POLL: Biceps or Triceps? Which one is more important?

[StageLeft]

Both are equally important, though the tricep has 2/3 of the total upper arm muscle. Working one and not the other is just silly.

Jessieqwert - do you mean chinups and pullups? I found the way you described it a bit confusing. Why not say palms facing away, and palms facing towards yourself.

Yeah, I was just clarifying.

Or in this case confusing

Hey lets ask Alkehmyst. He seems to know everything about anything!

 

[Spamela]

they're both NOTHING compared to the Spinae Erectors.

 

[TStep]

It all depends on if you are a pusher or a puller........

however, without one, the other is useless.

Triceps..since it's usually what we ladies are hanging onto during life's more romantic moments

Most major sports movements (e.g. throwing a ball, swinging a club) a predominantly tricep-oriented. I laugh when I see "athletes" work their biceps to "gain speed on my fastball," etc. etc.
