Armwrestling machine

It is unusual in that it provides tension from two directions like in actual armwrestling – the cable at the back pulls the lever arm back (back tension) whilst the large cam puts lateral tension into the move. The inventor, John Cole, claims that a good armwrestler is good at the machine and a person good at the machine is good at armwrestling.
