The October Muscle of the Month is the biceps muscle! Throughout this month, we will be giving you exercises and stretches to work this muscle in your arm. But first, learn a little bit about this muscle and how it functions in your body!
  • 2 headed muscle the lies between the elbow and the shoulder and helps control the motion of two different joints
  • Main function of the biceps is to flex the forearm at the elbow and supinates the forearm (turns palm upwards)
    • Think of opening a bottle with a corkscrew- all of these movements utilize the forearm
