Physiokinetics...is that even a real word?

I have been doing some reading up on Physiokinetics (essentially the science of how the human body works). Its quite interesting to analyze the human body structure and realize its true strengths and weakness. To me, its the very foundation of martial arts, all techniques should be based on the structure and mobility of the human body.
One chapter dealt only with breathing and correct posture. I almost skipped reading just because..well, I thought I had breathing and standing figured out.
Like anything you want to perfect, attention to detail is critical, not only that, sometimes we assume we have covered the basics enough to move on until you realize there is more detail in those basics.
Breathing , posture, strength and stability in your stance have far more to offer when you pick it apart from a geometrical, biological and physics point of view.
Don't get me wrong, I didn't wake up a scientist this morning, I have just begun to realize why I move the way I do and where I need to make changes to make my techniques more efficient and effective.
I have a feeling,however, correcting and perfecting this "older" body type will be a long uphill battle!
