Reciprocal inhibition between neuron pairs is a long-standing model for the mechanism by which circuits generate rhythmic animal movement patterns. This review shows that this model mechanism can explain the origins of cyclic movements in six different preparations for which the neuronal circuits are available. The overall function of reciprocal inhibition, when combined with a variety of dynam...
