Adduction and abduction refer to two distinct ways your body moves. Here's how to know the difference, and how to use both for an effective training plan.
Abduction is carried out by the deltoid and the supraspinatus in the first 90 degrees. From 90-180 degrees it is the trapezius and the serratus anterior. Adduction is carried out by the pectoralis major, latissimus dorsi, teres major and the subscapularis. Horizontal abduction and horizontal adduction of the shoulder (transverse plane)
Range of motion for the first CMC is 53° of flexion/extension, 42° of abduction/adduction, and 17° of rotation. [4] Planes and axes of movements. The thumb's MP and CMC joints abduct and adduct in a plane perpendicular to the palm, a movement also referred to as "palmar abduction."
Abduction is an anatomical term of motion referring to a movement which draws a limb out to the side, away from the median sagittal plane of the body. It is thus opposed to adduction . Upper limb
