The biceps and triceps muscles work synergistically; the biceps muscles contracting concentrically and the triceps muscles contracting eccentrically when the forearm lifts, and it's the exact reverse when the forearm lowers.

Muscles work in pairs, one muscle contracts and pulls on the bones to which they are attached and cause the bone to move. The bone can not move back to its original state until another muscle pulls on it. In short: Muscles work together to produce movement by one contracting and another relaxing.
