Which muscle is the antagonist for flexion at the spine?
rectus abdominis
Antagonist Muscles The most well-known ab muscle is the rectus abdominis, which is the muscle that you see when someone has a “six-pack.” This muscle runs from the bottom of the ribs down into the front of the pelvis. It acts to flex the spine, which is the opposite movement of the back extensor muscles.
