      Effect of Agonist-Antagonist Paired Set Training vs. Traditional Set Training on Post-Resistance Exercise Hypotension. JEPonline . 2014; 17(6):13-23. This study investigated the effect of agonist-antagonist paired sets (PS) training vs. traditional sets (TS) training on systolic (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) responses.

      Define the terms prime mover (agonist), antagonist, synergist, and fixator. For a given movement, differentiate specific muscles that function as prime mover, antagonist, synergist, or fixator. 10.

      The action of a specific muscle may change depending on the actions of other muscles. In general, muscles are typically arranged in what are called antagonistic muscle groups, such that the prime mover or the agonist has an opposing action to the antagonist. A. Prime Mover (Agonist) - produces desired action of a certain movement.

      In the current study, a significant decrease was noted for the P1, P2, and P3 stretching protocols for the BP and the LLC exercises compared to the NS protocol. These results are in agreement with several studies that reported a decrease in force production after SS of the agonist muscles (7,8,11,12,19).

      The agonist muscle group that flexes the knees is the hamstring muscles: semitendinosus; semimembranosus; and bicep femoris. The antagonist muscle group that assists with knee flexion is the quadriceps: rectus femoris; vastus lateralis; vastus intermedias; and vastus medialis.

      (1) Fatigue in Antagonist Muscles. Fatigue is sometimes due to wasteful activity (activity that exceeds the requirements of the task). When movements are performed in a non-rhythmic manner there may be wasteful activity by antagonist muscles (the muscles that act in opposition to the agonist muscle that causes the movement).

      produce a relatively short lived contraction of the agonist muscle and short lived inhibition of the antagonist muscle. Prolonged and firm stretch produces inhibition of muscle responses which may help in reducing hypertonus, e.g. Bobath's neuro-developmental technique, inhibitory splinting and casting technique.

      Think of muscles in terms of antagonistic (one is an agonist while the other is an antagonist) actions. When an agonist contracts, the antagonist will relax. Also keep in mind that several muscles may have similar actions and that the exact movement of a bone will be the result of a coordinated effort involving many muscles (force couples).

      Agonist binds to opioid pain receptor in brain & causes an analgesic response. Partial agonist: binds to pain receptor and causes only limited actions. Antagonist: reverses the efx of these on pain receptors. Primarily bind to mu, kappa & delta receptors. Many opiods have affinity for CNS…suppress medullary cough center

      The muscles that pull on bones to produce a contraction movement are called agonist muscles whilst antagonist muscles relax and lengthen to produce an extension movement. For example, during flexion of the elbow, the biceps act as agonist muscles to contract and triceps act as antagonist muscles to relax.

      Draw a graph of a full agonist versus a partial agonist (label all axes). On another graph, draw the curve of an agonist alone versus an agonist + a competitive antagonist. How does this differ from the addition of a non-competitive antagonist? Agonist=drugs or ligands for the receptor that provoke/inhibit a biological response.

      The antagonist relaxes as the agonist moves the part through a range of motion. 3. Synergist: A muscle that contracts and works along with the agonist to produce the desired movement. There are three types of synergists: a) Neutralizing or counter-acting synergists: Muscles contract to prevent any unwanted movement produced by the prime mover.
