If you are performing the weightlifting exercise known as the strict curl, the tension in your biceps tendon is
a. smaller than the weight you are lifting
b. equal to the weight you are lifting
c. larger than the weight you are lifting

c. larger than the weight you are lifting

Explanation:

This biceps exercise can put a lot of strain on the wrists and elbows. In general Weight training is a common type of strength training for developing the strength and size of skeletal muscles. It utilizes the force of gravity in the form of weighted bars, dumbbells or weight stacks in order to oppose the force generated by muscle through concentric or eccentric contraction.

Therefore, If you are performing the weightlifting exercise known as the strict curl, the tension in your biceps tendon is larger than the weight you are lifting.

to increase speed you need to decrease frictiona dn drag hense why sprinters wear tight track suits to keep tight against there skin to keep away from wind and decrease the amount of drag you are carrying.a swimmer will wear the tightest swim suit they can possibly fit into (i was a size 28 swim suit at meets i wore a   size 23) why? because the tighter your clothing is the less drag and negative force you have. the heavier the clothe the slower and more wind gets caught. cotton tends to hold onto alot of sweat and water making it slower then say a track suit (no idea what they are made of but they are really comfy around your answer )
