I agree with your idea about the waist in Bagua and how legs and arms can do two things.
is the correct answer IMO. no need to say =INTERNAL or not or whatever. Theres tons of ways to look at this but the easiest might be to go look at a boxers back, and then look at their arms. It's the arms that are powering the punches...somatai wrote:they play a supporting and guiding role, but should not do the bulk of the work, the movement of the arms ultimately should tie into the more global pattern of extension that occurs through the whole posterior chain....but keep moving howver you like

Wondering if you use or recommend using horse stance or variations as a periodic test or static training to open the kua or if do not bother with these exercises because form or circle walking is sufficient.
I am mainly doing simple squats every so often, no low stance holding type work except for some static bridges on the ground and occasional yoga that has stuff like warrior 1, 2, etc. Surely not enough, though.
