The pull-down is extremely similar to the pull-up, but uses moving external weights or resistance with a fixed body rather than a fixed bar and a moving body. This makes the pull-down an open-chain movement and the pull-up a closed-chain movement. The weight moved can also be adjusted to be more or less than the weight of the person doing the ...
During activities such as overhand baseball pitching, this ligament is subjected to extreme tension, which places the overhand-throwing athlete at risk for injury. [4] Acute or chronic disruption and/or attenuation of the ulnar collateral ligament often result in medial elbow pain, valgus instability, and impaired throwing performance. There ...
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.
The composition of the triangular ligamentous structure on the lateral side of the elbow varies widely between individuals [1] and can be considered either a single ligament, [2] in which case multiple distal attachments are generally mentioned and the annular ligament is described separately, or as several separate ligaments, [1] in which case parts of those ligaments are often described as ...
conjoint tendon of shoulder i.e short head of the biceps and coracobrachialis, acting as a sling on the subscapularis and capsule with the arm abducted and externally rotated; increasing or restoring the glenoid bone; and; repair of the capsule to the stump of coracoacromial ligament. [2]
The lat pulldown is a key exercise to grow your back muscles. If you don't have a machine, these 4 lat pulldown alternatives will bring you similar results.
The injury is often associated with an experience of a sharp “pop” in the elbow, followed by pain during a single throw. [2] In addition, swelling and bruising of the elbow, loss of elbow range of motion, and a sudden decrease in throwing velocity are all common symptoms of a UCL injury. If the injury is less severe, pain can alleviate with ...
Tendon rupture. Tendon rupture is a condition in which a tendon separates in whole or in part from tissue to which it is attached, or is itself torn or otherwise divided in whole or in part. [1] [2] Examples include: Achilles tendon rupture; Biceps tendon rupture; Anterior cruciate ligament injury; Biceps femoris tendon rupture and Quadriceps ...
