yap, it is all angles, leverage, "skill", positioning and forearm strength...... Brute strength plays a big part, but not 100%.

Ive probably lost 3 arms wrestling macthes in my life, I suck at pressing down their arm/hand but Im a master at just locking my arm so the opponent just gives up because there is no way he can press my arm down lol.

but that fucker was strong,it was not all skills
my uncle for example beats me too but he looks like an average guy
i'm probably much stronger in the gym but armwrestling is always another story

The guys who are really good at armwrestling are carpenters, pipe fitters, other skilled tradesmen like that. A lot of them don't look that strong but they build up incredible arm strength through their professions.

Ever armwrestle a blacksmith? You'd probably get destroyed.

i can vouch this. carpenters gets really strong hands/wrists/forearms which makes them very well suited for armwrestling.
