An isometric exercise is one in which the joint angle does not change during the application of muscle force. For instance, you can join your hands together, pushing down with one hand and pushing up with the other. In each arm, the muscles that provide the force are connected to the bones of the arm by tendons. If you increase the forces but keep the angles the same, the muscles will still contract. Explain how this is possible.

- Describe each muscle needed to contract for specific movement and each muscles action during that action. Each muscle firing is it's own step.

Muscles: Biceps, brachialis. Step 1: The brachialis has an origin at the humerus and inserts at the ulna. Contracting is a flexion action.
