Bicep

The body s frame or skeleton is constmcted as a set of levers powered or operated by muscle tissue. A typical muscle consists of a central fibrous tissue portion, and tendons at either end. One end of the muscle, known as the head, is attached to tendon tissue, which is attached to bone that is fixed, and known as the point of origin. The other end of the muscle is attached to a tendon. This tendon is attached to bone that is the moving part of the joint. This end of the muscle is known as the insertion end. An example is the bicep muscle which is coimected to the humems bone of the upper arm at its head or origin. The insertion end of the muscle is coimected to the radius bone of the forearm, otherwise known as the moving part of the elbow joint. [Pg.185]

Typically, in order for motion to occur, several muscle sets must work together to perform even the simplest movements. The bicep is a two-muscle set the tricep is a three-muscle set. Each set works in tandem. Within each muscle group, muscle fibers obey the aU. or none principle, ie, aU. muscle fibers contract or none contract. Therefore, if the muscle fibers of a muscle group are stimulated enough by nerve impulses to contract, they contract to the maximum. [Pg.186]

Physical examination of the musculoskeletal system (e.g., biceps, triceps, quadriceps, temporalis, deltoid, and interosseus muscles) for loss of muscle mass, and examination of the skin and mucous membranes for abnormalities (e.g., noting dry or flaky skin, bruising, edema, ascites, poorly healing wounds) and loss of subcutaneous fat... [Pg.1499]

Figure 13.2 Antagonistic muscles their role in movement. The action of antagonist muscles is exemplified by the actions involved in delivering a punch. The arm is first flexed by contraction of the biceps muscle and simultaneous relaxation of the triceps muscle. The arm is then rapidly extended by contraction of the triceps muscle and relaxation of the biceps muscle. Such movements involve considerable nervous coordination.

Eccentric contraction can most readily be appreciated by holding a weight in one hand close to the shoulder with the arm bent and lowering the arm from the elbow the biceps are developing tension to hold the weight but increasing in length as the arm is lowered. [Pg.276]

A man approaches you with his hand on his gun. He stands six feet tall, with a barrel chest and rock-hard belly to match. His cheeks look as if they d been sandblasted. The arms of his camouflage suit are torn off, revealing muscular arms decorated with faded green tattoos that run from his wrists to his biceps. His huge hands are scarred and soaked with sweat. With slow, deliberate movements, the man removes a black head-band from his pocket and ties it around his forehead. [Pg.142]

Tips For shorter candidates, the smoke ejector can be difficult to manage as they raise it over their heads to hang it properly, especially when they are wearing a turnout coat and helmet. Overall upper body strength, particularly in the biceps and shoulders, is needed. [Pg.334]

It is hard to believe that one could have a severed biceps muscle and not notice it, but when fighters are pumped up they can take inordinate punishment without pain. The arousal system that normally keeps us awake keeps us ultra-awake when we are after someone or when someone is after us. This hyperarousal can be associated with elation if we are the predator or with fear if we are the prey. In the heat of battle either of these emotions can be exchanged for the other, or mixed, or be accompanied by rage, depending on the strategy we adopt. [Pg.273]

The hierarchy of muscle organization. A voluntary muscle such as the bicep is a composite of many fibers connected to tendons at both ends. Each muscle fiber is composed of several myofibrils that are surrounded by an electrically excitable membrane (sarcolemma). [Pg.111]

Esiclene was not an anabolic steroid in the conventional sense. The drug was injected directly into a lagging (smaller muscles such as biceps, triceps, calves and delts, usually respond best) body part during the last 7-15 days before a contest. Though Esiclene is anabolic it is the drugs distinct site specific inflammatory /tissue fluid accumulatory effects users pursued. When an injection is administered, the muscle responds by receiving fluid from the lymph system as an inflammatory response. Within... [Pg.36]

This is not an anabolic steroid nor is it even an anabolic chemical except as a food. These were reported popular injectable products that contain a sterile (bacteria free and pure) medium chain triglyceride (MCT), an acid, and usually Procain or lidocaine (all of which have been made inert). The oil was injected deep into a muscle to add size. Usually this was done to smaller muscle groups such as biceps, triceps, delts, calves, and smaller round back muscles. [Pg.154]

Biceps When I hit a double bi pose, the peak of the bicep was obvious. Marking each peak, I then relax the arm at the side. Trust me, the marks were much higher when relaxed. The injection site was directly into the mark about half way between bone and skin surface. So if the bicep was 2 inches thick, relaxed, the needle was inserted an inch into the muscle itself. [Pg.191]

Tricep peak Basic procedure was the same as biceps. Hit double bi pose, mark the peak, and inject at the mark with arm relaxed. Again, half way into the muscle was the focused site. (Tricep peak obviously)... [Pg.191]

Any muscle could have been utilized for targeted site injection protocols. These were simply the most obvious since small muscles responded best to this technique. I preferred 1-3 ML per site and a 2 day on/2 day off protocol. This allowed me to train around each site so as to not disturb it too quickly. I once had seen biceps that had been site injected a few hours before an arm workout. Looked pretty bruised to say the least (Like snake bites). If I was hitting multiple sites, say delts, bi s and tri s, I simply trained chest/shoulders/tri s together and site injected/localized tri s and delts that and the next day. Back /traps/bi s followed on the next day after a rest day. Bi s with rear delts were injected. Simple huh How about crazy I always drew back on the syringe plunger to check for blood. If blood filled the rig, it was in a vein. [Pg.191]

A combination of metolachlor (Dual ) and atrazine in a liquid prepack called Bicep facilitated the growing practice of mixing atrazine with grass herbicides. Test marketed in 1978 and 1979, Bicep was introduced nationally in 1980. In 1997, atrazine was combined with S-metolachlor to produce Bicep II Magnum , since. S -metolachlor contains more of the active isomer and reduces the amount of herbicide needed for efficacy. [Pg.40]
