>your upper body strength is shite without it My upper body strength is shite with it. Can't properly hold on to 500lbs, barely bench 330lbs, OHP is 220 with a backwards bend.

>The palmaris longus is a muscle visible as a small tendon The tendon is what is visible in OPs pic. Everyone has the muscle it's just the tendon that's missing.

How is that door in the background supposed to be opened?
Ayden Ross
I’m weird. I have it in my left but not my right. Either that or it’s not very prominent in the right
It's more prominent on my left arm and that's the arm I use when I masturbate :)
Landon Flores
I got it and also my small arms are stronger than some guy's huge arms. SOME. Once 300lbs came at me without much warning down some stairs and well, I stopped it and held it; and I've never "benched" in my life. Call it adrenaline if you want to, but the fact is that some scrawny looking guys are freakishly strong when we want to be.

Get out of fit newfag
Nolan Jones
Mine is like 1.4cm of solid mass running down into my forearm mucles; is this a sign I need to stop fasting and doing BJJ all the time and get my ass in a gym
This is very rare. I have yet to see someone not having it irl.
Robert Phillips
it could be an old home, I have the same thing in my house where i have two doors in my room and one leads to my sister's room so i put a cupboard over it
Elijah Hill
if you dont have the tendon then the muscle is useless

That in the picture is NOT the M. palmaris longus.
Thats the M. flexor carpi radialis. Pleb.
Jacob Phillips
Wait. People really don’t have this? Are you sure some people just don’t have a prominent one? How can some humans be missing it?
Gavin Cook
Its useless tendon. Nice b8 OP
Carter Bell
Just like niggas have certain leg muscles which other races don't. Specialisation and the fact that our bodies degenerate useless traits to save energy.
Gabriel Baker
COPE Holding 300lbs is ridiculously easy, orders of magnitude easier than lifting it and 300lbs is not heavy anyway. Muscle strength is proportional to cross sectional area - scrawny guys are WEAK.

>a fucking oven mitt
Elijah Carter
I have it, also is this a meme? You're baiting right?
Levi Moore
Can confirm, had the one in my right wrist removed for this purpose
Blake Robinson
it's the left one it's a cool muscle not gonna lie
Jack Thompson
I only have it in my right arm, been this way since I was born.
Connor Kelly
>mfw this thread always thought i fucked up my wrists with exercise cause friends don't have it.
I have it on my left arm but not the right. And no it isn't a necessary muscle as it was for ripping meat with your bear hands back in caveman days. It's slowly going away in humans through evolution because we don't fucking rip animals apart anymore. also you niggers are complaining over a muscle or tendon doesn't fucking matter if you have the muscle the tendon will be there fucking twats. >tr;dr its a nonessential muscle.
haha wtf user. how much can you deadlift without hooks?
Hunter Carter
please tell me you're underage because if not you might be fucked for life with those tiny wrists. Also, did your mom make you vegan when you were younger?
Camden Rogers
the coolest part is that i can see the fibers when i retract each finger, they are all different and i can see them individually as each finger moves but they gather to make that muscle pictured
i'm only about a year into training at 355 dead no grip problems. but this shit is straight up from playing guitar as teen, it's not on my right hand as near as prominently.
