Also, the left (turning) hand could be used to deflect an incoming strike (right hand) , then switching contact points (i.e. left hand under opps arm, and back hand pulling opps arm) to split and stretch the opps arm out, and/or employ the arm spiral to shoulder throw or takedown.

Your hand describes a circle inside your center, and it goes back out in zuan. Your right foot advances.

That's the one I'm talking about as well. when you pull, you use your shoulder to strike the elbow joint.
