Chi sao is very similar to the hubud-lubad drills of Eskrima, and looks somewhat like the push hands training of T'ai Chi Ch'uan.

 Wing Chun - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A more recent development is a subset of pre-defined leg sensitivity drills called "chi gerk" (sticking legs), which are performed in a manner similar to Luk Sao.
In some branches (most notably the Yip Man family) chi-sao drills begin with one-arm chi-sau (dan chi sao) which helps the amateur student to get the feel of the exercise.
Tense, stiff arms are less fluid and sensitive during trapping and chi sao.

 Wing Chun Kung Fu
Chi Sao is a specialized method of training which develops touch or contact reflexes and coordination of the limbs, while improving balance, close range focus of the eyes, and developing internal energy for striking at close range.
Chi Sao's side benefits include improvement of footwork for close range mobility, accuracy for striking and the ability to control an opponent's balance from the point of contact.
Although Chi Sao does not resemble fighting, the understanding of the application of force and technique gained through Chi Sao practice is invaluable and directly applicable to fighting.

Many chi sao techniques do not apply to actual combat, but, through these techniques, the practitioner will develop the fundamental skill of contact reflexes which is the key to victory in combat.
The other benefits of chi sao are, close distance coordination, focusing with the eyes, mobility, balance, timing, accuracy, control of the opponent's balance, and Chi power.
In chi sao this is a problem because any force coming towards the centerline will have to be forced away.

Although the "chi" in tai chi chuan does not have the same meaning or Chinese character as the "chi" that means internal energy, many practitioners claim training in the art does enhance the flow of the vital stuff in a student's body.
To enhance the flow, tai chi chuan students should ensure their body is relaxed and their mind is quiet, and remain aware of the heaviness of the abdomen, Lee says.
When the chi is coursing through the body, it provides equilibrium of the yin and yang energy, and health improves." When chi stops flowing or becomes unbalanced, disease results, and when chi stagnates in a certain area, you feel pain, he claims.

The central training technique is a drill called "Chi Sao" (kung fu sticking arms) which can be compared to a kind of close-range sparring in which the two participants keep their forearms in contact while searching out gaps in each others defence.
Years of experience in Chi Sao give the practitioner the arm sensitivity to be successful in combat as well as getting them used to being in close with an attacker.
This is why Chi Sao is used to train a Wing Chun kung fu practitioner to sense his opponent's hand position and probe for holes in his defense, from touch alone.

The student holding fook sao turns the "hooking hand" into a jut sao, the "jerking hand." He then delivers a vertical punch and the other student uses bon sao, the "wing arm," to stop the punch from striking him in the head.
Among those who've "played" chi sao long enough, sticky hands attributes translate directly to going around and through an opponent's guard to strike him or her.
Those who do not grasp the point of chi sao or who fail to understand the benefits of the attributes it develops in the long term often pan the "playing" of sticky hands as a waste of time.
