The adductor longus is a prime adductor and medial rotator of the femur. It is also an assistant mover for flexion at the hip.
Therefore the antagonist muscles are the abductors (apposing adduction), the lateral rotators (apposing medial rotation) and the extensors (apposing flexion).
Primary Abductors: Gluteus Medius and Gluteus Minimus
Assistant Abductors: Tensor Fasciae Latter, Sartorius
Primary Lateral Rotators: Glutteus Maximus, Deep Later Rotator group
Assistant Lateral Rotators: Sartorius, Iliopsoas
Primary Extensors: Hamstrings, Gluteus Maximus
Assistant Extensors: Adductor Magnus (upper fibres)

If a prime mover produces flexion its antagonist will be?
Extension
How can people measure suppleness?
Flexibility is measured by the range of motion. The range of movement is measured by using a goniometer: hip flexion, hip extension, hip adbuction, hip adduction, shoulder adduction, shoulder fexion, shoulder extension, elbow flexion/extension, and knee flexion/extension.mile run
What joints are used in the up phase of a push up?
That is flexion and extension at shoulder joint.
Joint range of motion can be assessed with?
1. Goniometer 2. Sit and reach test 3. Shoulder flexibilty test 4. Trunk extension test
What are flexors and extensors in the upper arm?
FLEXORSBiceps brachia- Primarily forearm supination, but also functions in elbow flexion, shoulder flexion, and shoulder adductionChoracobrachialis- Shoulder flexion, shoulder adductionBrachialis- Elbow flexionEXTENSORSTriceps Brachii- Powers elbow extension
What is the agonist antagonist and synergist for tricep extension?
Antagonist: lats Agonist: Abdominals
What is muscle group is the antagonist of shoulder adduction?
the antagonist of adduction is the pectoralis major
If a prime mover produces flexion its antagonist will be?
Extension
Muscle that adducts shoulder and causes extension of the shoulder joint?
The muscles which produce shoulder extension are: Latissimus Dosi & Pectoralis Major.
What is the agonist and antagonist of the rotation of the shoulder?

What is the antagonist in reverse shoulder fly?
[pectoralis major
What is antagonist for hip extension?
hip extensor, gluteus maximus
Shoulder muscle that is the antagonist of the trapezius?
Shoulder adductors. Abduction means moving away from the median plane of the body and adduction means moving towards the median plane of the body.
What muscle group is the primary mover of shoulder and elbow extension?
Shoulder extension is controlled by: Long head of the triceps, the last, and the teres major
Muscle that adducts the shoulder and causes extension of the shoulder joints?
latissimus dorsi
What are the agonist and antagonist in a triceps extension?
Agonist - Pectoralis Major, Triceps Brachii Antagonist - Bicep Brachii, Latissimus Dorsi
Outward extension of the shoulder bone is the?
acromion
