  • the triceps brachial, located at the posterior part of the arm, is the principal bungee cord of the front armlever on the arm. Its action is antagonistic of that of the Biceps brachial.

  • the triceps sural (C. - with-D. Calf), located at the posterior part of the leg, is the muscle which gives its relief to the calf. Its three chiefs are the side gastrocnémien (twin in the past external), the gastrocnémien médial (twin in the past intern) and the soléaire.
