      Coordination Within Muscle Groups. Most movements are coordinated by several skeletal muscles acting in groups rather than individually, and most skeletal muscles are arranged in opposing (antagonistic) pairs at joints. A muscle that causes a desired action is referred to as the prime mover (agonist); the antagonist produces an opposite action.

      One action of the joint is not only the responsibility of one muscle but it is the responsibility of different groups of muscles, which can be classified as follows: Agonists, antagonists, synergists, fixators.

      antagonist. muscle directly opposes that action. For example, consider flexion and extension of the elbow. For flexion, the brachialis and biceps brachii are prime movers, while triceps brachii is the antagonist. ... The thigh contains three main muscle groups. The anterior thigh muscles act primarily to flex the thigh and extend the leg; the ...

      Identify and explain the relationship of opposing muscle groups (agonist/antagonist). Suggested Learning Targets: I can identify the agonist and antagonist muscle/muscle group for (e.g.; leg extension exercise/running) and explain to my partner the relationship between the muscle/muscle group for efficient and successful movement.

      19. The process that antagonist muscle groups must relax and lengthen when the agonist muscle group contracts is known as A. active insufficiency. B. reciprocal innervations. C. passive insufficiency. D. Sherrington's law. Activation of the motor units of the agonists causes a reciprocal neural inhibition of the motor units of the antagonists.

      Imbalance between antagonist muscle groups (a combination. of weakness in the upper back area and limited range of movement in the chest muscles). Muscle length is a function of the strength ratio between antagonist muscles. Imbalance between antagonist muscle groups alters the relative forces applied to speciļ¬c joints and affects their ...

      The main factors that facilitate pelvic stabilization are muscles and ligaments, and the basis for pelvic balance is a balance between antagonist muscle groups responsible for its movement on the sagittal plane (anterior and posterior pelvic tilt) (Solberg, 1996a). The abdominal muscles play an important role in maintaining pelvic stability.
