John Brzenk goes explains some techniques in armwrestling and shows you how they are done. This was my first time using transitions so the ones I've picked may be absolute rubbish like...
You learned the wrong thing though. You're NOT allowed to "get behind your hand as far as you can" as Brzenk put it, because you're not allowed to cross the center with your shoulder.
the bit about pushing with your tricep is totally false. It's a body movement. You can even see him here using his core and pushing the body behind the arm to win - not using his tricep but his core. He does it right but he describes it totally wrong. He also ends up too far under the table after one of those moves... Though he still shows the basic moves pretty well. It is amazing how long people will talk for without teaching shit. Devon spends 3 hours and doesn't teach you how to even top roll in that time lmfao. I think he wanted people to call him back on a regular basis to hear another single piece of advice given in 3 hours. But people didn't bite. AFter the first shit show they didn't want him back :P
@@nvmffs what are you smoking? John beat Denis easily back in the day, so how can Denis be of all time? Yeah Denis hadn't finished taking his nuclear steroids yet, but Denis was still twice his size, and John wrecked him. You got alot to learn about what it takes to be called the greatest of all time. No arm wrestler has achieved the same records as John over the same time span. None.
So in the dragging hook, you set the hook (wrist curl with supination), then you drag him out with your wrist still curled, but using your pronator giving you also full access to your brachii and brachioradialis full power to make him go down to the pad right?
I looked for videos when I started almost 15 years ago and have never seen this. Great clip...where did you get it? Edit: OK I see it's 9 years old...still. Great find.
Devon Larratt had a video about side pressure. He says he's tried to train it and do it, but it puts too much stress on the elbow ligaments and they get inflamed.
@@saintofconsequence can you link me to that position ? Isn't every move in armwresling have some side pressure in it ? The sweep only removes the hand moving...
It's an advanced technique. like the flop press and king's move, if you go for it ill prepared the risk of injury is probably higher than a standard hook or toproll. The flop press tends to be like this for a lot of people, too. Devon said training side pressure specifically lead to injury, but he finds he doesn't really need to train it directly as he still improves from other training and he can rely more heavily on direct side pressure if he does need to. He just doesn't rely on it as his primary weapon. Personally I think training the tendons and connective tissue with straight arm exercises like the planche, front lever, back lever, and even iron cross should be good for building the connective tissue integrity in the elbows and shoulders.
Lol is this technique. Will it work without strenght . I see all the people doing same but y brzenk only succeded. If i did that with devon larrat(cyplenkov,pushkar,chaffee,bagent and almost every good armwrestler ) will it work . It is strenght simply . Not technique which is almost 5% or 10%
It of course takes strength as well, but in raw numbers in the gym Brzenk wasn't necessarily the strongest guy. The efficacy of the techniques is lost in the subtlety of the fine details of the biomechanics. Even Johnny Walker said about John's technique "he knew something I didn't". I guarantee there's much more to it than what's presented in this video - this is just a simple yet generally detailed overview of the most prominent techniques.
I learned more in 70 seconds than in 70 minutes worth of other videos.
You learned the wrong thing though. You're NOT allowed to "get behind your hand as far as you can" as Brzenk put it, because you're not allowed to cross the center with your shoulder.

@@agnidas5816 I imagine you still have to engage your triceps to keep your hand and forearm from collapsing into your body.
I guess you guys are more knowledgeable than Brzenk. smh
Here's more content than in 95% videos, God bless Brzenk)
I love this guy.
Check out the new video of his pointers in written form, "John Brzenk: armwrestling tips."
No joke.
And in just one minute lol
right
This explains the two ways to do a top roll nicely.
Theres more the Cobra style tooroll
@@0bliviodice Good point. There are many slight variations, different angles by degree, etc.
Apart from a hook, all the other techniques feel like cheating to me.
The hook is the purest display of strength.
@@michaeltrumph121 well in my opinion armwrestling is more of a display of skill
@@softcat939
But it shouldn't be about that, it should just be about who is the strongest
Straight to the point geez lol
I wonder how many folks realize the second sparring partner is John's brother Bill.
Look exactly like him
For a sec I thought them to be the same!
"Use superior side pressure to take your opponent to the pad", geez why didn't I think of that? :P
Todd zilla mind set lol
Hahahaha
Pushkar style.
Best 1 minute video in armwrestling.
perfect technique on everything and he has won matches with every single one of these techniques which is something very very few can say.
Unbelievable how much knowledge is in this short video. Wow.
Nice, to see these techniques from the GOAT himself💪🏽
Larry wheels needs to watch this!
Finally a clear definition of a hook and top roll
I learn a lot from the legend john drzenk techniques I am good at arm wrestling me undefeated learn from the best.
I would beat you in armwrestling i am 16 and i beat every adult in armwrestling i learned hook and posting top roll.
MrChewy Channel You're funny kid
@@mrchewychannel3429 that's nice.
@@mrchewychannel3429 damn you're 25 now or some shit
This video can be supplemented by what he has expressed verbally over the years.
Check out, "John Brzenk | Armwrestling TIPS." A new vid.
Loved the demonstration of the dead wrist press, he's like "some people like to use it" 😆 and notice he did not demonstrate the kings move.
Cause in this video he was only telling about attack move and kingsmove is defense move
Brzenk, greatest of all time. Always will be.
Tesch is the best. Proof? th-cam.com/video/Qc0OwiC9BzY/w-d-xo.html
@@brianbook3797 Dont embarrass yourself here.

Of his time* Denis is of all time

The best-Mr.Brzenk teaching us Arm Wrestling 101!!!
He would’ve show Kings Move as well if he had a camera installed under the table.
genius
this should be a armwrestling first day lesson video
Gold from the Master himself

the best :D
Dragging hook was awesome
Pure gold!
just amazing
Brzenk was good but...Tesch is the best. th-cam.com/video/Qc0OwiC9BzY/w-d-xo.html
Lastima que no entiendo muy bien el ingles pero solo con estos segundos de video aprendi mas.

Tremendo vídeo
Greatest
0:33 almost under the table lol kk
Cassius Gaio still a 90° on the bicep and not completely open arm like Todd sitting down resting like that ;P
Is that his brother?
Yup, second dude is his brother Bill. Not sure who the first guy is, maybe papa Brzenk?
World champ right here
Hook and drag
Shoulder role get behind your hand as far as you get and pushing down with triceps
Dead wrist press
word!
Awesome how he got chuck norris to be his partner for thar video
k im rdy
1:00 what is the name of this technique?? I could not understand him...
He calls it “the sweep”. It’s basically all side pressure
@@derek8674 thnx
Checkout todd Hutchings highlights
Really Nice
Nice 👌
what year was this? neat video
Wow! I learnt every move in 1 min
I hope I can teach my clone like he does
so is it a kind of rock paper scissors deal, if my opponent does this move i have to do this move
С днем космонавтики 60 лет🛰️🛸🚀и мне 26 лет и 2 месяца! 😎🔥👍#поехали
" Professor "
jhon"s only technique is to be super strong in side pressure
The only person can beat John Brzenk is the same John Brzenk
The sweep..... I thought you were NEVER supposed to arm wrestle side to side.
+Brent z If you train it very carefully you'll be fine
Devon Larratt had a video about side pressure. He says he's tried to train it and do it, but it puts too much stress on the elbow ligaments and they get inflamed.

Brent z He's also pulling, in a top roll, but maintaining that side pressure as well.
Where is the kings move ???
Thats posting top roll
Young Magic no it’s not
Id that his brother

No dad move, no can opener, no king’s move? 😂
the last one should be called hutching's move..

2019 anyone?
Нахуй мне в рекомендацию попало это видео, если в нём нету русских субтитров?
Here he was off season, off juice for sure. Look At him against Cyplenkov, he was duble în size, same as that Cyrnobil mutant, both juiced as fuck...
He wasn't that juiced, he beat Cyplenkov because he was (way) more skilled.
John Brzenk claimed to take trt to prevent muscle loss in his 40's.
