Force is the strength of endurance of muscles like athletes can sustain weight.  Responsive force is the rush of muscles, tendons, bones, and vitality.  Typical examples of responsive force are:
- Muscular responsiveness:  shrinking, pushing, magic art to invulnerability (by flexing one’s muscles so hard under an incantation that no knife can cut into them) when fighting against movement (of the body in physical training).
- Mental responsiveness:  rebounding the joints, stretching out, and releasing them like the action of whipping, etc.
Note:  During the time of practising opening responsiveness, remember to keep the teeth firmly in contact to avoid deafening and headache.
When drilling responsiveness, it is a good idea to practice in such a way that your body acquires a sustaining force, for when you open responsiveness the blasting power may affect the blood vessels.  The trainee should drill the methods of reinforcement of the endurance of the body by the methods of intra-respiratory training.
