How big is the gap between traditional martial arts and modern combat

How big is the gap? In my opinion, the general after two years of formal systematic training of sparring team members, enough to beat most of the practice of traditional martial arts for many years of "folk masters", and sometimes even the years of martial arts practice and combat effectiveness is inversely proportional to why? Practice short years of people are generally younger, depending on the strength of the body can carry more two, and those who readily "practice martial arts one or two decades", the older the tendency to be worse, after all, the fist is afraid of the young and strong.

Traditional martial arts why not, the reason is probably the following:

One, said more, less fight.

Many traditional martial arts learners, practice content is too limited to sets, stakes, etc., the real battle against the training of few and far between, even if there is a confrontation with the training, the standard is not as good as the modern combat such as Sanshou Muay Thai. A lot of teachers to learn the art of three years and five years do not see the opportunity to really move a few times with people, obviously unbearable, but thought it was very powerful, that accept Xu Xiaodong challenge Taiji Lei Gong is a typical, do not know the sky and the earth.

Two, the dragon and snake mixed, the wind is not right.

Traditional martial arts circle is keen on seniority, like to show off the history, either blowing each other, or each other to tear down the stage, bragging about more people, focus on martial arts less, countless fake masters fish eyes, trickery, and there are a few masters are willing to teach the real masters, always like to hide, the true sense of responsibility for the traditional martial arts are few and far between. Wing Chun masters challenge Xu Xiaodong, in fact, victory or defeat is still secondary, after losing, but also dead duck mouth hard, looking for excuses to deny, no martial artist style.

Three, the traditional martial arts concept of old-fashioned, backward training.

Compared with modern combat, traditional martial arts training is not systematic, learning efficiency is too low, wasting too much time on the basis of the difficult to get started, and a lot of terminology and nomenclature is made to be profound, misleading. Modern sports science has been from physics, chemistry, physiology and other aspects of many sports principles have been studied thoroughly, even down to the cellular level, and internal boxing is still using the concept of qigong to fool people.

And modern combat pay attention to scientific training, pay attention to the actual fight against, do not play flowery fist, technology is simple and direct, the theory is easy to understand, can help students adapt to the actual fight as soon as possible, a year of systematic training, the light of the actual combat sparring can play a dozen or even dozens of games, honed out of the individual dare to fight will fight, and the traditional martial arts at every turn, "the introduction of the first three years to stand on the pile! ", you stand pile three years, and others three years of actual combat, you can beat them is a ghost.
