What is the agonist and antagonist muscles in a lunge?
Agonist(s) - Gluteus Maximus/Quadriceps FemorisSynergist(s) - Biceps Femoris (Hamstrings)Stabilizer(s) - Transversus AbdominisAntagonist(s) - Hip Flexors (Mainly the Iliopsoas)Movement(s) - Hip Extension/Knee ExtensionPlanes - Sagittal PlaneYour agonist(s) (when done properly i.e. sitting back/knees out) for a squat will be your glutes and quadriceps. Your synergist(s) will actually be your hamstrings as the biceps femorislong head assists greatly in hip extension. Your antagonist(opposing muscle) during a squat will be your Hip flexors i.e. Hip flexion.
