I read the description to be that the upper arms are pointed directly away from the body (with the elbows out) and the forearms are folded back in, toward the chest.

I see the I Dream of Jeanie pose, with arms out from the shoulders, arms crossed with hands on opposite biceps...although Barbara Eden wasn't in an unnatural squat. But what part of the arm that is out isn't really important, because by rule ANY PART being extended other than vertical is illegal if contact hinders an opponent, which is the entire purpose of a screen.
