lifesnotfair Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Well I hope you're well for the most part of the year!! Would be cool if you (or your son) starts uploading some feats of strength from you again. An Inch clean and jerk would be nice, hehehe.

ChrisJames Posted February 4, 2011 Author Share Posted February 4, 2011 Thanks Arturo and Terry, I've set myself some goals for the year , just something to keep focussed on. I love reading about the pro arm wrestlers and their amazing hand and arm strength. So, im going to try and emulate some of their feats with weights.(obviously not in arm wrestling, they would tear my arms off !!). One of my favorites being Voevoda (what an athlete!!) and the best armwrestler (in my opinion)John Brzenk. Voevodas best one arm row is 180kg (about 400lb !!) and one arm table top curl with 115kg (about 255lbs!) , so i'm going to try and get somewhere near that this year. I did try a cheat curl with 145kg the other day with a 2" barbell , managed to get it up , with emphasis on the cheat !! My son videoed it so i'll ask him to put it on youtube with some other stuff.

handgripperman Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 I was always curious. How big are your hands? and would you ever consider competing in the mighty mitts or vise grip viking challenge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisJames Posted February 5, 2011 Author Share Posted February 5, 2011 Hi Handgripperman, My hands are about 7 and 3/4 inches. I would love to compete, but theres no way i could afford it at the moment. But i wish all the guys from the gripboard all the best and hope they come home with the trophies.
