1. Body Movements Lab Activity
Study these slides. Then work with a partner to make these motions and movements

2. Angular Movement – know – (important slide!)
Flexion — bending movement that decreases the angle of the joint
Extension — reverse of flexion; joint angle is increased
Dorsiflexion and plantar flexion — up and down movement of the foot
Abduction — movement away from the midline
Adduction — movement toward the midline
Circumduction — movement describes a cone in space

3. Gliding Movement – know (be able to identify)

4. Angular Movement – know (be able to identify)

5. Angular Movement – know (be able to identify)

6. Angular Movement – know (be able to identify)

7. Rotation – know (be able to identify)
The turning of a bone around its own long axis
Examples
Between atlas and axis
Hip and shoulder joints

8. Special Movements – know (be able to identify)
Supination and pronation
Inversion and eversion
Protraction and retraction
Elevation and depression
Opposition
