When one muscle works against another it is known as an antagonistic action. This is common is muscles that are found in pairs.

Antagonist is a process or agent that works against another.
Muscle hypertrophy is another way of saying and 'over-growth' of muscle tissue. Someone who works out with weights can become hypertrophic.
It works to keep us upright, against the pull of gravity by using postural muscles.
Antagonist muscles are muscles that counteract the action of agonist muscles.Some examples of antagonist muscles are:Triceps work opposite of biceps.Hamstrings works opposite of quadriceps.The sternocleidomastoid works opposite of the deltoids.
The position of the frontalis is over the frontal bone or the forehead. This muscle works with the occipitalis which is over the occipital bone in the back of the head. It's action is to elevate the eyebrows.

1 muscle works 2 move it 1 way, another works 2 move it the other way.
Agonist works with the muscles, and the antagonist is the muscle working against it in a contraction. i.e. Bicep curl, the agonist is the Biceps brachii and the antagonist muscle is the triceps brachii.The word agonist means "producing an action" - an antagonist opposes that action. In medicine, an agonist binds to a receptor site and causes a response, often imitating the natural body reaction. An antagonist acts against this drug and blocks the response. for examples ramiels small balls and pubic hair
One type of muscle is called smooth muscle. A smooth muscle works involuntarily. The other type of muscle is called skeletal muscle. Skeletal muscle only works with a command.
