Bengquan (Chinese: 崩拳; pinyin: Bēngquán; Wade–Giles: Peng1ch'uan2) is the third of five dynamics or fists in the art of xingyiquan.
Performing the five fists in this way, in sequence, is called wuxing or "Five Forms".
The strikes are unified with the forward, three-step motion of the body.
The legs, which are strengthened in standing exercises, santishi, are kept bent and use the compression and release of the long muscles.
This all combines to give bengquan a simple and straightforward power which utilises the entire body's momentum and mass.
