Muscle Bundle = group of muscle fibers (muscle cells) that function together and are bound together by fascia (connective tissue). Examples: biceps brachii, trapezius, pectoralis major. Origin Insertion Belly rime mover = muscle hat provides the primary ovement at a joint. In this xample: Biceps brachii ynergist = muscle that ssists the prime mover. n this case the brachialis ntagonist = muscle that opposes he prime mover. In this example: riceps brachii.

Muscle Bundle = group of muscle fibers (muscle cells) that function together and are bound together by fascia (connective tissue). Examples: biceps brachii,trapezius, pectoralis major.

Origin

Insertion

Belly

Prime mover = muscle that provides the primary movement at a joint. In thisExample: Biceps brachii

Synergist = muscle that Assists the prime mover.In this case the brachialis

Antagonist = muscle that opposes The prime mover. In this example:Triceps brachii.
