At the First Tai Chi Master Seminar held in Chengdu, Sichuan Province in Dec. 1986, the three state units, Sichuan Chengdu Physical Culture College, Sichuan Provincial Scientific Research Institute for Physical Culture and Liberation Army Scientific Research Institute Sichuan Office, tested muscle in its normal state and during the use of explosive force in Chen-style Tai Chi Routine Ⅱ . Master Chen Xiaowang, was tested by electroencephalogram, electrocardiogram and electromusclegram, the results were that Chen-style Tai Chi’s exercise amount and intensity are stronger and return to normal states more quickly than other exercises. In the electromusclegram test, it took only 0.015 of a second, for muscle, to return to its normal, relaxed state from a tensed state. So Chen-style Tai Chi can generate incredible speed and power which, of course, is what most practitioners are looking for.By relaxation in the spiral part of Chen-style Tai Chi, you can naturally use three kinds of force: permeating force, dissolving force and penetrative force.
