Antagonistic Muscle ActionAntagonistic Muscle Action
Muscles are either contracted or relaxedMuscles are either contracted or relaxed When contracted the muscle exerts a When contracted the muscle exerts a
pulling force, causing it to shortenpulling force, causing it to shorten Since muscles can only pull (not push), they Since muscles can only pull (not push), they
