Which is more important to win an Arm Wrestle for example, Biceps or Triceps?
I would like to answer your question in a wider context as I think the two responses so far are incorrect. Arm wrestling is a deceptive sport. It is not strictly a “strength” sport as people often think, because technique and speed are both very important. Anyone who tells you that strength is not central to the arm wrestler’s success is misguided at best. Strength matters to the extent that it allows you to execute various techniques. For instance, you cannot perform a toproll if you do not have the strength to create adequate backpressure. If you believe that having big, strong biceps is the key to your success you are in for a surprise. The three most important areas for the arm wrester to train are (in order of importance): 1) Fingers and Hand 2) Wrist and Forearm 3) Biceps 4) Triceps I won’t tell you how to train biceps or triceps as there are numerous articles but for finger and hand you can use kettleballs and strongman grippers. Wrist and forearm can be done with forearm curls
