My IP/IT/IS experiences are

Results are

1. Got a clue for doing kokyuho/aikiage/or whatever it called
I confess I couldn't do that and got no clues though I've been doing aikido for many years.
2. Easy to stop or nullify nage's techniques though I'm not resisting that much. Fix my dive-bunny habit too.
3. Others grumble that I'm heavier than before.
4. Feel connected when nage/uke push/pull me instatntly.
5. Feel more stable and comfortable in seiza
6. Can detect whether nage/uke is solid or float.

Of course these results are not much helping me to apply techniques to other people. And I'm just an average pain-in-the-ass&hard-to-throw joe in the dojo.

But I believe this baby step is a starting point to get better in the future.
BTW thanks for sharing your results, nice to see some waypoints for us junior travellers on the road. Some resonate, maybe some don't or are red herrings too but apppreciated
