I have been researching lateral spinal tilt where knee flex is involved. If you have the book, part of your answer is covered in 7-16 Knee Action, second paragraph, "The proper amount of Knee Bend is determined at Impact Fix." Hopefully others will provide additional insight considering the body position "variable" in Impact Fix.

The current issue of Golf Illustrated has an article by Tom E. Stickney II (TGM certification) who references TGM and comments on knee flex as it relates to a shoulder turn perpendicular to the spine (10-13-C).
