When muscles work in pairs when one contracts what does the other muscle do?
Well it's first important to understand that muscles shorten. So you have a muscle that is longer when its relaxed, but then when you use that muscle it shortens pulling the bone(s) that it is attached to with it. So if you hold out your arm palm side up and then bend your elbow so your hand comes toward your shoulder, your biceps are shortening and causing the movement. Now when you reverse the movement and go back to your arm straight and your palm up, your triceps are shortening. There are many muscles that work this way in the human body. There are prime movers which preform a a function, and antagonists which do perform the opposite of that function. Also, there are synergists muscles which help the prime movers by performing the same movement as them or making sure that you don't perform an undesirable movement. Then there are fixators which are a type of synergists which hold bones still while the prime mover is contracting.
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]
