I have been practicing martial arts for three years, and I have never understood the difference between traditional martial arts and modern martial arts.

Traditional Wushu is a kind of martial arts handed down from ancient China, while modern Wushu generally refers to modern fighting, such as Sanda, Taekwondo, Sanda and comprehensive fighting. There are great differences between these two forms of sports in today's society. Traditional Wushu takes routine as the main form of exercise, and the attack and defense is mainly based on breaking tricks. The advantage lies in its rich skills, including kicking, throwing and leaning. The disadvantage is that most people who practice traditional Wushu mainly focus on personal cultivation (fighting routines) and lack real antagonistic training and physical training. This is the transformation of the development of traditional Wushu, from a life-and-death fight to a national sports event. Many modern fights are created to adapt to the rules of boxing, such as Sanda and Jeet Kune Do. The main advantages are actual combat, more confrontational training and more physical training. The disadvantage is that some fighting techniques overdraw the body, such as Muay Thai, which lacks the means of health preservation like martial arts, and will be damaged over time.
