The functions of a fixator muscle is the stabalizing of the orgin of the prime mover so that the prime mover can act more efficiently. Fixators steady the proximal end of a limb while movements occurs at the distal end.

EX: The scapula is a freely movable bone that serves as the orgin for several muscles that move the arm. When the arm contracts the scapula must be held steady.

A fixator muscle is a muscle in body which moves to provide support for another part being in motion. An example of a fixator muscle can be your bicep when you raise your arms or thigh muscles when you are running.
