Enter the Sport of Arm Wrestling into the Olympic games

The Issue

Arm Wrestling is a sport that deserves to be in the Olympics. Athletes in this sport pour out everything they have; mind body and soul,  blood sweat and tears. The passion for this sport drives them to discipline them selves with all of their aspirations. It is also a loved spectators sport that has recently made it as  a TV show. People love to watch the fight between two pullers. It can be likened to a chess match with all of the technique  and mental capacity put into it. you have to know what your opponent is going to do and know exactly what you are going to do to defeat them, most of the time it’s a decision you make in a split second.  You have to be three steps ahead of them.  It takes everything you’ve got mentally and physically. Arm Wrestling is a full body physical sport that you must train for strenuously! It takes cutting weight or even putting it on and  several months of training and prepping for a tournament. Pullers come from around the world to compete against each other.   You must have stamina, physical discipline and utter dedication which is strived for by every puller putting hours a day into their training. The Sport has become highly organized over the years with over 125 countries competing in the world championships yearly and the world arm wrestling federation has began performing drug testing for steroids at the world championships.  Millions of people from around the world will be signing this petition to enter Arm Wrestling into the Olympics. http://waf-armwrestling.com/
