  • Welcome to Part 2 of an amazing episode of In Search of Excellence, featuring Devon Larratt, a Canadian professional arm wrestler who has won multiple world championships and is one of the best arm wrestlers of all time. He is also a former member of the Canadian Armed Forces.
    In today’s episode, we talk about the things crucial for success, the importance of preparation, and the ability to accept defeat. You’ll hear about his most important wins and losses, the famous arm wrestlers he fought against, and so much more.
    Time stamps:
    01:05 The importance of Extreme Preparation
    Things important for success
    Considered the no. 1 arm wrestler in the world at 33
    As you age you start losing physical energy
    For the last four years, only trains his right hand
    A lot of sacrifices is needed to become Number 1
    You must be obsessed
    05:19 How does Devon prepare for a match?
    Devon’s training falls into 3 categories
    The most important is actual practice on the table
    Breaking new grounds and pushing forward
    Muscle, tissue, and training rehab
    Staying current
    09:07 How important is a passion for success?
    Passion is probably the most important thing
    When you love something, you will be extremely motivated
    Motivation will never be a problem
    You have to know yourself
    11:38 How to bounce back from a huge loss?
    Lost 6:0 from Denis Cyplenkov
    Denis is an incredible human being
    Learned a lot from Dennis
    Was defeated by an incredible arm wrestler
    It’s great to have people to keep you humble and inspired
    Denis is an inspirational athlete and fighter
    Is there a fear of losing?
    There are far more serious things than a match
    Loves to fight and wants to have a good time
    Cherishes his loses
    Losses make you stronger
    17:18 Is wrestling like poker?
    In poker, you have your cards
    Maybe not much like poker (random)
    Arm wrestling is about self-betterment and growth of self
    No Limits - a nick name given to Devon
    Endurance has been his gift, never fallen short of it

    Great episode! I love Devon's saying: Keep things simple. He does three simple things, which include training his right arm, breaking new ground in strength and power, and doing rehab to heal himself. I also love that Devon saw Dennis as an inspiration. He does not seek a loss, but he still cherishes them because he learns more when he loses; losses will make one stronger for those who have a pure love of the sport.

    Very hard to believe "extreme preparation of 80hours" when you didn't even search how to correctly pronounce the names of the two most admired and respected arm wrestlers
