Biceps insertions

[casadebanho]

The distance between the end of my bicep and my forearm is 2,7cm

Is that a short bicep insertion or neither short nor long?

Which is better? Mine is long. What's ideal short or long?

long, you want to have a longer bicep, looks more aesthetic

Short gives you a better bicep peak for flexing, while long gives you a better bicep peak when not flexing.

Something in between is ideal, not too long so you still have a peak, and not too short since it looks like utter bullshit

Long is better since we don't walk around all day doing front double bicep poses which is the one and only time a short bicep insertion is a good thing. It's a general rule of all the muscles that the closer the insertion is to the joint the better it looks.
