    Perform the bicep curl, but with one arm at a time instead of curling both weights up together. Curl the right arm up first, then lower it down. Then curl the left arm up and lower it down.

  3. Biceps tendon rupture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biceps_tendon_rupture

    The biceps brachii primarily serves to supinate the forearm at the elbow joint. [1] The muscle belly is composed of two heads. The short head is more medial and highlighted in green. The long head is more lateral and highlighted in red. A biceps tendon rupture or bicep tear is a complete or partial rupture of a tendon of the biceps brachii muscle.

  4. Bicep curl - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicep_curl

    Some may argue that the tension on muscle is most significant during the mid-range, practice bicep curl with a half range of motion to let muscle generate the most force. [4] The research found that the preacher curl targets the long head of the biceps significantly only when the arm was almost fully extended, and the range of motion was short.

  5. SLAP tear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SLAP_tear

    A SLAP tear or SLAP lesion is an injury to the superior glenoid labrum (fibrocartilaginous rim attached around the margin of the glenoid cavity in the shoulder blade) that initiates in the back of the labrum and stretches toward the front into the attachment point of the long head of the biceps tendon.

  6. Biceps - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biceps

    The biceps or biceps brachii (Latin: musculus biceps brachii, "two-headed muscle of the arm") is a large muscle that lies on the front of the upper arm between the shoulder and the elbow. Both heads of the muscle arise on the scapula and join to form a single muscle belly which is attached to the upper forearm.

  7. Muscle imbalance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muscle_imbalance

    Classic symptoms of muscle imbalances are usually pain associated with the affected joint. [1] Symptoms can vary depending on what stage their muscular imbalance is, functional or pathological, but commonly exhibit small tissue damage or lesions accompanied by a change in muscle movement patterns. [1]

  8. Rounded shoulder posture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rounded_shoulder_posture

    For instance, if an individual spends a long period of time in sitting positions without stretching, the chest and front arm muscles shorten and tighten, whereas the upper back and neck muscles weaken and lengthen. [14] Due to this asymmetry, the shoulders may roll forward and the upper back may be rounded.

  9. 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. With the insertion of the muscle so far from the fulcrum of the elbow, the brachioradialis does not generate as much joint torque as the brachialis or the biceps. It is effective mainly when those muscles have already ...
