Name the insertion of the primary muscle used?
The primary muscle attached at the point of insertion is the muscle that undergoes the most movement when the muscle contracts. For example, in the bicep curl exercise, the bicep muscle is the primary muscle attached at its point of insertion on the radius bone in the forearm.
What is a muscle with primary action at a freely moving joint called?
The Agonist muscle. In contrast, the muscle group that has passive action(the muscle being stretched) is called the antagonis muscle. For example, when doing a bicep curl. Your biceps are the agonists and your triceps would be the antagonists.
Name the origin of the primary muscle used in hammer curl?
Chin-ups, just as most exercises use a primary & secondary muscle group. The primary muscle group would be the back (or latissimus dorsi). This is what helps to give that "V" - shape in the torso area. (along with slimming down the torso area, of course) The secondary muscle group would be the biceps. Depending on your grip position, you can focus either more on your "lats", or arms.
What is the origin of the bicep curl?
if you're speaking anatomically (as in origin and insertion), the origin of the bicep curl would be its fixed attachment at the supraglenoid tubercle and the coracoid process (two heads), as a bicep curl is an open chain motion (distal end is free moving --> proximal end is the origin). it would be more correct, though, to say refer to it as the origin of the biceps during a bicep curl.
What abdominal muscle is the stabilizer in an abdominal curl?
A curl-up on a stable surface, rectus abdominis muscle activity was 21% of MVC and external oblique muscle activity was 5% of MVC.
What is hammered toes?

When lowering an arm curl what muscle is being worked?
The triceps muscle (and still the biceps muscle, to a certain extent).
The front curl is a muscular resistance exercise that primarily works which muscle group?
The Front Curl works with the biceps.
Which muscle group is strengthened when performing curl-ups?
= abdominals=
Leg curl is a muscular resistance exercise that primarily works which muscle group?
The leg curl and leg extension exercises strengthens two muscle groups. The two muscle groups are the hamstring muscles and the quads or quadricep muscles.
