How do you get good at arm wrestling?

[Island Son]

bend your wrist forward so that your hand is on top of his, pull your hand in towards your shoulder (so he has to extend and loses leverage), push your shoulder forward and pull his arm into you and down. Wrist strength is very important

When I was younger in around Middle School I sucked at arm wrestling and then i started worked out and my strength sky rocketed and beat every kid in High School. Arm workouts obviously are very effective but then you got other things like having a good grip.

I am a professional arm wrestler currently training for a modest comeback of sorts after a gap of about 6 years. In arm wrestling I can assure you that the importance reduces the further away you move from the point of contact. In other words, hand strength is the most vital strength in arm wrestling. I am talking about finger strength. Another crucial element of this, is the size of the hand. Improving palm girth and strength using grippers and thumb training, is highly advantageous in arm wrestling. Next up is wrist strength- the ability to curl the wrist with force. But this strength translates to muscular strength in the forearm extensors and rotators. But what most people do not know is that there is a very particular muscle on the inside lateral portion on the forearm near the elbow joint called the wrist rotator. It is this muscle that helps the wrist rotate clockwise. This muscle is very critical to arm wrestling. There are few exercises that help in training it.
The biceps and triceps are important but less than the muscles of the forearm. After these come the major muscle groups that provide the power for most armwrestling drives..The pectorals especially the outer pecs, the entire deltoid muscles, the trapezius and the lats are very important in armwrestling.
