What is the antagonist muscle in a push up?

in the downward phase (eccentric phase) the biceps, pecs and abs are the agonist muscles and the triceps, lats and spinal erectors are the antagonist. In the upward phase (concentric phase) they are reversed. The triceps, lats and spinal erectors are the agonists and the biceps, pecs & abs are the antagonists. Your deltoids are your stablisers

What does the pectoralis minor do during the bench press exercise?

During the bench press, pectoralis minor will attempt to isometrically stabalise the scapulae by preventing a posterior tilt (backwards tilt), it does this pull pulling on the corocoid process insertion on the scapula. It will concentrically help to draw the shoulder forward (protraction) on the press phase of the movement by bringing the scapulae around the back of the rib cage.


What is another name for prime mover?

Agonistmuscles cause a movement to occur through their own contraction. [1] For example, the triceps brachii does during the up phase of a push-up (elbow extension). During the down phase of a push-up, the same triceps brachii actively controls elbow flexion while relaxing. It is still the agonist. While resisting gravity during relaxing, the triceps brachii is still the prime mover, or controller, of the joint action. For both of those movements the elbow flexor muscles are the antagonists. Agonists are also referred to, interchangeably, as "prime movers", since they are the muscles being considered that are primarily responsible for generating a specific movement. This term typically describes skeletal muscles.[2]
