What is antagonist muscle to scalene?

Sternocleidomastoid and the Scalenes are Synergists, which mean that they work together to provide the same movements (flexion, rotation and lateral flexion of the head and neck)An Antagonist is a muscle that does the opposite movements. In this case, Antagonists of the Scalenes would be your posterior neck muscles, such as:Upper TrapeziusSplenius CapitusSplenius CervicisSemispinalis Capitis, etc
