As the ATP binds to the head of the myosin during the muscle contraction cycle, the myosin head would start detaching from actin. Each myosin contains a binding site for actin and a binding site for ATP. Hope this answers the question.

Muscle contraction uses energy from hydrolysis of ATP. After ATP binds to a myosin head, it is hydrolyzed to ADP and Pi. What happens after the bound Pi is released?
