What is Bicep brachiis antagonist and synergist?

In: Muscular System [Edit categories]

Answer:

the antagonsit is the tricep but im not sure what the synergist is sorry

: revised :
the synergist in a biceps curl would be the posterior deltoid as it flexes to stabilize the shoulder, as the secondary role of the biceps brachii in a biceps curl is to pull the elbow forward and upward in an arc towards the shoulder.

if you were looking at the synergists to the biceps brachii as an agonist in its usual role, then the brachioradialis would be the synergist.
