Decreasing the angle between two articulating bones at joint, e.g. bending at the knee so the tibia comes towards the femur when preparing to kick a football.
Increasing the angle between two articulating bones at a joint, e.g. straightening the elbow when lowering the weight in a dumb-bell curl.
An excessive movement where the angle between two articulating bones increases beyond its normal range of motion.
