i've got bloodsong's book. is this the info you were looking for? p.159, Initial pose, IK favoring, memorizing "The other reason for posing the figure is the Favored IK Angles.... To get your limbs to bend properly when IK is on, you should bend them slightly (3-5 degrees is plenty) in the direction they are supposed to bend. Your thigh, for example, should bend forward and the shin bend back. Then, when the IK is applied, the limb will tend to continue bending towards these favored angles.... The Favored IK angle works with the initial pose, or with the current state of the limbs when the user turns it on. It is not dependant on the memorized state of the figure."
