一、力

在太极拳中，力是指体内的力量和能量，是技击运动中的根本要素。它分为直力、横力、虚力和实力的不同形式，其中直力的表现外露，而横力的秘密隐藏于内。未受过训练的人，使用的是拙劣的蛮力，这种力量缺乏灵活性和突然爆发的能力。而经过专门训练的太极拳家，则能够运用圆满实沉重的整体内劲，这是一种经过千锤百炼后形成的威力无比之劲。

二、功力

功力的概念源自自身原有力量，即本能。这三方面力量——大小、方向与作用点—are difficult to produce flexible changes, and their effectiveness in attack and defense is limited. To achieve the most ideal technique force and optimal striking effect, Tai Chi emphasizes the direction and point of application of power, as well as control over one's own body. It also emphasizes strengthening internal energy training on a soft foundation.

三、劲力

Liguidity is an essential part of Tai Chi's push hands practice. This "liguidity" refers to a kind of elastic liguidity that combines flexibility with concentration and smooth movement. Such liguidity requires not only tight muscle contraction but also sensitive feelings and fast reaction times, along with proper use of techniques for coordinated action among muscle groups.

四、关系之间

In Tai Chi push hands competition, all tactics depend on both "power" (force) and "technique". Although they seem opposite at first glance, they are mutually dependent; neither can be isolated from the other. Power represents innate quality while technique reflects learned method. Quality is natural yet may be enhanced through practice; method must be acquired through study or training.

The relationship between power (force) & technique in martial arts has been discussed by ancient masters who said: "One force defeats ten techniques", which means that brute strength can overcome skillful moves; however this does not mean there was no skill involved in its use nor does it imply that a skilled practitioner could defeat even more powerful opponents without any skill at all." The reverse principle applies too: "One clever move breaks a thousand pounds," indicating that finesse can prevail over raw strength provided certain conditions are met.

Ultimately the balance between power & technique determines victory or stalemate in combat situations - whether one side outclasses another by sheer might or dexterity alone depends on individual aptitude & experience combined with mastery over skills taught through continuous practice under experienced instructors' guidance until perfected into true mastery reflecting unity within oneself leading to harmony outside self thereby transcending limitations imposed by nature itself ultimately achieving spiritual enlightenment known as 'Chi'.
