Andrew's skill: ARM WRESTLING

Darren: "He has naturally strong arms."
Norm: "So, you NEVER had to work out?!"
Andrew: "I can beat girls with two fingers."

(these quotes were neither in order nor occured at the same time)


Technique #1: (while standing) put one leg under the table. Use the leg on the same side you're wrestling with,

ie. wrestling with your right arm, put right leg under table.

Technique #2: Wrap hand around the opponent's thumb.


Technique #3: Tilt the wrist TOWARDs your opponent's hand, in other words, anteriorly. Or keep it straight. It's harder to push if your hand is bent backwards.
(sorry for using the same picture, the wrist was clearer)


Technique #4: Pull your arm towards YOURSELF. (without moving elbow, of course) Kinda like curling your arm. It will be harder for the opponent to fight back when their arm is more extended.

Technique #5: (also called the cheat technique) grab hold of something. the end of the table, preferrably. although, this does not work for everyone.


Technique #6: Use your upper body to push! It should move along with your arm (if you're moving forward....?)

Confidence booster: feel your own biceps as it's flexed. maybe you'll get a surge of confidence. maybe.


And thus, perhaps with much workout and 50 pushups per day, you can ...

Done and DONE. This is Taylor after she conquered all of Alias in arm wrestling. Now onto the other small groups...

Oh right. Andrew also taught us to blog. xD


Now you know the secrets of Andrew's arm wrestling victories....
