The Muscular System: Agonists and Antagonists

2. What does a muscle’s name tell us?
Name and description of the muscle – sometimes in name itself (Example: occipitalis)
Origin and insertion – there is always a joint between the origin and insertion (Example: biceps brachii – origin has two heads, crosses elbow distal to upper arm)
Action – easy to remember it by acting out a muscle’s movement on your own body (Example: extensor carpi digitorum)

3. Example: Muscles Crossing the Elbow
Forearm extension
The triceps brachii is the prime mover of forearm extension
Forearm flexion
Brachialis and biceps brachii are the chief forearm flexors
The brachioradialis acts as a synergist and helps stabilize the elbow
