Oct 16, 2019 at 16:55 comment added C. Lange @Zheer -- the terms interchange. During a bicep curl, the biceps are agonist, the triceps are antagonist. During a tricep extension, the triceps are agonist and the biceps and antagonist. I think I get what you're saying though, an exercise that works half of your muscles; one from each pair? If there were it would still be classified as a compound exercise. Although nothing comes to mind I'm sure you could make up an "exercise" that did -- sort of like barbell man-makers -- or a crazy superset but that feels like cheating.

Oct 16, 2019 at 6:49 comment added Zheer Are there any exercises that can engage all of your antagonist or agonist muscles, one of them at a time?
