bobbrown Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 What do yo mean by "down"? Were you on a bar or regular table and were you trying to get them FLAT to the table top? And were you keeping your body straight up and down? If so, the last few inches can be near impossible. Its turns into, locking bicep against pushing tricep. The Bicep is much stronger.

Yersinia Posted March 16, 2008 Author Share Posted March 16, 2008 i cant get their hand past the starting position was a regular table. i was sitting and my opponents where standing. so i couldnt lean cause their was some guys sitting next to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbrown Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 There is a tremendous more leverage advantage when standing versus sitting. Plus AW is a static sport were you lock your upper body and lean to the left. If someone was sitting there you were at a big disadvantage. Try the same guy while both standing and room to move. I bet you do much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
