fwiw, my training partner and i go for the more violently flavoured push hands, not unlike the chinese guys on the green matts in those clips. It's like sumo for skinny people with a little china na and takedowns! woot!
the others all sucked and rather badly too. Looked like they didn't understand the difference between push hands and listening energy drills and somehow mixed the two up and wound up with that shit they were doing.

hi tim,
here is a bit of my push hands practice. they way you practice may depend on your goals.
for me push hands is a "safe" way to practice, refine and discover fighting skills. i think you must also "spar" too.
how do you practice?
