Coracobrachialis muscle:
It is one of the joint muscles of the shoulder, which mostly plays an auxiliary role to some other muscles such as the deltoid and biceps. This muscle is deeper than other muscles in this area and is located in the front and lower part of the upper arm.
This muscle should be strengthened well in various sports, including resistance and weight training, to guarantee the health of the arm joint. Because this muscle is narrow, it is more exposed to injuries related to fatigue and overtraining.
