Creating Athlete page: If you are have any type of cool aspirations towards armwrestling, social media pages are a must, but the one you must create early on is a Facebook Athlete page I don’t care where you are in the sport now, novice, amateur or active pro. Make that page for people to follow, share your progress and upcoming events to your best ability. Depending on how seriously you taking everything, the likes and following will slowly grow. It’s not necessarily about possible monetization, which is currently a big thing on social media, but creating a following, creating different audiences. There are about hundreds of reasons you want to do it but I want to highlight two important ones: -armwrestling world changes and reshapes every few years, formats gets adjusted, leagues getting changed, and last thing you want to be is become dependent on certain leagues existence. Create your own audience, your own following that you can always interact with and share your own things. - that audience is valuable, the numbers you building up in your average views, following, engagement, etc. With current shape of armwrestling world, of most bigger events being PPVs, the more amount of PPVs you can sell, the more organic reach you can create, the more valuable you are to ANY event you can be or will be a part of.(*) *as of writing this now at the end of 2025 I’d like to note, and maybe against most people’s beliefs, but currently talent beats views, unless you are pulling absolute insane numbers, majority of armwrestling cards are 80-100% are full committed armwrestlers, with normal social media presence, however occasional huge stars do get faster opportunity at EVW and etc..I believe with more years to come, amount of armwrestlers will grow, and promoters will start noticing more of a difference in sales and who they need for an event talentwise+ ability and willingness to promote.

PUT A TABLE WITH PULLEY ATTACHMENT IN YOUR HOUSE NOW You must have a table in your vicinity if you want to progress faster. if you can attach a pulley to it sideways, even better. As armwrestlers our playing field is that table, we are training to perform on it, so the more time you can spend on it the better. You can love gym all you want, I do very much, the table work is non negotiable for progress. I recently went and got the bolts to put pulley from Arm Assassin onto my table, so I can have it in my living room and make little movements impossible to skip. And the amount of armwrestling in this House increased by 1000%. Guests pulling, roommates kid challenging me or his dad daily, I get to workout and pull; all while I put this thing here just for myself and my training only.

Switching it up on Roby

Subject of getting better at about anything in life, involves consistency, armwrestling is no different, however this is where it gets dangerous for the most talented kids(often referred to as “young/new brzenks” I’ve been armwrestling for well over 10 years, and people don’t mention how DRASTICALLY your local competition change/gets replaced. People, team, promoters, etc, everyone you see now, if you stick with it, only 10-20% will be here in 10 years and their roles also changes so much, people lose or gain passion, find themselves in roles of fans, promoters, refs, etc. The moral here is, stay in your lane, compare yourself to only yourself only, majority won’t even stick long enough. Now about extremely talented youth. I can’t count how many times Ive traveled and I’ve met new upcoming phenoms, I’ve met one at least once or twice a year, about every year, I’ve even armwrestling for 12. I’ve roughly met 12-24 new John brzenks. I can confidently say 100% of them by now, didn’t fulfill their friends,family and practice mates dreams. All of them are talked about as “he/she has/had all the potential, just need to put in work” They don’t. Hard work beats talent when talent fails to work.

Stop giving up, stop crying, stop depending on leagues
