Question

What are flexor and extensor muscles

Answer 1

Answer:

Hey dude....

Contracting your biceps exhibits flexion, i.e. it brings your forearm closer to your upper arm and decreasing the angle between the two. So, your biceps is described as a "flexor" muscle. The opposing muscle of a flexor is called the "extensor" muscle. Your triceps is an extensor.

Hope it helps you...!
