It's very weird to see that you have near elite level in this lift(60kg compared to Devon 70-75kg) while your arm is half the size of Devon. Impressive, but weird.
Haha, that’s cool to know. Though imo, these numbers are somewhat arbitrary. Some lifts translate better for certain people compared to other lifts. These are just the ones I’ve found that correlates to my success on the table best. Your yardstick lifts may be slightly different.
@@EastsideArmWrestling we both pull the same way, so the movements you performing, I also perform. I do lots of other pronation variations and arm strengthening movements.
you really need to start doing the lifts properly, even you have to be aware that a lift of 30kg riser in that manner and 60 kg pronation somewhat dont compare, the first time i hit 55 kg pronation my locked riser over the knuckle was 38kg and it was somewhat of a weak point My guess is that when you dont dump your riser and if you do the pronation lift properly the numbers will be 26 kg riser and 42kg-44kg pronation, these are number you can actually compare to other people
Compare to what? Why am I comparing to other people? I said in the video that this is for me to compare with myself in the future. The only comparison I need to make with other people is when I’m on the competition table.
@@EastsideArmWrestling when you step up to the table you have competitors,its not a bad idea to compare to them not only when you grip up but also your progress on important lifts, that is how you know hot to work on your strength and weaknesses, my point was not to bash you. my point was to make you realize the training estimates you are comparing yourself to (does not matter if they are only to yourself) are not accurate when you are not targeting the appropriate muscle/chain correctly, in short term do no think your strengths are all that good and your weak points are whats holding you back until you actually test urself
@@pepiusporedkata dude, I’ve been armwrestling for almost 14 years now. Just last year I competed 12 times across 5 different countries.

Yet you’ve done nothing to justify your claims. I have and do take advice from people in the comments before. But that’s only when they’ve explained themselves and actually made sense.
It doesn’t matter, this isn’t me going for a powerlifting meet. It’s for me tracking my own progress. As long as form remains consistent from lift to lift, there’s no difference.
@@KevinLuWX it was consistent between lifts within a reasonable room of error. There isn’t 100% perfect consistency especially near maximal exertion. Even Devon doesn’t do it with “perfect” form. I’ve been using these lifts to track my own progress for years now to a fairly high amount of accuracy in terms of correlation of the numbers to how well I do at competition. But who knows, maybe a champion like you has more experience and knows better 🤷♂️
@@EastsideArmWrestling Your warmup lift was 18 degrees above parallel while your max attempt was 30 degrees. That’s a 9% difference in the proportion of true load, which is a huge margin at your level. If you do the lift near parallel at default, you can deviate 10-15 degrees and the difference is only 2-3% due to the mathematical nature of the unit circle. The back pressure lift you were doing on cable in previous years are great. Why not do pronation and riser the same way?
@@KevinLuWX I do still train that lift on occasion, I just chose these to peg my progress against just because I found them to be more indicative of my level of preparedness pre-competition. In my actual training, I do do other lifts and variations. Both with free weights and with cables.
I understand where you are coming from bro, but as I mentioned in other replies, this is not a challenge video for me or anything. I’m just doing my own exercises for me to track my own progress. It is like trying to compare half bicep curl with full range bicep curl standards.
The increase u did for the fingers was too much .. based on the 30kg u did, u should have increased 2.5 kg only and see .. anyway .. you are like me but with much better pronation😂
This wasn't a peaking phase for me, it's just been 1 of several standard strength mesocycles that I plan to run for the next few months. I only run a peak for serious competitions as peaks don't really promote growth so I don't do them too often.
What made you think this was a peak? Deloading and hitting 1 rep maxes are not exclusive to peaking. Peaking is just a concept; when you put your body through intense volume, and then transition into a high intensity phase where you incrementally taper volume lower and intensity higher to a point and then taper intensity lower and volume pretty much is non existant as you transition to a deload. Finally your body mends throughout this process and peaks very high, if done right, you are at your strongest ever, as soon as your done though, you crash and come down. Which is why it's called a peak.
I’ll be tracking these lifts from now on. My numbers are around 20% lower than yours at 70kg BW. I did this lifts for higher rep for about 2-3 months to get my body accustomed. Any tips on getting good progress for this or maybe a video? Ofcourse I also do supplementary, full body training as well as good recovery/diet.
Great job! Good luck on your subsequent strength building phases :). Also, don't you just love the comments about your "form is off, you are 5.674568° degrees off PaRAlLeL". Didn't realize you were about to hit a pronation powerlifting meet 😂. Armwrestling is about positioning, you position your lifts where you feel it most benefits you on the table, and as long as you can consistently track that progress through a consistent metric, you are reaping the rewards you need. Lol
Thank you Bililz, reading your comment gives me much hope for the community. I’m so glad you know how to discern the importance of form - knowing the reason behind doing a certain lift. I feel like the form police going around have somewhat of a good intent (giving the benefit of the doubt that they’re not just trolling or jealous). However, this over-harping on form shows quite an inexperienced understanding of training and programming in general. Like you said: as long as you can consistently track it somehow, then for that reason, it’s all good.
Bro those pronation lifts are insane. Great inspiration for everyone! I've been training for almost two years now with my club, i'ts called Sparta, from brazil, we're like best 2nd or 3rd in the country, just behind Bortolato's team. My strenghts are also the pronation/riser for toproll but i never forget to work on Hook strenghts as well. A lot of guys here don't realise that we need coordenation and sinergy in all areas, not just what we do the most, basically focus on the weakpoints while keep pushing the strenght foward for the best results on the table. Keep training smart, the comunity need this kind of content! Thanks my friend 💪
Bro what you are saying is exactly right 100% Even for toproller, we must train hook movements and strengths, same for hook puller, can’t forget backpressure/pronation. Must be a complete armwrestler! Keep it up bro, hope to see you guys one day 👊
@@EastsideArmWrestling Thanks for the kind words bro. I really wanna be a high level athlete one day and for this i have to be complete, smart armwrestling haha. Hope to meet you one day for sure! Always climbing ☝
What kind of pressure are you using on that last lift? I've always done finger/wrist lifts like that with lat/drag but it looks like you're going more forward with tricep/press. If it works, it works. Just looks weird to me.
That’s a great question man! For me I’m applying a similar type of pressure as I would when trying to force containment on an actual opponent. So instead of just pulling straight back with my lats, I am coming forward a little and leading with my fingers clamping.
"This is a fundamental missunterstanding of the pronation lift" - therein lies the fundamental misunderstanding - that there is ONE pronation lift. The deviation from horizontal is almost arbitrary within a large range of motion. I could go significantly more vertical OR even into a negative horizontal, it wouldn't matter. As long as the lift being tracked is kept consistent across time, if the numbers go up, strength is increasing.
@@EastsideArmWrestling No, as you can see from yourself. Your forearm angle increases as your weight increases. Only the horizontal forearm position can be maintained approximately uniformly because it is the easiest to check. Nonetheless, strong performance!

@@Golabekrafts I wouldn´t disregard other stuff.

Epic pronation number bro! Massive. Just Fyi my numbers at 80kg BW are pronation 42kg, riser 40kg and finger containment on similar but not the same handle 36kg.

Your 30 degree forearm angle on the pronation lift is probably allowing 30% more weight. Although consistency is what matters more. On your containment lift, notice that the cable attachment on your handle doesnt line up with middle knuckle, making it pull harder on your bottom fingers. I'm guessing it may feel more balanced if you went up a hole on the handle.
Yup, the point is consistency-doing it the same way now as 6 months later. I haven’t tried toggling the holes on the containment lift before, but instead when I did train it, I’d do sets focusing on the bottom fingers and flip it around to focus on the top fingers. I’ll try your tip and test the other holes, but I don’t think I’ll really use those for training.
Dude your forearm is supposed to be parallel with the floor
It doesn't really matter as long as from lift to lift I'm being consistent. The point is for me to track my own progress.
