The muscle that performs the same movement as the prime mover is known as a synergist. Synergists assist the prime mover in executing a specific movement, stabilizing the joint, or reducing any unwanted motion. By working together, the prime mover and synergists ensure more efficient and coordinated movement. An example is the biceps brachii acting as a synergist to the brachialis during elbow flexion.
