Balanced anatomy by Mr. Ajay Singh

A well thought out description of balanced structure by Mr. Ajay Singh. Take a read, maybe it helps you: “The key word is balanced structure that doesn’t need to be propped up by the lines, pushing a pulling by the hands, or widening the base by moving the legs apart. A good structure is a functioning structure that allows the dogs to move effortlessly in all gaits (not just trotting gait), allows the dogs to spring into movement instantly, allows the dogs to turn on a dime and stop, and allows them to leap effortlessly.

In other words, don't get carried away by health testing and lose track of your ultimate goal! This was the intent behind Hips ZW or the height ZW.
