Even in the 16th century they knew this.

Construction and forceTM are just methods to get students to think about form and gesture.

If you are going to draw anything 3 dimensional believably you inherently think in terms of sides. There aren't tons of pages of old masters drawing boxes or doing gesture stickmen but they definitely thought in terms of gesture and form.
When I identify the ends of the thorasic arch, I am thinking in terms of sides, I am seeing the corners of a box of the rib cage. I am identifying front and side planes with anatomical landmarks.
Same as when I mark the iliac crest I am thinking in terms of sides, I am seeing the box shape of the pelvis. I am prioritizing my markmaking to communicate 3d form to the viewer.

When I consciously avoid symmetry and design my lines to curve in aid of an action line or flow through the anatomy, contrary to what I might actuall see on the model, I am thinking in terms of gesture.

I don't have to draw an actual box manakin underdrawing or the line of action/forceTM arrows to think about form and gesture.

The old masters definitely thought in form and gesture, they were obviously inspired by real life and the human body but they simplified, abstracted and made design decisions to capture a clearer communication of the figure and its story/action than even a photograph could show you.
