Five bows issue together

There is the saying of “five bows issue together(五弓齐发 wǔ gōng qí fā)” in Xingyiquan.
Five bows are the two arms, two legs, and torso which are associated with the nine sets of joints to form the kinetic chain of Xingyiquan. I think this is a useful concept in issuing power in the five element fists.
