[FUN] Show us your (piano) muscles!

Or whatever weird stuff piano does to your body! (Please use your best judgement about sharing images that others may not want to see.)

I noticed today that the "piano muscle" in my right hand has gotten almost obscenely big. It looks bigger in person than in the photo! I think it's hilarious so I thought I would share.

Note: to spoiler an image, put >! in front of the text.

Unfortunately I don’t play enough to develop muscles of any kind… and the one area that keeps expanding due to sitting too much is not photographable unless we get PG rating in the forum 😆

Hi Sophia,
We're sorry, we were unable to lose muscle every time. You always build up their strength to keep them healthy. Practicing is more important than 3 hours a day. Those issues, you have to sit up straight on their piano stools. Thank you for reaching out.

My whole life I have been a handsome guy who has done a lot of bodybuilding, cycling, running, and swimming.

Then I started to play piano...

This is the only piano muscle I have that’s gotten bigger as a result of playing the piano.

ShiroKuro That is the one muscle I would like to grow more than any other muscles in my body, so consider yourself very fortunate. 😊

Sophia

Welcome to the forum, Abigail! Please tell us a little something about yourself and your piano experience 🙂

Thank you, Sophia! We appreciate your request my parents are going to the CIMC competition on Thursday. Keep practice until their perfect.

Well the depressing one for me, is that I have Dupuytren's Contracture in my left hand. At the moment it's only mild, and hopefully it'll remain that way.

I did 103 press-ups yesterday.

No photos of either!

Cheers
