Neutralizers
Neutralizers are muscles that oppose unwanted joint motions created by the prime mover and/or synergists, and/or muscles that prevent unwanted ancillary motion. For example, gluteus minimus, tensor fascia latae, anterior adductors (hip internal rotators) neutralize the external rotation force generated by the gluteus maximus during hip extension.
