Question about muscles

[hardmanbrit]

I am young and poorly educated.

Could somebody name all the muscles in the arm for me?

What is the muscle between the bicep and the tricep?

I have seemingly damaged it and I am not sure whether or not that will limit the power of my punch?

I am not sure how I damaged it but it hurts and I get pins and needles and ****.

How do you repair painful muscles and are they sometimes irrepairable?

You have the internet, use it.

I have found out, thanks.

But what is the best thing for slight muscle pain or damage etc?

DOCTOR!!!!!! At least if you suspect there may be some damage, definitely check it out with a doctor.

is it agonising, or just a bit of pain, because it may just be muscle tear; either way see a doctor, better safe than sorry

Just a bit of pain.

Only really when I move it though.

I have been told that rest is the best.

and you can carry on with cv if poss

First of all, how do you know it's damaged and not just worked? After a work out your muscles hurt abit, they're not really damaged. If that's the case, just rest, maybe rub on some heat rub which can soften the pain (strong smell, personally I like the smell but I wouldn't want to walk around and smell like it).

If it's a real injury, then I wouldn't perform too many punches until it's been fixed because when the arm is extended and retracted it puts it under tension. So I guess it would damage your power because it'd become zero. Of course, this aside, punches start from the ground, not your arm, your arm is a coil, the finishing touch to the punch as it were, not the punch itself.

How would the power in my arms suddenly become zero?
