Description
Yong Jiang, Wenyang Su, Tiezhu Niu, and Lei Ma review Sanda training for young athletes in a paper dated 2026. Sanda is a Chinese combat sport mixing punches, kicks, throws, and holds, built from traditional kung fu and modern army methods. It became a formal sport in the late twentieth century.
The review gathers studies from 2015 to late 2025 on Sanda and close combat sports. It covers gains in fitness and mental toughness, then turns to the sport's common injuries. Prevention drills, recovery habits, vitamins, and rest all get attention. The authors also compare Sanda with other martial arts for long-term growth of young athletes. Their goal is a training path that builds skill without costing health.
