FUNCTIONAL TERMS OF MUSCLES
AGONIST or PRIME MOVERS
Flexion of the forearm at the elbow joint , biceps brachii does most work
SYNERGIST or ASSISTS
Assists biceps brachii -Direct action, -Stabilizes the joint involved in the movement
ANTAGONISTS or OPPOSITE
Triceps brachii extends the forearm at the elbow joint, controls the force or speed of biceps brachii
