- Shoulder, hip--ball & socket--**greatest range of motion
- Elbow--hinge joint-allows medial, lateral, flexion and extension.
- Knee--modified hinge--allows for only flexion & extension
- Wrist--condyloid or ellipsoid joint--allows hyper extend, lateral & medial extension. (medial toward, lateral away)
- Ankle--hinge joint-allows medial, lateral, flexion & extension
