It is good to do some stretching before and after working out, and doing so can reduce the rate of physical injuries. The biceps brachii is located on the front of the upper arm. The whole muscle is spindle-shaped. There are certain things to pay attention to when stretching the biceps brachii. So, what are the best biceps stretches? Let’s take a look!
Biceps stretching method(62 muscle stretching courses, teach you how to stretch the biceps. )
Method 1
Stretch out one arm, straighten the arm and lift it forward from both sides of the body until the arm and shoulder are on a horizontal plane, with the palm facing upward. With the other hand, hold the outstretched palm in reverse and hold it downwards. You will feel a significant stretch in the biceps.

What are the benefits of stretching the biceps brachii (Biceps brachii stretching instruction to help you stretch more effectively Biceps. )
1. Stretching can enhance the quality of training and is a strong guarantee for the progress of the training plan.
2. The device stimulates the sensory nerves that control the biceps brachii and converts them through the nerve conduction in the anterior horn of the spinal cord to excite the biceps brachii motor neurons. Stretching exercises can relieve muscle tension or excitement. .
3. Stretching exercises can improve the stiffness and tightness of the biceps through specific movements, exercise the stretching ability of muscles and tendons, increase muscle elasticity, and facilitate the reserve of more elastic potential energy during exercise. .
4. Stretching before exercise can make tendons more flexible because it increases body temperature and increases joint range of motion, thereby avoiding joint, ligament and muscle damage. And muscles that have been stretched are better than muscles that have not been stretchedStretched muscles are better able to withstand stress.
