What's a "head" when it comes to a muscle?

Its where the muscle "originates". In anatomy muscles are said to arise from the the core of the body and insert away from it. So in the case of triceps, the heads arise from the shoulder region and insert into the ulna, which is further away from the body core than the shoulder.
