m sure giving out amazing advice to armrestlers in general.
Dude, this was a proper masterclass.. this is what Larry needs, i really do believe that.. to approach the sport as a combat sport n not just a strength sport.. attacks.. defense... Chase.. everything..
Found this to be genuinely refreshing. Would have loved to have seen a 40-60min version. Have you and Adam discussed you spending a few days in Dubai with Larry? It would be really interesting to see how Larry responds to this sort of light, feel-based training over a course of a few days. More importantly, the Dubai team needs this perspective. There seems to be a bit too much ready-go training in their practices (simply based on the videos we see).
Thanks to Ryan stepping up and doing this. We've all watchd larry through learning arm wrestling and know he seems to be progressing slowly because of his lack of flexibility and feel on the table. Hope he takes this and builds in it.
I've been watching you for quite some time Ryan, on your own channel as well as other places such as The Fix. I come to the opinion that you have a great awareness and understanding of armwrestling from hearing you speak and seeing you pull over the duration I've been watching you. I suspected you could add value to Larry's armwrestling game some time ago. This video has proven that for me. I hope Larry uses what you have shown him, because like you i think Larry can be a force in this sport. Thanks Ryan.
Probably the best bit of advise he has got to date all about feel action reaction 💪. To many styles in his ear those simple tips help him develop his own style and not rigid strength movements! Good job 👏 🇮🇪
Yes he needs to almost armwrestle with his eyes closed. There are a lot of big egos in his club though, I think it's the culture. He needs someone that he can spend time with not going 100% but just trying out all the different pressures and vectors. Learning how to counter them. Great advise
I really appreciate Larry, who has a brand to protect, still puts himself out there training and losing. This is very unique to see a talent document his journey on something he wants to conquer. i hope he makes it. Go Larry and Ryan
This is the best video you’ve ever done. Your teaching skills in this video are on point. How about a holiday to Dubai to train with Larry for a while? Maybe he can teach you how to get stronger in the gym
Can you do more videos on this Concept “how to have access to your power” for say hook pullers or people with good side pressure or top roll etc … we learn so much better with this idea of knowing what are the little adjustments necessary to lead the match where we are strong
I think I’ve learned more from this video then anything else I watched about arm wrestling training. I wish I not only know people that arm wrestle but also had more time for it. I found a love for this sport without actually being able to train with anyone or face anyone
I love armwrestling because it's more of a combat sport than a strength sport. It's so much more than "weight on ground needs to be off ground" or "weight over here needs to be over there." Strength and mass alone are not enough to get you to the top and I think Larry is a shining example of that.
Just watch this video and wow my friend so amazing the way you teach and try to show everyone how to arm wrestler anyone can learn so thank you so much for wanting to share your knowledge and information in the first place with me and so many others that you don’t no and it would be out of this world to be able to meet you and hang out for a little while and if there was any kind of table with we could use lol
It's bright AF out there Ryan! Get a translucent shade like a professional! Also great instruction and explanation. I was very curious how you beat Larry or how anyone beats Larry really. You made the theory of the fight much more accessible to us newcomers who know nothing about Armwrestling.
Two things, 1 - Ryan is a terrific speaker / instructor with no shitty ego 2 - Larry is a GREAT student who also does not suffer from ego issues. Good work lads .. !!! This shit here is what creates high table IQ
hard to have an ego when youre not winning often.
@@walkingsteak1719 - What’s funny is both of these guys have far more subscribers than the vast majority of the guys who win more.
@@kingwillie206 yeah its funny aha
Yeah cause Bowen and Larry is trash at the sport
@@walkingsteak1719 you really logged on to hate today huh?
This is exactly what Larry need, make him comfortable and make the table as his home
If Larry can learn how to use technique to grind people down and then force them into a biceps battle, he will be quite dangerous.
He's had so many teachers telling him how to armwrestle that he hasn't found what works for HIM
@@paulden3158
but Ryan knows where he lacks and he can tell him and correct those issues.
Table IQ comes from pulling more ppl
I started making a comment about wow another telling Larry what to do. I watched the video and realized that your presentation and verbal training is by far the best he recieved yet. Great job Ryan.
You’re a great teacher, Ryan
@Miki Miyazaki Neil and Ryan would be an awesome commentary team, I'd like them to a be a regular duo for KOTT.
@Miki Miyazaki I don't understand why so many people hate on Ryan he's definitely one of my favorites in arm wrestling

Sorry for the long comment... I just got really excited and I wanted to share my opinion.
Thanks for the long time support brother.
Back pressure is a part of the game I've always felt Larry could improve. He's got those huge lats but doesn't effectively use them to his advantage.
Bringing the match over to your side of the table is huge, but remember all that strength has to go through the wrist so your lats, biceps, is only as strong as your wrist allows it to be. Straight raiser/post and cup is key to allowing it.
Filling the gaps. That's great way of explaining the practice.
Very informative, good job Blue.
Yeah, when he said that everything come into focus
Ryan,please write a book about armwrestling styles,techniques,exercises etc...bring your knowledge to us,australia is just to far away to book you,great content👍
Really good advice for Larry, kudos to Ryan.
Really like watching both these guys, Blue has amazing teaching ability with no ego.

Literally best advice Larry has got. Exactly what he needed to be told. Great advice for beginners too

Passing on knowledge shows your true passion for the sport of Armwrestling .
We appreciate you Ryan .Kudos 🤙💪
Finally someone who can actually teach Larry!
This is incredible. I would love to have this kind of a training partner.
How wonderful and articulate teacher you are...kudos😎🤘!
After watching this video I just realized Arm Wrestling is a fucking art, thanks for sharing all this knowledge Ryan.
Yes sir
17:02 "Creates the open door for me to come inside. If I just shoot without load. I'll show you what shooting without load feels like". This sport's terminology is tragically hilarious🤣🤣🤣
"Come inside"
"Hooker"
"Put the strap on"
"Shoot with or without load"
The comment we didnt deserve but the one we needed. Thanks for the laugh
I Disagree.
This was easily my second favorite Ryan blue Bowen video ever.
Larry doesn't realise it but who knows this advice could be better than that from Levan, Devon, Alex, Dave, Ermes, MMT etc etc etc to make him reach his true potential
To be fair when Devon and MMT were teaching him Larry was literally just starting out.. Devon was trying to just teach him one letter in the alphabet because at that stage he didn't even know that. Any more in depth and it would have gone over Larry's head and most of it did Larry hadn't even competed at that stage.

I'm sure if he did a training session with Devon right now he would be taught what he needs right now.
I cant put into words how much of a positive influence you, Larry, & arm wrestling as a whole has been on my life. love you guys
Amazing video and I love this collaboration. I think Larry has already had multiple revelations in the 20 minutes of you talking with him🔥
The beginning were those flowery words that sound nice but won't help Larry... But towards the end there were some really good ideas. I really like the one about trying to be someone else to understand why they do what they do... That's a brilliant idea

That was the first thing Larry said to me when we met......oh wow you are a lot taller than I expected
Great stuff Ryan
You’re a great instructor for Larry and honestly this video was good for me as well. Thanks Ryan
I hope Larry absorbed the lessons taught to him. Ryan did him a great service that could help him tremendously.
Loved it Blue! Actually for a laugh, maybe should do a video impersonating all the main guys, you're pretty good at it
Love this! This is what my buddy and I do for our training all the time. Amazing what you feel playing around like that. Your a damn good teacher
Truth bombs there for Larry with establishing height at the start, develop his riser, and feeling rather than tee'n off all the time.

That was fantastic. The 10-15 % bit is on point. Learning to feel the match is huge. Probably the 2 best laughs on youtube!
This is the first time I’ve seen Larry get information in a way that’s digestible, I’ve noticed when he can feel things he comprehends it better
Great job Ryan! I think this will be larry's greatest way of improving. Slow, concise, and verbal training. Good shit boys
Out of all the coaches I’ve seen Larry work with your style made the most sense by far. It just never seems like Larry is truly paying attention to me.
know it alls know everything bruh.
impossible to get some people to listen
Thanks
One on the best instructional vids I’ve seen on setup. I think this will deffo fit into my style. I love how the rising back pressure turns into the hook.
I was really hoping you were going to do a video with Larry before he left Australia because people can say what they want but Ryan is definitely a great teacher for the sport
Beautiful interaction and communication sharing the nuances, caveats and woes of armwrestling.
Larry will get there I like how he’s quiet the whole time
I must admit that it is quite entertaining to read all the Ryan Bowen needling that occurs online but with that being said you my friend are an amazing teacher. Your knowledge and passion for this armwrestling stuff just naturally emanates from you.
You can tell Larry is really trying to soak up all this information. Great work coach Ryan
Must be hard having access to the best minds in arm wrestling when you’re just starting out. Information overload
I wish bro
Larry is like a toddler going against an Olympian. Tournaments is what he needs instead of Supermatches right now
Such a hassle.
That's great!!! Can't wait to watch this video, you are a great coach brother, you'll make him x5 better!
Ryan .. that was a 20 min masterclass .. I salute you !!
I am not an armwrestler, but these vids draw people like myself more into the world of armwrestling…as a fan, of course. Great vid, Ryan. You’re expanding my understanding in layman’s terms, and I’m sure giving out amazing advice to armrestlers in general.

You and Devon teaching wise understand the table so well. I know Larry appreciates it 💯
This was nothing short of brilliant! Thank you!
Ryan, this is AMAZING! Great job to both of you guys 💪🏼
Wow..u are the best Ryan...very precise coaching in 21 minutes...
Must Watch video. This is perfect. Thank you for this. Everyone interested in Arm wrestling should watch this.
Congratulations Ryan . Amazing teaching. U made my love for a/w lvls up.
Wow really out done yourself with this one. Going to save and watch multiple times and practice the flow.
Probably the best bit of advise he has got to date all about feel action reaction 💪. To many styles in his ear those simple tips help him develop his own style and not rigid strength movements! Good job 👏 🇮🇪

This is some valuable stuff! Looks like this is the first time Larry gets taught HOW to learn armwrestling instead of just what to learn.
I really appreciate Larry, who has a brand to protect, still puts himself out there training and losing. This is very unique to see a talent document his journey on something he wants to conquer. i hope he makes it. Go Larry and Ryan
This was a really great video, clear and conscise - I don't armwrestle at all and I understood what you were trying to teach - impressive stuff!
Maybe my favourite video by Ryan Bowen ever!! Brilliant work mate
Thanks Dave!
Larry gets intel from the best of the best, you can get him far with more table time... IMO you're the best teacher he ever had
Super cool of you to get him on to give him the finer points of this lesson. And really cool of him to come out for it.
Hell ya. Heck of a story. I left feeling more aware of the game and a greater appreciation of both sides of strength and agility.
Ryan you're awesome man, it's great to show Larry how to improve
This is the best video you’ve ever done. Your teaching skills in this video are on point. How about a holiday to Dubai to train with Larry for a while? Maybe he can teach you how to get stronger in the gym

great video blue.
I guarantee most of us who watched this will implement it in our training.
Thanks for lesson.
Wow great video, you really shined here M. Bowen!
Good teaching Ryan!
That was very instructive. Larry, welcome to Brisbane!
I think I’ve learned more from this video then anything else I watched about arm wrestling training. I wish I not only know people that arm wrestle but also had more time for it. I found a love for this sport without actually being able to train with anyone or face anyone

Amazing lesson Ryan 🙇♂️!
great instruction ryan... seriously nice info focuses on Larrys attributes
Blue is red hot in this one! What a great teacher, I learned a lot too.
Great vid Ryan. Good teacher

Best coaching Larry received by far!
Excellent video and delivery, Blue!
Great teacher Mr Bowen, even I got it.I think Larry should hire you!
Great lesson Ryan! The shooting without load really had me :D
Glad Larry went to OTT. Thanks guys 👌👍💪
Best on screen coaching for Larry so far
You really did a great job Ryan
We love you Blue!
MORE !!!!!! WE NEED MORE !!!!!
