Observe the below-given image and answer the following question: In which position are the biceps most contracted?

The biceps are most contracted at position 3 . Muscles always work in pairs. When one muscle contracts, the other relaxes. This contraction and relaxation of muscles is responsible for body movements. In our arm muscles, the humerus has a pair of muscles, namely the biceps (at the front) and the triceps (at the back). When the biceps contract, the triceps relax and this allows us to bend our arm. Contracted biceps bulge out and can be felt by our hand.
