 | | The biceps brachii, brachialis and brachioradialis are the major flexor muscles for the elbow joint. |  | | Scott's infamous biceps are responsible for the renaming of the biceps exercise, from preacher curls to Scott curls. |  | | Trainers know the biceps muscles are responsible for the movement of the arm at the elbow joint, but it is also important to remember the supination factor. |

| | The Physician and Sportsmedicine: Proximal Biceps Tendon Rupture |
 | | The conditions that are most frequently associated with--and probably contribute to--ruptures of the long head of the biceps are rotator cuff pathology, spurs of the bicipital groove, and shoulder instability (6). |  | | MRI should be considered in patients who have clinical evidence of an associated rotator cuff tear and in those who choose to have their biceps surgically repaired. |  | | There was mild tenderness over the bicipital groove and the short head of the biceps when the patient, with his elbow extended and forearm supinated, flexed his left shoulder forward against resistance (Speed's test, figure 3). |

 | | These data suggest that: 1) the biceps brachii SSR can be reduced in human subjects; 2) concurrent changes are often observed in the synergist brachioradialis; and 3) the reduced biceps SSR magnitude is not linked to a compensatory increase in antagonist muscle activity. |  | | Comparison of data between control subjects and subjects who had undergone biceps SSR up-training in previous studies, suggests that the small increase seen among the present control subjects was probably not the result of a direct training effect. |  | | The training sessions were designed to reduce their biceps brachii spinal stretch reflexes (SSR). |
