Part I: Identification of Muscles and their ActionsStudent Learning Goals

1. Identify various muscles in the human body using images and human muscle models.

2. Identify the action, origin and, insertion of each muscle identified.

3. Identify prime movers (agonists), antagonistic muscles, synergistic muscles, and fixators/stabilizers of each muscle action.

Review: Planes of the Body

Pearl River Community College

Terminology

• Origin – point at which a muscle attaches to a bone and is static

• Insertion – point at which a muscle attaches to a bone and moves that bone upon contraction

Pearl River Community College

Terminology

• Prime mover (Agonist) – primary muscle completing the action

• Antagonist – relaxes to allow the agonist to contract; contraction results in an opposite movement

• Synergist(s) – hold the body in the correct position to complete the action

• Fixator/Stabilizer – special synergist that stabilizes the bone of the prime movers origin

Part II: Incorporation of Exercise and Muscle ActionStudent Learning Goals

• Review various muscle groups on muscle models

• Identify prime movers (agonists), antagonistic muscles, synergistic muscles, and fixators/stabilizers of the muscles used in the assigned exercise

Assignment Options

1. Complete the assignment during lab using the handout provided– Addition of synergist/fixators to list

2. Assign different muscle groups to students and require students to choreograph muscle movements that use the muscle groups– Addition of light weights and/or bands

3. Online adaptations
