ARM WRESTLING

Arm Wrestling training plans, built for your goal

Arm wrestling matches are won on wrist and forearm-specific strength and leverage technique like hooking or top-rolling, not general grip or bicep training, and pronation/supination strength barely gets touched by a normal gym program. SportBlox builds your arm wrestling training plan around your goal, current level and preferred style.

Personalisation

How SportBlox personalises it

Your goal & event date

Sessions build toward the specific goal and date you set, with a taper if you're racing or competing.

Your skill level

Volume and intensity scale to where you actually are, from Inexperienced to Professional.

Your stated weaknesses

Tell SportBlox about things like hook strength at the wrist, top-roll pressure and control, elbow and tendon durability under load and the plan weights sessions toward fixing them.

Your schedule

The plan fits the days and time you say you have — not an idealised training week.

For coaches

Coaching an arm wrestling team?

SportBlox builds your team's training plan around the squad as a whole — its goals, weaknesses and upcoming events — and you review and refine every session before your athletes see it.

FAQ

Arm Wrestling training plan FAQ

How many sessions per week does the plan include?

Usually 5 sessions covering wrist/forearm strength, table technique and match sparring, with a rest day.

Do I need an arm wrestling table to train?

Table sparring assumes access to a table and partner; strength and grip sessions can be done in a normal gym without one.

Is this suitable for someone new to arm wrestling?

Yes — set skill level to Inexperienced and the plan builds wrist and forearm strength before introducing table-specific technique.

Will it fit around my existing gym training?

Tell SportBlox what you already lift and it layers arm-wrestling-specific work around it rather than duplicating your sessions.

Does it help prevent elbow and tendon injuries?

Sessions build tendon resilience through progressive loading, but flag any existing elbow or wrist issue so table sparring intensity stays conservative.
