93. THE BIGGEST ARM WRESTLING EVENT EVER FT. DEVON LARRATT
Friday, 6 March, 2026

In this virtual episode of the Brian Shaw Podcast, Brian sits down with arm wrestling legend Devon Larratt to talk about two huge upcoming matches and what it takes to prepare at the highest level. Brian is getting ready to travel to Germany to face Leonidas on his home turf, while Devon is focused on a right hand battle against one of the most dangerous athletes in the sport, Vitaly Laletin.Brian shares a big realization from his training over the past couple of years. For a long time he was unknowingly limiting his own power with rigid cues, but once he started focusing on connecting everything from his hand through his shoulder and into his core, it completely changed how his strength carries over to the arm wrestling table. Instead of chasing bigger numbers in the gym, the focus now is on movements and angles that actually translate to competition.Devon also breaks down the challenge of facing Vitaly and why the matchup is so difficult. Vitaly’s top roll and explosive shoulder commitment make him a very unique problem. Devon explains how important it is to control the wrist early, survive that initial hit, and then make adjustments as the match develops. With six weeks of focused preparation, the goal is to show up healthy, sharp, and ready.If you have questions for Brian, topics you would like to hear Brian talk about or guests you would like to see on the podcast email them to: askbrian@shawstrength.comPodcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/shawstrengthpodcast/Brian's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/shawstrength/Clothes, Supplements, and Supportive Gear: https://shawstrength.com/Behind the scenes content and Giveaways: https://club.shawstrength.com/Main Channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/SHAWSTRENGTH
