Bicep femoris : The muscle has two heads a long head and a short head.
Origin: The long head originated from upper inner quadrant of posterior surface of ischial tuberosity of pelvis.
The short head originated from middle 3rd of linea aspara, lateral supracondylar ridge of femur, on posterior surface of femur
Insertion: Styloid process of head of fibula. lateral collateral ligament and lateral tibial condyle
Diagram indicating line of pull:
Articular : it is a biarticular.
Joint crosses: it crosses hip joint and knee joint.
Muscle agonist action at that joint:
At hip joint.. Gluteus maximus..... Agonist
Bicep femoris... Synergist
Errector spine.... Synergist.
... At knee joint.. Hamstring muscle is agonist...

Teres Minor..
The teres minor is a narrow, intrinsic shoulder muscle that extends from the lateral border of the scapula to the greater tubercle (or tuberosity) of the humerus.
Origin:at the lateral border and adjacent posterior surface of the scapula.
Insertion:Inferior facet of greater tuberosity of humerus [below infraspinatus] and capsule of shoulder joint
Diagram indicating line of pull: the arrow indicates the line of pull of teres minor
Articular surface:
Uni articular.. Crosses shoulder joint
Joint crosses:
Crosses shoulder joint.. The tendon of this muscle passes across, and is united with, the posterior part of the capsule of the shoulder-joint.
Muscle agonist action at that joint:
Agonist is deltoid,.. Antagonist is the latissimus dorsi. As the muscles contract across the shoulder joint it brings your shoulder upward into flexion as you push the ball the opposite happens and the antagonist becomes your deltoid and the latissimus dorsi becomes your Agonist.
Sternocleidomastoid
This muscle is one of the largest and most superficial cervical muscles.
Origin: anterior and superior manubrium and superior medial third of clavicle
Insertion: lateral aspect of mastoid process and anterior half of superior nuchal lin

Multiarticular
Joint crosses: crosses cervical joints

A... Bicep curl.. During a biceps curl, which flexes the arm, the triceps muscle stretches as the biceps contracts. The triceps, located in the posterior compartment of the upper arm, and the biceps, in the anterior compartment, act in opposition to each other
The agonist is not always the muscle that is shortening (contracting concentrically). In a bicep curl the bicep is the agonist on the way up when it contracts concentrically, and on the way down when it contracts eccentrically. This is because it is the prime mover in both cases.
A concentric contraction is a type of muscle contraction when the length of the muscles shorten while undergoing tension
Controlled to return to neutral after bicep curl..

Provide an example of an athletic movement of the shoulder, hip, and knee joint (3 total movements). For each example provide the agonist and antagonist muscles. Furthermore, explain what part of the movement the concentric or eccentric phase is. (15 points) Supinated Biceps Curl Example: Agonist: Elbow flexors (Biceps) Antagonist: Elbow extensors (Triceps). The lowering phase of the biceps is the eccentric phase and the upward phase is the concentric phase.
