What anatomical fact is responsible for a pianist's forearms becoming tired before the fingers?

The muscles that curl the fingers and allow us to grip objects are in the lower forearm. There are weaker muscles on the top of the forearm that hold the wrist firm against the pull of the others, these muscles on the top of the forearm are most likely to get tired first. The muscles that move each finger side to side are in the palm of the hand, when the muscles for moving the finger sideways are used at the same time against each other they can be used to extend the fingers. These small muscles in the palm provide much greater control and relive stress from the forearm. This is why it is important to relax the arms, hands, and wrists while playing, keep the fingers arched and position the finger in place on the key, then press forwards, with practice it becomes a smooth, quick and controlled motion.
