Muscles never "push"; they can only "pull".
The only power that muscles have is to contract or relax. When they contract, they pull. Most bones have two or more sets of muscles, and each muscle pulls in one direction; in sets, the muscles can work together or oppose each other, which account for all the actions that an animal or person can perform.

AnswerThough not all muscles work in pairs, the general principle is that one muscle moves a bone one way, and the other muscle moves it the opposite way. Why? Because muscles can only pull, not push.For example, when you bend your arm, the biceps muscle pulls. When you want to straighten it, the biceps muscle cannot push it back. Instead, the triceps muscle that's on the back of the arm pulls in the other direction.
