Stretch Reflex
The Agonist muscle. In contrast, the muscle group that has passive action(the muscle being stretched) is called the antagonis muscle. For example, when doing a bicep curl. Your biceps are the agonists and your triceps would be the antagonists.

When a muscle is over stretched it is called hyperextension. This is sometimes called a pulled muscle. It can be anywhere from minor to severe.

you have stretched a muscle or you don't stretch enough
An injury caused by a muscle being overstretched is called a muscle strain. It occurs when the muscle fibers are stretched beyond their normal limits, leading to tearing of the muscle fibers. Common symptoms include pain, swelling, and reduced range of motion.

The myotatic reflex is provoked by activation of muscle spindles in a stretched muscle. These muscle spindles are sensory receptors that detect changes in muscle length and help regulate muscle contraction and body position. When a muscle is stretched, the muscle spindles send signals to the spinal cord, leading to a reflex contraction to prevent overstretching.
