Supination Of Hand Image
Pronation and supination of the hand: Anatomy and biomechanics Proper functioning of the hand relies on its capacity to rotate and point the palm upward (i.e. supination) or downward (i.e. pronation) when standing up with the elbow in 90° flexion.
The motion of supination turns the palms anteriorly or superiorly to the supine (face-up) position. Another way of thinking about supination is how someone would move their hands to look at their palms or to hold a bowl of soup.
