Synergists are muscles that work together in a close cooperation as they either contract or relax to modify the action of the agonist. Their aim is: - To make the agonist stronger. To eliminate the action of undesired movement. They may alter the direction of pull and that depends on their power in relation to the agonist muscle.

Agonist (prime mover) Antagonist. Synergist. Fixator. What are some of the typical features/characteristics that are used in the naming of muscles? Provide specific examples of each (i.e. the trapezius muscle is named on the basis of its shape, the sternocleidomastoid is named on the basis of its origin & insertion, etc.)

The mechanisms behind the agonist and antagonist muscles function to permit efficient joint movement. Accurately defined the terms using hip flexion as an example. Correctly stated that during hip flexion the agonist muscle is the Rectus femoris (Quadriceps Femoris) and the antagonist muscle is the Biceps Femoris.

antagonist is the muscle that works in opposition to the agonist (to help produce a co-ordinated movement. When one muscle is acting as an agonist and the other is acting as the antagonist, the muscles are said to be working together as a pair to produce the required movement. This arrangement is commonly referred to as antagonistic muscle action.

Roles of Muscles. Four Roles Muscles Play. Agonist. Antagonist. Stabilizer or Fixator. Neutralizer or Synergist. Definitions. Agonist. Muscles that concentrically contract to cause a movement. Example: Biceps contracting during the up phase of a curl. Antagonist. Muscles that eccentrically contract to oppose a movement.

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.
