Ted,
I was only addressing the middle portion of Jeff's post: "Forerarm muscles can only perform the following anatomical actions-:
1) Flex, extend, abduct or adduct the fingers and thumb.
2) Palmarflex or dorsiflex the wrist.
3) Radially deviate or ulnarly deviate the wrist.
4) Pronate or supinate the hand.
Forearm muscles cannot flex or extend the elbow joint because they are distal (peripheral) to the elbow joint.
Jeff."
Hopefully, that makes my post more relevant.
Mike,
Then tell us why would Homer write...."and the Right Forearm is ALWAYS DRIVING." And why would Tomasello say "DRIVE that right forearm to a long right arm" while demonstrating the swinging procedure.
