The Antagonist


I found a fitness dictionary online and began to explore it. You can find it here. Evidently there are agonists and antagonists. As follows:

     Agonist: A contracting muscle that is resisted or counteracted by another muscle, the antagonist.

     Antagonist: A muscle that produces an action that is exactly the opposite of the agonist.

And there you have it.
