But let's get behind us by observing ourselves with a front view let's see how a line of force must materialize between the foot outside the curve and the corresponding shoulder.
I remember that the foot and the shoulder talk to each other continuously, the shoulder must not move away from the foot on pain of loss of balance, so let's do this simple exercise.
Let's position ourselves diagonally on a slight slope and go for a wide step towards the valley, I take the step, and I go to get balance suddenly, fixing it with the foot and ankle, the shoulder must be above the foot to give balance, if the shoulder does not go over the foot you will remain behind with the risk of sliding inwards losing your balance, imagine this breach in the curve what the consequences would be !!!
