The second post of GENRE:MEDICINE is about the muscles of the upper limb....also can be called as MUSCLES of the ARM,FOREARM and HANDS in particular.Muscles are very important for the movements that we perform everyday...n especially the muscles of arm,forearm n hands are of great importance...
The main idea behind writing about them was to create a general awareness amongst the non medical individuals about the muscles of upper limb.....making their anatomical and medical terminologies familiar to the non medical individuals ...or their naming in general....and also while performing certain actions or movements a non medical individual must have an idea that which muscle is used or employed...
I have discussed in a rhyming fashion some of the very main muscles of the arm, forearm and hands because at this level it would be fruitless.to talk about all of the muscles of upper limb..it won't be understandable for them
I have added the names of rostam and sohrab to the title.. because both of them were the heroes in the persian mythology.....if u guys have came across the persian epic shahnameh....it would be very easy to understand why i have added them to the title of the post...all that i can say, they were the strong brave men...the father and the son...n muscles of upper limb's post needed the mentioning of some great,brave n muscular men i must say.....
The actions of some of the very major n important muscles are written below ....their application in our daily lives....in an easier way n in a rhyming fashion...the muscles i have mentioned would be in the CAPITAL LETTERS....so here's some anatomy mixed with PAKISTANI CULTURE n daily life...hope u guys would appreciate the idea of it n would gain something useful out of it...

A trio of BICEPS BRACHII, CORACHOBRACHIALIS and BRACHIALIS is perfectly employed this way

Remember the times when Saqlain Mushtaq used to bowl; also known as The Offspin Magician
