Generally, the more you exercise and bend a joint, the stronger it gets. Exercise helps strengthen the muscles that help support the joint, so you are less likely to get injured. Bending a joint also helps to circulate the synovial fluid which transports nutrients within the joint.

Does synovial fluid become more thicker with as movement at the joint increase?

Why do you have a gliding joint?
This joint allows for slight movement. A good example are most of the spinal vertebrae. A person with more movement would be rather unstable.

What are the three types of muscles and what is the movement for each muscle?
This can be answered on several different levels, but let me take the simpliest.Major types of muscles:Skeletal - associated with bones - see more info below.Cardiac - muscle of the heart specializing in electrical communicationViseral or Smooth - lines all tubes and has the movement called peristalsisSkeletal Muscle movement associated with diarthritic joints: Hinge Joint - movement is extension or flexionCondyloid Joint - movement is pronation or supinationBall & Socket Joint - abduction & adduction are the first of many movements.Pivot Joint - movement is rotationAnd the list goes on. . . .
Why is the hip joint stronger than the shoulder joint?
The hip joint is a weight bearing structure and is therefore designed differently to allow controlled movement and yet retain strength and stability. The Shoulder in contrast is designed mainly for a range of movement far beyond the hip still controlled but not as stable and as strengthened as the hip

What causes a joint to move?
Joints don't have the ability to move. Joints are where two or more bones meet. One end of muscle attaches to the bone and the other end of the muscle stretches cross the joint and attaches to the bone on the other side of the joint. Muscles work in pairs, so that when one muscle contracts (the only movement that muscle can make), the other of the pair relaxes which causes movement at the joint when the bone is pulled by the muscle.
What is a joint and what is it's purpose?
A joint is the intersection between two or more bones. Joints are essential for accommodating movement and rigidity in our skeletal system. There are several types of joints (e.g., ball in socket) that allow for different types of movement.
