before i start, know that I DO train everything, including legs, but this is just a question i couldn't put my finger on
what muscles are involved in rotating the shoulder in an arm-wrestling movement?
the forearm keeps the wrist from buckling, bicep acts as a stabilizer in kind of pulling the opponents arm toward you, thus weakening them, but i can't pinpoint what exactly makes the arm rotate the way it does
reason for asking: people know I lift weights, but I don't look like I pull 305 (not much, but you get what i'm getting at), so they challenge me to a strength contest, they dont ask for a lift off, but for arm wrestling, so I was wondering how I could make that stronger (note: I do all compound lifts, train every major muscle group, but there's no harm in making your arm stronger)

if i was in your position, i wouldnt arm wrestling. Im coming off a 1 month injury from arm wrestling because i ripped a tendon in my left bicep. its a pain in the ass and i had to stop doing upperbody workouts for that period of time. a victory over someone weaker may be exciting for you, but it isnt worth it in the long run
