Armwrestler TEARS his BICEP attempting King's move?

My armwrestling opinion to prevent a torn bicep is that staying ABOVE the table in a losing position could have prevented this injury in this circumstance. What are your thoughts?

Straining with the arm extended is a one-way trip to SNAP City.

your right, he talks about that in an interview saying he dont do any table practice because of his fucked up elbow. hes sura a monster but I prefer his older style.

On the flip side, Todd Hutchings just had the same injury and he was in nowhere near the same position. He got stretched out some, but not even close to flattened. Also, he's been there a hundred times before. It just happens.

Times done no favours to stretch armstrong

yes i do agree, and i dont see a meaning of getting below the table when you are in that position, because the angle will only make it harder if not impossible to win.

[Doomguy_slayer]

His tendons must have not been conditioned enough.

[BearedHandholder]

just lose in that position.. people should know there limits.

and it must be extreme pressure on your arm when you are pulling it towards yourself in that angle, and the other guy is going the other way, and was in this case stronger.

What are the remedies for this horrible thing that could happen to you, leave it and what time it will come back or a bunch of Physio or surgery

[Azorian]

Very predictable. Bottom line, your bicep tendon is more vulnerable while your arm is stretched out than at any other angle.

i wouldnt say michael todd is in the exact same position and angle, and i believe michael has got much better physics and experience, michael has been pulling like he does for a long time, but i have read somewhere that michael only work out at a gym and not at a armwrestling table because it hurts, ( i don't know is this is true, right me if im wrong ^^ ) and that could be a reason why. And michael is'nt monster for nothing right? ;)

[TechnicalBarbarity]
