Those of you who subscribe to my website at http://www.leewedlake.com/ and read the articles in the memebr section have a new one. Sorry it's late but I've been focused on KenpoTV.  This one is on the idea that what works for you can work against you. Here's an excerpt.

Let’s talk about posture or alignment. We know that when we work against an opponent we are trying to affect or control their alignment. We want them off-balance. We “break their waist”; we change their alignment through disturbance or impact. We need to get their head out of line with their hips to the front, back or sides. That changes the available levers the body needs to accomplish certain actions like punching, kicking, grappling and lifting. When using impact it also causes pain so they are thinking about something else and less likely to do what they want. This is the very reason we teach student to stand and move a certain way. It keeps that necessary alignment to allow the power delivery and control we want.
