You're absolutly right Will, but since I started armwrestling, I find myself able to do stuff like 1 arm chin-ups, 1 arm push-ups, human flag etc... I would have never been able to do those things if it wasn't for armwrestling training (in my opinion)!

This isnt my best day at them but was a day I had the camera there... youtu.be/HL0qnRK65noI like the partials better than the full range as I do believe that it helps with my hooking strength... |

If the rafter is deep, it will support the wrist allowing you to concentrate on grip and arm/lat components. |
