By means of literature data and logic analysis and expert interview, the authors summarized Chinese Wushu journal development restricting factors. External restricting factors are unsatis-factory Wushu development, lack of Wushu development policies, separation of emerging media, changes of audi-ence’s sports interests and needs. Internal restricting factors are deviation between journal contents and reader needs, identical journal column settings, content homogenization, journal normalization, low degree of standardiza-tion, poor incoming manuscript quality, and incomplete journal distribution channels.
