What is the longest muscle in the body?
Sartorius
Definition of Agonist
Prime mover that produces the main action
(Shortens the muscle)
Definition of Antagonist
Executes the action opposite of the agonist muscle
(Relaxes or lengthens the muscle)
Definition of Synergists
Any muscle that assists the agonist in producing the main action
(Assists)
Where is the Posterior Tibial Artery?
Distal end Posterior to the medial malleolus
Isometric contraction
Activates the muscle, but no movement
(No movement) Example: WALL SIT
Isotonic
(Two types of contraction)
Has two types of MOVEMENT:
Concentric: (Weight in hand)
a) Muscle shortens
b) Force (muscle tension) overcomes resistance
Eccentric: (muscle tension- squatting downward quads)
a) muscle lengthens
b) resistance overcomes strength

Slightly movable
Cartilaginous joints held by cartilage
found in symphysis pubis and intervertebral discs
Synovial joint (Diarthrotic)
Freely movable
Bones surrounded by a joint capsule of ligaments and synovial membranes and filled with synovial fluid
Ends of bones are covered by hyaline cartilage
