gnasher16 29,664 Posted September 23, 2019 Report Share Posted September 23, 2019 (edited) I know it wont be of interest to many but its the biggest night of the World Arm Wrestling League calendar on Wednesday night....i was chatting with a couple of chaps off here a while ago who seemed vaguely interested so if you,ve been following it whats your predictions ? I reckon at heavyweight... Michael Todd to beat Jerry Cadorette Middleweight ...Rvj to beat Justin Bishop ( but i hope he doesnt ) LIghtweight ...Tony Kitowski to beat Sam Harris The feature match Larratt to win.....and look out for a cracking little blonde sort Sarah Backman to win the womens match. Should be a great night of honest,direct physical confrontation,knowledge and technical ability.....to the 1 or 2 folk with any interest Edited September 23, 2019 by gnasher16 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It wont be live mate i have to watch it on the pc.....you pay a few quid and get one of your kids to set it up for you .....but yes it will be shown at some point,look out for the Showcase channel number 192 on a wednesday night.....i think they are going through the Wal 400's at the moment which is last years. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yes ive competed at a decent level Wilf ive been at it for years but we,ve only just set up proper competition tables and specific training nights in local gyms its nowhere near as big In England as parts of Europe and America/Canada......but yes you can stay competitive till later in life at a good level,technique and physiological understanding plays a massive part as does strength and the whole psychology of sport..... its as confrontational as you can get yet you very rarely see anything less than total respect and sportsmanship.....it really is a nice sport. 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

A lot of gyms are getting into it mate our gym here has 14 competition tables and we have training nights twice per week......messing about with your pals across the dining table will teach you nothing and is dangerous. Its more about tendon strength than muscle strength but of course everything helps.....you have to be strong in the whole arm from fingertips to shoulder,strong lats,strong abs,they are all going to come into play.....a perfectly built arm wrestler will have toothpicks for legs and carry all his power up top......but its mostly about the connections you can make between muscle groups/tendons/ligaments etc......its not just a muscle fest ! 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Now your not going to start expressing relentlessly uncompromising opinions on something you know absolutely nothing about are you. That would be so out of character for you. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
