Many people have the misconception that biceps play an important role in Weightlifting. The biceps muscle is relatively unimportant in good weightlifting technique. The force for lifting and accelerating the bar is produced in the legs and the quadriceps is the main muscle group. The triceps play an important part in holding weights overhead. The function of the tricep is to straighten the arm, and in holding a weight overhead the elbows must be locked out and the triceps make this happen.
