Total Pro Sports - Okay, I promise not to make thejoke about how this man's arm got this way. Let's just say the joke has something to do with why thathigh school basketball coach in Idaho is in all that trouble.

The man pictured here is 22 year old German arm wrestling champ Matthias Schlitte. Most people shy away from arm wrestling, especiallyknowing someone canhave their arm snapped in 2 (or 3 or 4). If you have an arm like this kid though, I guess there's no need to worry.

This man claims he has been training for 6 years to grow the massive trunk you see on his right arm. I guess you could saythis guy is a modern-day Popeye, although at least Popeye was symmetrical. Schlitte's right forearm measures 18 inches around. 18 inches! The man youwould think would be embarrassed to be associated with Popeye (I mean its not exactly a flattering comparison) was just that, stating emphatically:
Many people's first association with arm wrestling is a beer-soaked bar-table and drunken sailors - which is completely wrong.


While its fun to gawk and mock him, what Schlitte has done is actually quite ingenious. If you think about it, by only increasing the size of his oneforearm and no other part of his body, he has allowed himself to arm wrestle in lower weight classes, even though his arm is as strong or stronger than muchbigger men than him. Like Schlitte himself said, the older and more experienced fighters smiled at him for being so light-weight, but they weren't smilinganymore after he won. Sylvester Stallone didn't have to game the system in Over The Top, but you gotta do what you gotta do.







training for 6 years, right. i'vetrained since i was 12 or 13 and never achieved that kind of mass. my man must put ankle weights around his wrist when he goes to town on himself.

Attempting to be funny by taking a joke waaay too seriously, FTL.
 
dude is an idiot for doing that to himself. I dont care what anyone says, doing that just for arm wrestling? eff outta here
 
What? I've always heard that is impossible. Like tennis players always try to just train their racquet swinging arm but they never get noticeably bigger.Also how the hell is that possible. You eat a lot to get big but you only gain weight in one specific part of your body? I'm calling ducktales.
