Why heart muscle is not describe as an antagonistic muscle?

Heart muscle, or cardiac muscle, is not described as an antagonistic muscle because it functions differently from skeletal muscles, which work in pairs to create movement. Instead of opposing actions, cardiac muscle fibers contract rhythmically and simultaneously to pump blood throughout the body. This coordinated contraction is essential for maintaining a consistent heartbeat, ensuring efficient blood circulation without the need for antagonistic pairs.
