The long head of the triceps attaches to the scapula*.

It is commonly known that the triceps makes up 75% of upper arm mass, therefore focus on biceps training isn't the way to get "big" arms. But it changes everything when you realize that the largest and strongest component of the triceps isn't strictly an "arm" muscle-- it is activated by arm position relative to the torso.
