Is a bicep a type of arm muscle?

Bicep translates from latin to mean "two heads" and this describes the most notable feature of the muscle. The biceps brachi is one of the muscle in the arm that acts on the elbow joint to suppinate (primary function) and to flex (secondary function) the forearm. There is however another biceps muscle in the body, this is why the one in the arm is given the full name "biceps brachi" to deistinguish it from the "biceps femoris". This muscle is again two headed but this time is is present on the femur, the bone in the thigh. It is one of the three muscles that forms the hamstring and as such it is involed in the flexion of the knee joint.

How do muscles work in pairs to bend and straighten the arm?

While one muscle contracts, the other muscle in the pair returns to its original length. The main muscle that bends your upper arm is called the Biceps brachii. The action is called flexion at the elbow. This muscle is on the "front" of the arm. The muscle that acts against this one is called the Triceps brachii. Its' action is extension at the elbow. This muscle is on the "back" of the arm. See the link below:

How can I effectively incorporate cross body arm curls into my workout routine to target multiple muscle groups?

To effectively incorporate cross body arm curls into your workout routine, start by standing with your feet shoulder-width apart and holding a dumbbell in each hand. Curl one arm across your body towards the opposite shoulder, then lower it back down. Repeat on the other side. This exercise targets the biceps, forearms, and shoulders, helping to work multiple muscle groups simultaneously. Aim for 3 sets of 12-15 reps on each arm to see results.
