The Brachialis is an anterior skeletal arm muscle that extends from the medial arm to the superior area of the forearm. The brachialis fibers originate in the anterior part of the humerus and direct to the inferior part of the elbow, where they insert in the upper region of the ulna and distal radius. This muscle is an elbow flexor being used in every movement needed to approximate the anterior part of the forearm to the arm. It is a very thick and powerful muscle that acts with high speed.
