What muscles perform rotation of the elbow joint about the axis of the arm, while keeping the hand fixed?
If I extend my arm straight and place my palm against a surface, I can rotate my elbow joint about the axis of the arm, while keeping my hand fixed. (ie: I can rotate my elbow joint without rotating my hand)

What are the names of the muscles perform this rotation? Thanks.

Biceps, Triceps and pronator teres && supinator muscle.

You are using the muscles that normally your forearm uses to twist, but because you focus on not changing the position of your hand your arm twists instead.
