You should likely consider that the contact with the arm/torso should be substantial after the ball is blocked cleanly up top in order for you to have a foul. Many camp instructors where teaching 80% ball 20% player should be let go a few years ago. Something to think about.
This helps a lot. Funny that I never got any insight on this during my training over the summer. It has just been a lingering question that I've been feeling my way through.
