During arm flexion, what type of contraction would the triceps brachii be exhibiting: concentric isotonic contraction, eccentric isotonic contraction, isometric contraction.
Madhur L.
The arm models we used simulated the actions of flexion and extension at the human elbow joint. Standing in the anatomical position, slowly bend your arm at the elbow. The muscle that's producing the force is (bicep or tricep). The contraction type is (concentric or eccentric). The opposite action is (concentric or eccentric contraction). The muscle that's producing the force is (bicep or tricep).

If both the biceps and triceps muscle contract at the same time, what happens?
