Your new competitive edge
If you do any sport involving a lot of wrist strength, like armwrestling, MMA, BJJ, etc. then having strong wrist rotation strength will be of huge advantage to you. I don't think we need to explain anymore how important pronation is to armwrestlers (very important), but even for fighting sports like BJJ, MMA, and wrestling this is a very underrated aspect.
If you want to grab a hold of your opponent and pull him towards one side, a lot of strength needs to come from you wrist. If your wrists are much stronger than your opponents, you will have a great competitive edge here!
How & why it works
Some people are still not sure how Popeye's Pronator is different from something like a dumbbell, because it requires some understanding of exercise science. You see, with a regular dumbell/barbbell the resistance is only going one way: straight down. Both sides of the dumbbell are the same weight, so there's no resistance on the rotational muscles of the wrist.
With Popeye's Pronator, because the chain wraps around the circle, it actively tries to pull your wrist to one side. You are now able to use this resistance to train the rotational muscles in your wrist. You can chose to train the pronation (turning the thumb-side inwards) or supination (turning the pinky-side inwards) of your wrist.
Pro tip: if you want to take the biceps out of the movement and fully isolate the pronation or supination muscles. you can stabilize your forearm on something sturdy while doing the exercise. Now all the resistance is put onto your wrist, feel the burn!
How popeye´s pronator will help you
Grow your arms!
Want big arms? Let's add some meat to those forearms! Most people NEVER train their wrist rotation, which means that they leave easy gains on the table. Evening adding in 3 sets a week will make your arms enter a new phase of newbie gains.
'Bulletproof' your hands, wrists and elbows
Most people get tendonitis or other types of pain due to a weak link around a joint. By training our wrists and hands in all of its function we´re making our hands, wrists, and elbows ´bulletproof´ against injury.
Get better at your sport
Having strong wrists through all of it's ranges of motion can be of huge advantage in many sports, including armwrestling, strongman, MMA, wrestling, etc. Especially because few people train it, this can become a new competitive edge over your competitors.
Never lose an armwrestling match again
If you're already doing armwrestling as a sport, we don't need to explain to you that pronation is VERY IMPORTANT. If you only do armwrestling with your friends at the bar, this may be good info for you.
In armwrestling, one of the main goals is to control the hand of the opponent. By being able to pronate your hand (as if you want to look on your watch), you will open up the hand op your opponent and get into a stronger position. Basically, if you have much stronger pronation muscles than your opponent it's almost a done deal already.
Just a few sets with Popeye's Pronator at the end of your workout can already make a big impact. Your friends won't understand how you suddenly got so strong, but you'll know the secret ;).
the secret to ´bulletproof´ elbows
It seems like there is an epidemic of elbow tendonitis, tennis elbow and golfers elbow these days. Many times, the reason is simple: there are muscular weaknesses and imbalances around the elbow joint that cause unnecessary friction on the tendons, resulting in pain.
If we look at the case of the forearm muscles, we see that they are 6 main functions: flexion, extension, pronation, supination, radial deviation and ulnar deviation. Wrist flexion is common, wrist extension is already quite rare. However, most people NEVER train the other 4 functions.
This usually results in some form of imbalance and lack of mobility. Instead, we want to get a joint to be strong in every angle and through every range of
motion.
