He's in Ripley's and clearly stated it's a birth defect. He's never claimed to beef up to such a size. Intriguing, but this article is written from an absurd viewpoint, really. He's… abnormal, not enhanced.

dude your an idiot leave the poor guy alone, his enormous right arm is the results of a birth defect, lifting weight and armwrestling only right handed surely has a little to do with it but mostly it was just a birth defect! His right forearm was twice as big as his left even as a baby.

That's your opinion (about it being more boring than chess). His larger than normal arm do help. More than that, his enormous hand helps. He's a very good armwrestler. Nobody ever claimed he was the best in the world and he's not, just the best in Germany (still a very good accomplishment). His large arm is mostly the result of a birth defect, his bone structure is just huge, that's not going to be a huge benefit in armwrestling. It's a lot more about technique, wrist strength, rotational strength, and tendon strength than it is about genetics.

i find this pretty damn cool, and really smart to be honest, but i wouldn't wanna look like that, even if i was world champion in my weight class(; and also, i dont think he just trained his right arm, guess he also trained his right breast, and all other muscles that you use while arm wrestling, dont think his that dumb

u guys have it wrong… Do u honestly think his arm would be that big if he trained both his arms????? guys do that ALL he time…. the reason his arm is so freakish is because he has obviously focussed on it intensely………….

of course hes not going to work out his other arm, you only need one arm to wrestle… any additional muscle on his other arm would have no benefits other than forcing him into higher weight divisions

and those who are saying that his arm is not ripped are retarded…. arm wrestling requires stamina… what you guys are talking about is definition which is purely aesthetic…

if he really was in it for looks then he wouldnt be where he is now…. good on him for goin at it hard'koh!

Holy crap, when I first saw that pic I thought his arm had some sort of infection that caused swelling…didn't actually know he intentionally built it that way.

I wonder what his training is like…

But I do know that arm wrestling incorporates more than just your 'arm wrestling' arm…you need your body and your other arm to be strong as well. It's almost a total body sport.
