Bending the elements present in one's body in order to make it move a certain way would disrupt the movements required to move them around in the first, it is ultimately a self defeating exercise.

To bend the "lightning" coursing through one's nervous system would undoubtedly disrupt the body's functioning, introducing more energy into it... you'll need to refer to Iroh's lecture.
