DEFENCE AGAINST THE STEP-FORWARD FRONTAL PUSH
As the initiator steps his back leg forward for the frontal push, the responder steps his front leg backward to neutralize this long range attack. Besides the footwork, body-movement and hand-technique are also involved. This corresponding retreat, i.e. stepping back against stepping forward, and gliding back against gliding forward, is for the purpose of practice.
