flexion and extension
Actions brought about by flexion and extension?
These terms used in physiology refer to actions that occur at a joint in the body. Flexion usually refers to the part away from the body being brought toward the midline of the body while extension usually refers to the part away from the body being moved away. As an example when the hand is brought toward the face, flexion occurs at the elbow and when the hand is moved away from the face, extension occurs at the elbow.

What is a good cure for injured elbow caused by weight lifting?
Elbow injuries while weight-lifting usually occur if you hyper-extend your elbow during dumbbell reps. Hyper-extension of the elbow is when you stretch your elbow joint beyond it's normal range of motion (Eg, moving your elbow all the way down on a dumbbell curl). To counteract it, just bend your elbows inward slightly while lifting. After you've already sustained an elbow injury, rest it for a few days before you weight train again.
