How the model is used in teaching
Muscles can only pull, never push, so movements that go both ways need muscles working in pairs. At the elbow, the biceps contracts to bend the arm while the triceps relaxes; to straighten the arm, the triceps contracts and the biceps relaxes. This arrangement is called an antagonistic pair, with one muscle acting as the agonist and the other as the antagonist.
- Set the model on its base with the forearm straight and point out the biceps at the front of the upper arm and the triceps at the back.
- Bend the elbow slowly and watch how the flexible biceps shortens while the triceps is stretched.
- Straighten the elbow again and note the reverse change in the two muscles.
- Trace each muscle from its origin to its insertion and relate the insertion point to the movement it produces.
