Body Mechanics for power.
I've been noticing, with some help from my buddy Rant, that you can get significant gains in power by segmenting the body when you move it, letting the top coil and then the hips follow.
His training comes from Kempo, but I think this is part of what I was missing from bagua.
It also seems very closely related to Taiji/Aikido principle of keeping the hand in front of your chest, and turning the hips for power.
I have a lot of work to ingrain this mechanic.
