Answer:

Agonists

Step-by-step explanation:

Agonists are the muscles that perform most of the action in producing the movement. These muscles are found all over the body and cause or prevent movement when they are activated. For example during a push-up your biceps are contracting, allowing your arm to bend while your triceps are relaxing, therefore both are agonist muscles.
