Totally agree with your argument, of fingers letting go and than the wrist opens up! Noticed that training with guy with two hands. Wrist flexion is iron but when the weak fingers open up than the wrist comes later... One strong guy I know stated he barly trains wrist, but his wirst was super solid. His fingers were notably stronge than most...
It’s in the works. I actually give out basic conjugate templates for free but you know, the program isn’t the secret to getting stronger and hiring a coach isn’t just about the programming.
I'd guess that there are different aspects carrying over, but is there any point in doing chest flies vs bench press? I kinda hate bench pressing (probably since I'm pretty bad at it, repping 70kg at 95kg bodyweight), but chest flies are fun and I'm able to rep 100kg there, so it's more mentally pleasing.
That’s where you *should* feel pressure as opposed to your fingertips. It’s a whole discussion on its own but basically you express wrist flexion with your palm and you keep the match within your palm with that strength, not so much with fingertips. But, also, thicker hands from training it.
Dips are a fine exercise in general but I don’t think the effect on the wrist is quite as beneficial and you’re locking out your shoulders behind you which isn’t the case in bench press or armwrestling.
@@ChrisDrummondAW Thanks for the answer, brother. What about the strenght endurance? What should we do for that? During the table time, I can only give my %100 only for 3 matches. I can defeat some guys so easily but after 10-20 minutes. They can defeat me so easily. I don't know what to do. That's a pretty bad situation and makes me depressed. Plz help, God bless you. Have a nice day.
@@ChrisDrummondAW How do you know if you can still squat double BW after no leg training over 4 years though? If you are still doing it, then that's leg training...
@@l-i-o-nslight9930 let’s not be pedantic. I did one session 8 months back where I worked up to a fee heavy singles. Easy single with 495, could’ve tripled it. 0 leg training between March 2018 and that session in July 2022. It’s on my channel.
thumb curls>bench press
i am new to training in armwrestling. I love these videos you make. Very appreciative! Hope you and your family are blessed good sir
That’s like telling Jerry Cadorette that his bench press doesn’t work “for him”. To each its own, it’s all personal preference IMO
there's a reason I've never stopped doing bench press and it's not just because I like it.
@@ChrisDrummondAW I do it for side pressure and press purposes
I agree 100% with the grip, I can't say about the bench, I've never benched before however occasionally ill do some push ups.
Thanks brother - such great insight

awesome
Yo, just found your chanel. Great content. You should do a 10min simple vid on a basic program for arm wrestling.
It’s in the works. I actually give out basic conjugate templates for free but you know, the program isn’t the secret to getting stronger and hiring a coach isn’t just about the programming.
Just my opinion, I think heavy JM presses will probably have a better carryover than bench itself
Great for straight press/elbow connection but they don't do as much for the shoulder and chest. No reason not to do both.
@@ChrisDrummondAW Absolutely, I do both. I usually straight press so that's why I am biased lol!
👍

Do both, but fly is not nearly as beneficial for armwrestling.
@@ChrisDrummondAW Gotcha, thank you for answering!
What'd you say is the armwrestling application of grip through the proximal phalanx of the fingers?
That’s where you *should* feel pressure as opposed to your fingertips. It’s a whole discussion on its own but basically you express wrist flexion with your palm and you keep the match within your palm with that strength, not so much with fingertips. But, also, thicker hands from training it.
What about Dips? I think Dips is better than bench press and it is harder than the Bench Press.

@@muhammetali7814 I'm actually about to drop a video about this. Stay tuned...

Squats with also increase human growth hormone
I guess that the increased hgh secretion will go mostly to ur legs not arms
build a strong squat, boost testosterone, that will carry over in your being....
Just broscience. As a former powerlifter (and can still squat over double BW despite no leg training in over 4 years) that’s all nonsense.
