This was amazing.This always confuses me a lot but now I know!!! Thanks to this video👍🏻”holding a soup—>supination!”

"radius" needs an antenna = thumb! that helped me when I first learnt anatomy!

شكراً هوايه يا شريف بالعباس انت شريف الله يخليك بجاة الحسين♥️♥️♥️♥️😞

[terequa]

your channel is amazing thank u so much

[sg-hu]

the word "deviation" always confuses me. I always think ulnar "deviation" means you're moving away (deviating) from the ulna. The definition of deviation being "departing from an established course."

[Bill-uocm]

The verbs for supination and pronation are obviously supinate and pronate.

But how do you express radial deviation and ulnar deviation as a verb?

[shaunalvar]

Question: is radial deviation considered abduction only in the anatomical position?

[brunoknapp]

I’m feeling pain with delicate movement (stronger when wake up) but no lack of strength and tenderness on styloid process of radius and thumb finger basis WITH ulnar deviation of wrist caused by swelling in this area, from 2 months ago when I made calisthenics ignoring the pain, one week after an mild accident pushing my left hand against a unexpected locked wood gate. What it can be?

[nervz]

hey just curious. What muscles do I use when I radial and ulnar deviate?

[esreveRGaming]

I can roll my ulna and radius over each other and cause my wrist to make a loud crack on command as often as I want. Tell me I'm not weird and someone else has the ability to do so.

[cumarcalicumar]

i have problem for supination
how i can correct sir plz make me video 🥺

[sarahkamal]

Don't u think u explained ulnar and radial deviation wrong
It should be in accordance with anatomical position of body
