Why can't Chinese martial arts be practical?

While there are many reasons for this result, such as the commercialization of martial arts, playing commercial matches and what not, keen on the aesthetics of the set, etc.. But I think the most serious problem is two, the first is the basic skills are not firm, the second is the lack of practical training. If you have seen the current Chinese traditional martial arts and foreign boxing exchanges of actual combat video people should be able to see that the Chinese traditional martial arts will lose the main reason is the lack of power and too many superfluous movements lead to the whole body is broken these two points. Why is there a lack of power? Not because of the dumbbells less lift, because there is no root, Chinese martial arts why stand horse stance, bow stance, is required to stand root, waist horse solid, waist horse solid hand even if the power is not big also have a support, this is the most basic theory of martial arts, now the players although the power is not small, but the waist horse is not firm, once attacked by the fierce attack on the frame immediately scattered, the rest is more than who is attacking the big attack, attacking the fast speed, this is also the main content of the Western martial arts. is also the main content of the Western martial arts, but the Chinese are very smart, know that the Orientals are smaller, must be in the waist and legs under the effort to be able to take advantage of the technical combat, but now practicing the traditional martial arts have a few basic solid?

Basic solid after the actual combat practice, to learn to adapt to various types of various angles of attack, which requires you to have a certain amount of power and speed, after all, can not completely rely on the waist and legs, at this point in the Hongquan in the Iron Thread Boxing is very special, not only to exercise the horse stance, the special techniques can be done without relying on equipment (auxiliary still have, the iron circle) will be able to the arm muscle Static training, and in the application of the ten-shaped fist, Tiger Crane Double Shaped Fist is more focused on the use of moves, so the founder of the Hong Quan in the creation of routines I think is very practical and scientific, but now there are still people who can fully understand the connotation of the routines and hard workout it?

But in the past, the practice of traditional martial arts in the actual combat is also quite prominent, like Huo Yuanjia, Han Mu Man beat foreigners, we all know the story, I will cite two examples of taijiquan, one is Dong Yingjie, one is Zheng Manqing, are Yang Chengfu's disciples, Dong Yingjie went to Thailand to teach boxing every time there are Thai fighters door-to-door challenge Dong Yingjie is a hand on a Thai boxer fell out of ten feet, Zheng Manqing, even in his later years can easily be used to teach boxing, but also in the future, the Thai boxer is a good example. Even in his later years can easily beat the foreign young boxer, but in those years in the Chinese martial arts world Dong Yingjie and Zheng Manqing is not the strongest, when practicing Xingyiquan or Bagua Palm also have such a master, only not today.
