This confirms exactly what I've been thinking for a long time now. Strength progression in AW specific lifts is more important than getting in "table time"

Chris, thank you so much for making these tutorials. I've learned so much from you. I wish I knew people near me who arm wrestle. I can't find anyone with a table and I'm too poor right now to buy one but I need to get back into shape anyway. I'm 6'3 and 130 lbs. I made it to 180 from 119 in 8 months about a year ago then lost everything. Depression is a b.

Awesome content as always. My 2 cents on table time, in general I'm doing practice every other week for 3-4 hours. My technique drills are the warm up with progressive loading until we're going full bore. However take 15 to 20 minutes between hard pulls. I figure thats more realistic for tournaments. YMMV

I have to seriously take to heart your recommendation on less table time. I'm currently practicing every other week, but it takes me nearly a full week to recover. Due to this I'm not able to workout nearly as much/as hard as I'd like.

Do you armwrestle with a lot of pushing and inside movements? I'm more of an outside puller and in practice I rarely put my frame on the line and that's one of the reasons I feel I don't get totally wrecked versus some of the other guys I practice with.

My first two months I was absolutely WRECKED after practice, I was going weekly, alot of times still sore from the prior practice. I couldn't even think about lifting heavy. What helped me the most with the pain was very light weight (10-15#'s) and between 35-50 reps. I do three exercises Pronation, cupping and supination in a superset. Then separately, preacher curls, again low weight 35+ reps full ROM. Gives me a super good pump AND relief from the pain. And I'd do that directly after practice, same day and then again a few days later if need be. I'm about 6 months into this now practice is every other week on average and just now feeling like lifting heavy.

Whats your take on weekly hand and wrist volume? 20 sets being the upper end? Great video but your bench press analogy is flawed for raw lifting. I was a national record raw bencher. The raw bench is all about low end chest power to carry the momentum to lockout. If your talking geared benching then it makes sense.

How does your “ideology” with table time reason with the table time specific schools like Bulgaria etc?
@ChrisDrummondAW
Жыл бұрын
I think the Bulgarians who follow that philosophy would be even better than they are if they trained less on the table and had different strength programming. The Bulgarian method (in all sports that follow it) is notorious for weeding out people who can’t handle intense daily training, which is the majority of athletes. There’s no evidence that it produces better athletes in general than other schools of thought (the best are all similarish) but it definitely narrows the field of who can reach that level.

@@ChrisDrummondAW Definitely agree on that as it pertains to Bulgaria which as you say has a long history of just killing 95% of athletes but then finding the freaks who can survive and get great. But the Kazakhs at Shardara do almost daily table time aswell even though they do post workout table time

@@WilliamAstromAW Intensity is the key. If you're just doing technical drilling most of the time and only do a couple hard pulls you can do that indefinitely. But if you're smashing arms every day you'll constantly be at 70%.

@@ChrisDrummondAW Agree, feel like in the videos you portray it a bit more black and white than that and that table time is more harming but it may just be my subjective perception from viewing. Wholeheartedly agree that probably 95% of people pull too hard and or too much at the table.

@@ChrisDrummondAW One question I have is, does constantly being at 70% have to be a bad thing if you're someone who tapers when approaching a match or tournament? Yeah, maybe you could be fresher at the practices you do go to, but that's almost like showing up an hour late just so everyone is beat up before you get there. For me, a certain amount of weakness in places on the table specific to my lifts just tells me I'm working the right things so that when I do taper down my arms will be rejuvenated in the right places.
