5. © Folens 2009 FOR EDEXCEL 1.2.5 A healthy, active lifestyle and your skeletal system Adduction This movement brings part of the body towards the centre. Adduction is adding it to the body. Movement terminology 5

6. © Folens 2009 FOR EDEXCEL 1.2.5 A healthy, active lifestyle and your skeletal system Movement terminology 6 Adduction occurs in a butterfly swimming stroke.

7. © Folens 2009 FOR EDEXCEL 1.2.5 A healthy, active lifestyle and your skeletal system Movement terminology 7 Abduction This is the opposite action to adduction, where the limbs are moved away from the centre. A way to remember this is that when someone is kidnapped, they are abducted (taken away).

14. © Folens 2009 FOR EDEXCEL 1.2.5 A healthy, active lifestyle and your skeletal system Movement terminology 14 When a long jumper plants their foot for take-off, at the heel first action, they apply dorsi flexion.

15. © Folens 2009 FOR EDEXCEL 1.2.5 A healthy, active lifestyle and your skeletal system Extension This is the opposite of flexion and is when the angle increases between the bones at a joint. Movement terminology 15

16. © Folens 2009 FOR EDEXCEL 1.2.5 A healthy, active lifestyle and your skeletal system In the run up for a jump the long jumper takes off and extends the take-off leg to generate as much upward lift as possible. This is an example of extension at the hips. Movement terminology 16

17. © Folens 2009 FOR EDEXCEL 1.2.5 A healthy, active lifestyle and your skeletal system Rotation The angles do not change but the joint moves in a circular motion. The throwing action of the service in tennis and the bowling action in cricket or rounders demonstrates this type of movement. Movement terminology 17
