I usually think its most of your shoulder and tricep.. you probably should focus on everything rather than maybe just your arms to win at arm wrestling.. here is an old article (from last year i think?) by maxim on it... http://www.maximonline.com/stupid_fun/articles/article_4214.html Also there are some different workouts to build up your arms rather than what ft gives.. but this is more of strength then the look http://www.sover.net/~timw/arms.htm Hope it helps....

His training consisted mostly of heavy forearm training, with support work for the delts, lats, and biceps. Training for a strong grip will always help as well. -------------- Michael "Trample the weak; hurdle the dead!"
