flexion and extension
no it's abduction and adduction
Apologies for the confusion. You are correct. The motion of lifting your arms towards the sky and then lowering them to your sides involves abduction (lifting the arms away from the body) and adduction (bringing the arms back down towards the sides of the body). Thank you for pointing that out.
