Brachialis : This muscle lies underneath the biceps. It acts as a bridge between the humerus and ulna, one of the main bones of the forearm. It’s involved with the flexing of the forearm.

CoracoBrachialis :This muscle is located near the shoulder. It allows adduction of the upper arm and flexion of the shoulder. It also helps to stabilize the humerus within shoulder joint.

Triceps Brachii :This muscle, usually referred to as triceps, runs along the humerus and allows for the flexion and extension of the forearm. It also helps to stabilize the shoulder joint.

Anconeus : This is a small, triangular muscle that helps to extend the elbow and rotate forearm. It’s sometimes considered to be an extension of the triceps.
