  Forward Stroking For Greater Efficiency- Speedskating Santa Barbara
What is novel is that you can push for an unexpectedly large range of angles around the forward direction and still maintain an efficiency in the 90% range (the angle between the applied force and the forward direction is twice the angle plotted here so this range is even greater than it appears).
The situation is the same in the double push where the forward push is handled with body shifts, rotations, or thrusts depending on style.
Because of this limitation the amount of forward push is not too great and is best used briefly -- for example as the termination of a standard sideways push to develop additional forward thrust (see drawings here).

 Yang Style Push Hands   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Within each category of push hands, there are certain hand forms and footwork which can be practiced alone; and also, the training of each push hands category leads to the basis of the next category of push hands.
Push hands not only can be a competitive activity for training and self-protection, but it can also invigorate the blood and muscles, strengthen the waist and kidneys, and prevent disease and promote longevity.
Push will be used to first dissolve the incoming pressing movement, followed by a forward pushing motion with the power of the waist.

 Push forward - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In mathematics, the push forward (or pushforward) of a smooth map F : M → N between smooth manifolds at a point p is, in some sense, the best linear approximation of F near p.
One can show that push forward of a composition is the composition of push forwards (i.e., functorial behaviour), and the push forward of a local diffeomorphism is an isomorphism of tangent spaces.
The push forward of F induces in an obvious manner a vector bundle morphism from the tangent bundle of M to the tangent bundle of N:

Let's take the positive direction to be forward and let F and f denote the components of those forces in the forward direction.
As you push forward on the downward pointing pedal, the trike really does move forward a bit and that pedal rises up.
That is, though the wheel and pedal both move forward, the pedal doesn't move quite as far forward as the wheel does.

 Pole-Push Angle in Classic Striding -- XC ski Roberts
These diagrams show how different angles of the pole and positions of the pole tip in the snow determine the "reactive" forces that either push the skier forward or lift the skier's body upward.
The action force on the pole is down and back, so the components of the "reactive" force are up and forward.
Forward is always good in classic stride, but upward can be good or bad -- good during the glide phase, bad during the kick phase.

 Backstroke - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The push phase consists of pushing the palm of the hand as far down as possible with the fingers pointing upward.
During the pull and push phase, the fingers of the hand can be slightly apart, as this will increase the resistance of the hand in the water due to turbulence.
This is easier to coordinate, and the peak speed during the combined pull and push phase is faster, yet the speed is much slower during the combined recovery.

 "Baker Panel To Avoid Calls for Peace Push - Forward.com"
Alterman, like all other committee-connected experts and sources contacted by the Forward, dismissed any Israeli concern of a sudden shift in American policy in the region in a way that would force Israel into an agreement it opposes.
Israel’s outgoing ambassador to the United States, Danny Ayalon, told the Forward that he does not foresee any shift in American policy during the final two years of the Bush administration.
A source close to the committee agreed that there are signs that Baker and Hamilton will propose engaging with Syria, but the source stressed that such an engagement would not necessarily touch on Israel or force Jerusalem to sit down and negotiate the future of the Golan Heights.

"From 2005 onwards, push to talk will become available for all Nokia phones." The push toward PTT technology is an example of market-making risk taking by the company, because push-to-talk tech is available today only from Nextel, Verizon and Vodafone in the United States.
But the calculated risk -- announced at the end of last year at the Mobility Conference in New York City -- also comes at a time when the market for cellular phones is experiencing slower growth than in the past, so it could be the key to future success for the company.
They are coming forward with new technologies, trying to combat Nokia's technological edge.
