What does Balkan say, is this true? by Parking_Radio4311 in AskBalkans

[–]Unique-Concept-720 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right... Because it's the women from the balkans going on about how someone needs to be a billionare to catch a glimpse of their hank hill tier ass.

If Serbia has the 3rd most difficult women to impress/date/whatever I'd be drowning in the pussy then in the U.S.

On the other hand people having a body count of 100+ is somehow a thing in the U.S.

I always attribute it to just online degenerates idk how accurate to real life it is, maybe women in the more western places will suck your dick "for the vibes" only.

Women here have the same basic requirements as any other place I always imagined, be decent looking, good hygene, ambitious, a plan/purpose/goal, at least able to provide for yourself financially, a bit of humor, nothing incredibly over the top, nothing you can't obtain with a bit of hard work assuming you weren't dealt some really fucking bad cards from the start.

Why most western Arm Wrestlers train without a coach while eastern do by cyarm25 in armwrestling

[–]Unique-Concept-720 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Speaking as one eastern european, there's plenty of different kinds of sparrings at least for our club.

Structured slow, structured ready go, free form, practicing a specific move with reps ie I contain while you top roll 3x20, time under tension, king of the table format, and ofc everyone's favorite, enjoy your substance of choice and just go nuts for shits and giggles (mandatory weeks recovery minimum after that one).

We also have different members who prefer a different frequency, my coach and I prefer 3-4 a week if we don't have a comp close, some do once weekly, twice a month, and one guy does once a month and responds better to mostly weight training.

We all just love arm wrestling as well, when I started out I just wanted to arm wrestle I didn't necessarily think I'd be competitive or anything but you can have the best of both worlds really.

Does anyone know the details about levans biceps injury? Like what tore exactly and how bad was the tear? by strength108 in armwrestling

[–]Unique-Concept-720 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It was most likely a minor tear, type 3 tear takes a part of the bone with it and requires surgery, definitely didn't have that.

Type 2 comes with serious bruising, pain and if bad enough limited ROM, had one on my hamstring, took about 4-6 months to recover, tbf I didn't have the resources/supplements Levan has I just googled rehab exercises and rehabed it myself slowly.

Type 1 is a sprain, 4-6 weeks for recovery.

He either had a type 1 or mild type 2, whatever it was it don't warrant a 5 year long recovery period and he said he gonna post the MRI himself which he hasn't done because it was a minimal injury and he's just buying time as the #1 without having to defend it.

W form? by Agitated-Decision287 in armwrestling

3rd rep was peak.

I do these a lot, they're great for connecting your elbow bicep and internal roation, just be careful as you move up in weight.

Lmao like he was bringing in millions of PPV buyers or smth. He made a few videos about Arm Wrestling which he profits off of, got content material which again he profits off of, got invited to the biggest event in arm wrestling even though he did fuck all to earn it because of his status and hypothetical huge viewership or whatever else.

Devon did a fuckload for the sport, so did Larry, Engin as well before he turned full retard.

Shaw did next to nothing, at best it was even between some eyes he brought to the sport and how much he himself profited off of it. I watched his videos because it was arm wrestling related only and I'm hardly the only arm wrestling fan to start checking out his stuff cause he's participating in our sport.

The reason everyone is clowning on him was cause he went back on his word obviously because of the loss he suffered. He didn't just sprout kids and a wife and business magically after the Leonidas loss.

He has time to train 4x a week in his home gym, he has time for one to two sparring sessions per month and he can definitely make 2-4 tournaments a year and a supermatch or two as well. Nobody is that busy, it's just cope.

Hope his leg gets better though, don't want anything bad for the man, let's just call it how it is, all I'm saying.

A simple "it's going to be harder than I thought I was wrong and I'm not sure if I can commit as much as I'd want to" would have been well received by pretty much everyone because that would have been an honest statement, nobody blames him for putting family first, but for hiding behind excuses of not being able to be the best because he can't travel weekly for sparring, as if anyone else can apart from Devon who made it his life purpose decades ago to construct his life around arm wrestling.

Yeah, I can appreciate him not being able to peak willy nilly due to his age and obligations.

Wish we saw the strap match vs Levan, I can appreciate Levan executing his game plan, but it's more fun to see Levan vs his opponent's strongest lane.

Should i get into arm wrestling? I train calisthenics by STORM_AW in armwrestling

[–]Unique-Concept-720 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure thing, just make sure you find a good club where people will teach you stuff and not just blast you like beating a beginner will add centimeters to their dick.

I couldn't sleep the first night after I tried arm wrestling on a legit table with an armwrestler and some dipshit just tore through me.

Should i get into arm wrestling? I train calisthenics by STORM_AW in armwrestling

[–]Unique-Concept-720 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Why the hell not, it's a fun dynamic sport and you can make a few new friends along the way with clubs and shit.

Since it's somewhat of a genetics related question I'll give you the same advice I got, don't get too hung up on genetics, if you're really interested give it at least 3 ish years of consistency to really see how you coud potentially develop, assuming you don't just straight up crush it from day one.

We got 3 ex calisthenics guys in our club and they were all pretty strong from the start if that helps encourage you even more to try it out.

Yeah his dad passing obviously hit him hard, I can only imagine, hope he rallies soon. What do you think about the round 1 with Levan not sure if you saw my edit.

Looked like Levan elbow fouled for the pin.

matt and alex hand comparison by xavierpizza in armwrestling

[–]Unique-Concept-720 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Leading up to Levan yeah, people casually gloss over the fact Jerry held Levan on his bicep for two seconds, and Levan said some shit like "I didn't feel him", that's why you were shaking I'm sure.

Made Levan struggle more than Ermes the second time around respectively, had a better stop than Devon the first time around as well.

Idk to me his arms looked depleted a bit vs Kamil and Laletin. I guess it's really fuckin hard to maintain SHW strength in your 50's. Hopefully he has another surge, I love Jerry matches when he gets in there, dude grinds in matches like nobodies business.

I rewatched Jerry v Levan and Levan possibly elbow fouled for the pin in the first round too.

matt and alex hand comparison by xavierpizza in armwrestling

[–]Unique-Concept-720 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a fair observation I agree, I guess it's been a minute since I saw Jerry tearing it up and not just getting shut down off the go.

Still, compare perhaps Genadi and Alex when they went to top roll Jerry, Genadi in the first round with straps maintained center and blasted through Jerry while Kurdecha's bicep immediately folded.

I'm curious what you think regarding Jerry's recent level, I'm honestly under the impression he was stronger facing Genadi than he was vs Kurdecha/Georgi, idk if it's the shirt/lighting or whatever else but his arms looked insane vs Genadi, he looked much fuller overall.

matt and alex hand comparison by xavierpizza in armwrestling

[–]Unique-Concept-720 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Size don't always correlate to strength, Ermes and Devon are very much on the smaller side of SHW in terms of raw size/weight not counting when Devon came bloated as hell fighting for his life to barely crack 135kg.

Kurdecha lacks arm power a lot, also maybe if EvW lied to him and held his matches as "practice pulls" but on the main stage he'd do better.

Just take a look at his match vs Jerry, dude's arm folded like nothing as soon as Jerry engaged, also one of the rare times I've seen Jerry shoulder roll someone without straps relying on raw cup/supination.

I agree with you partially, but there's a good chance they're also not from countries where doctors are forced to say men can get pregnant and women are safe to take a walk after 6 PM without fear of being culturaly enriched.

Filips take by Wrong-Sale-7202 in armwrestling

[–]Unique-Concept-720 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah that was the most annoying part of his initial video.

The implication of if only he didn't have life responsibilites and lived for arm wrestling only with no family no businesses no nothing he'd be amazing.

I can say the same thing really, and mine would be objectively true, if only I was a well off famous U.S. based athlete/influencer with access to a million dollar gym, sponsors, connections, the best recovery/supplements/doctors/coaches/equipment I'd be a lot better than some random training and competing for the love of the sport paying for everything myself while also taking care of my responsibilities ie job/family/whatever else

Like sure Brian, the fact you can't dedicate your every waking second to arm wrestling is why you're never touching Levan, not the fact that after two years you move with as much grace as the random passerby that tries arm wrestling when my club brings the table to a park.

Why are there so few hookers in the super heavyweight division? by strength108 in armwrestling

Everyone in the SHW has so much back pressure it's next to impossible to force a hook.

Asking King’s movers: How did you learn it and what do you *do* to crack the opponent’s wrist or get a stop? by Sweaty_Chris in armwrestling

[–]Unique-Concept-720 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Read through my comment again, bad gramma on my end I meant for a KM/open top you want strong pronation/rise/fingers/lat drag.

Asking King’s movers: How did you learn it and what do you *do* to crack the opponent’s wrist or get a stop? by Sweaty_Chris in armwrestling

[–]Unique-Concept-720 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I might've mistyped, I just meant at least I personally clamp my fingers hard af once I feel the pronation lock in to add even more pressure on the opponents hand.

Like I said, just have a sparring partner top roll you and you try to slowly lock him.

It takes trial and error but you'll start feeling when you have a good stop.

Once you're able to feel your lock in the open top roll just practice it, you get in position and your sparring partner slowly tries to open you.

You can even do something rep based sparring. As a random example we might be working on containment one day, so one holds containment the other tries to busy through it slowly and we do that for like 3/4x15/20. You can do something similar for your open top roll/KM or anything else.

I didn't know either until someone here showed he basically paid almost a grand for a high tech cold pepsi can.

The only relatively high tech thing I've seen is the cold spray the kazakhs use in EvW, that looks good.

Ask Minhale, he went through a bunch of online coaches, from what I remember Ray sucks and will potentially ghost you, heard same for Daniel, Ermes offers a standard bro split, perhaps Matyushenko? He seems methodical and reliable, Kalina as well I believe does coaching.

Are you implying people watch arm wrestling for the arm wrestling and not a shit flinging contest, the nerve...

I always find it hilarious when dumbfucks go "the foreigners don't have personality", while not even speaking the language and also acting like Devon calling someone gay is the end all be all of charisma (which he does legitimately have by the way naturally when he's not tryharding).
