In producing movement a muscle is either an agonist (prime mover), antagonist (relaxes and lengthens to allow movement) or a stabiliser (giving the muscle a fixed base). For example in bending the elbow the agonist is the biceps and the antagonist the triceps.

agonist/antagonist pairs: flexors/extensors and abductors/adductors synergist: a muscle that helps a larger agonist work more efficiently example: latissimus dorsi extends, adducts, and medially rotates arm at shoulder joint; teres major assists in starting such movements when the should joint is at full flexion

An inverse agonist is a compound that binds to a receptor and produces a pharmacological response that is opposite to that of the corresponding agonist. An agonist increases the activity mediated by a receptor, an inverse agonist reduces it. In the presence of the agonist the inverse agonist acts as an antagonist.

Antagonist. Muscles that eccentrically contract to oppose a movement. Example: Triceps contracting during the up phase of a curl. Stabilizer/Fixator. A muscle concentrically contracting to prevent/stabilize movement of another muscle/structure. Example: During water skiing, the rhomboids contract to stabilize the scapula against the pull of the ...

The agonist is the gluteus maximus and the hamstring. The antagonist is the hip flexors. The right knee which is a hinge joint also flexes. The muscles that cause knee flexion are the hamstrings which are the agonist, and the antagonist muscle is the quadriceps.
