✨Stretch of the Week✨
Bicep Brachii
The biceps brachii is the large muscle on the front of the upper arm. It has two heads (“bi” meaning two) and helps with bending the elbow, rotating the forearm (supination), and assisting shoulder movement and stability. Because it’s used constantly in lifting, pulling, carrying, and gripping, it can easily become tight or overworked.
