In the next two photos, I show one way that press is used. It is used in push hands by slowly getting closer to your partner until you squeeze them into a vulnerable place.

In a self-defense situation, you could react to a punch by deflecting it and stepping closer to your advancing opponent (Photo 7-19).

When you close in on your opponent, he suddenly finds himself with no room to counter anything you do (Photo 7-19). In other words, he's toast.

Push

Push is also called An (pronounced "On" or "Ahn"). It is a downward pressure that can be applied as a push. But a push does not tell the whole story. The energy of An can be achieved without a violent push, by a downward pressure that comes from "Down" energy, which is a relaxed sinking of your weight, letting gravity, ground and peng do the work.
