Not in "movement" relative to the torso is a common foul (or incidental).
Excessive is slinging them around vigorously....which becomes intentional or flagrant upon contact depending on the degree.
Don't get hung up on the word but look at all the descriptions of what they want called.
See slide #19 of this year's NFHS presentation....it shows what they mean by movement....the graphics used as an example show a player who's body doesn't turn but the arms do to demonstrate movement.

As usual...Well said.
