    Interestingly its harder to do with the chin down . What moves the shoulders is the opposite shoulder, chin down tightens the psosses stops the turn as it should be plus the psosses engages the groin, cant win

    so if you get hit on the botton with the chin tucked in, you're in essence going to feel it in your groin?

    No with the chin down, it stops the muscles that work the shoulders, from working, as they already have a response from the head, it changes the biomechanics of what you are attempting.

    so you would keep your chin up? or can you lower the chin by sinking your stomach into your hips thus collapssing down bringing the chin down without lowering it and bringing the elbows in tighter as well? just curious what stance you would advocate

    Chin in not Down, gives better Oral stability, therefore better nueromuscular balance. Makes everything work as it should, you dont block any pathways of energy. Or movement to stop do.

    What's the view, should the hips rotate the same amount as the shoulders, with the front leg bending slightly to allow that rotation?

    On its own, the hip cant move. There lies the problem, its a biomechanical impossability. What moves the hip is the backfoot moving the in the same direction as the fist. Without losing drive, a good way of learning the technique, as you are throwing the right imagen theres someone behind you, about to shove a red hot poker, up your arse . It gives you the ability to control the coxxys for stability with the head.
