Benefits of exercise

Biceps extension on FISIO functional loops.

The biceps is one of the muscles that they are trying hard to pump up, increase its volume and strength. In this case, the hypertrophied muscle becomes non-elastic, the amplitude of movements in the elbow joint decreases and there is a risk of injury, especially when working with large weights. 

The biceps muscle itself is not large, and heavy strength loads can lead to chronic inflammation of the elbow joint and sprains. Competent strength training combined with biceps stretching exercises will help to develop arm strength. Flexible muscle = strong muscle. Do this exercise before biceps strength training, prepare your muscles and ligaments for the main work.
