And bicep curls, because right after you turn his wrist, you want to pull his arm toward you with your bicep. Now, he has no leverage, and even if he's bigger than you, if you get him here, you can usually wait him out for the win. Thats my very unprofessional experience. My puny ass shamed many a jock, and I married one of the witnesses.

HTH
Bravo.

From my limited experience with arm wrestling I have noticed that leverage is the key to winning. So definitely work on your technique for creating leverage first...and get stronger everywhere else second.

A quick Google search might bring up the helpful shit.

Google FTW.
