  3. Brachioradialis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brachioradialis

    When pronated, the brachioradialis is more active during elbow flexion since the biceps brachii is in a mechanical disadvantage.

It is effective mainly when those muscles have already ...

    The brachialis muscle is innervated by the musculocutaneous nerve, which runs on its superficial surface, between it and the biceps brachii. [2] However, in 70-80% of people, the muscle has double innervation with the radial nerve (C5-T1). The divide between the two innervations is at the insertion of the deltoid. [3]
