So, if we wantto understand the process and direction of social transformation and judge the socialtransformation’s success or failure, we must study the sports concept and way of life ofpeople. Sport life style for people more profound and comprehensive understanding ofChina social transition, provides a nice window and platforms.In the paper, with the reform and opening-up policy and social transformation asthe research background, the sports lifestyle of contemporary citizens as the basicobject of study, the transition to the public sports lifestyle as a clue, starting from thedaily life of the public level, combined with the historical and horizontal comparativeanalysis, we probe the transition and change of the public sports lifestyle.

It suggests that humans can according to their own subjective ideasorganize and manage the individual life. In other words, the sports is not only theembodiment of people’s subjectivity, but also the actual expression of human sociality.People is not only the main body but the conditions of the sports activities. People’sphysical need is the source of sports life style. In modern society, the needs for sportsare growing strong and diversified with the control of industrial technological civilization. Increasingly prominent social function of sports, became a basic means topromote the comprehensive development of human and the social benign operation.As a process of interaction, the formation of the public sports lifestyle is the resultof social structural factors and individual action factors’ dual influence. Combinedwith the background of social transformation, the transformation of social structure hasshaped concrete forms of public sports lifestyle, including public sports consciousness,sports need, sports consumption, sports practice and sports life. In addition, the socialtransformation also promotes the individual sports practice, further nurtures thepublic’s sense of participation in sports and sports habits, enhances the publicindividual’s sports subject consciousness, and accelerates the rapid development of citycommunity sports and mass sports.
