So, a friend of mine posted this picture on her blog:
My reaction was this: "Wow, look at how perfectly the bicep fits under the deltiod. Oh wow, look at that brachioradialis. I didn't know you could develop that muscle enough to be able to see it from a distance. Ok so then the brachialis is THERE and the coracobrachialis is THERE..."
Somehow, I don't think that was the reaction K was fishing for when she put that picture on her blog.
I feel like I am taking this Anatomy and Physiology thing way too far.

you sound like a med student.
You can't see the coracobrachialis... and the brachialis is being pushed out because his arm is bent so much. If his arm was straight it would be harder to see. Also, are you sure it's not the Extensor carpi radialis longus or even the Extensor carpi radialis brevis that you're looking at? And why aren't ANY of these words in this stupid spellcheck?!?!?!? Why isn't spellchack in spellcheck?
I know you can't see the brachialis because it is underneath the biceps, and you can't see the coracobrachialis. Its just that when I saw the picture, I pointed to the general location in my head after the deltoid and the biceps brachii got me started. If his extensors are REALLY developed you might be able to see the ends of them, but they are not likely to be that developed. Its more likely that his kote is compressing the body of the brachioradialis, making its proximal end pop out more.
