They are substantially predetermined sequences of techniques:
Long or short, they are a learning method of the basic dynamics of a martial art, a way to understand how it is possible to connect the various techniques (kicks, punches, etc.)

The truth is that in most cases, if with a timer we objectively look at how we truly spend our daily hours: it is easy to see how much we are wasting them.
A few examples of wasted time:
Watching our phone
Playing videogames

In martial arts every practice is important but each one has a specific goal
The study of Kung Fu can be a good choice for many reasons (peace, wellness, health, etc.) but if we truly want to learn to fight, our preparation must not be dispersive.
