Artistic Gymnastics | Gymnastics
Artistic gymnastics include all of the events that we see when we think about the sport, including the uneven parallel bars, the horizontal bar, the men's vault, the freestyle floor exercises, the rains, and the parallel bars. Outdoors, the most high profile events are usually the track and field competitions, including the 3000 m steeplechase and the 400 m hurdles. Indoors, the most high-profile televised Olympic events are the artistic gymnastics. The Olympic artistic gymnastics events have produced some of the most famous names in sports, including Kerri Strug and Nadia Comaneci. While sports like the shot put and Greco-Roman wrestling Tatar athletes that are strong and powerfully built, artistic gymnasts are generally small and light. Artistic gymnastics favor women who are short and light, with leaps that give them high vertical jumps. In the men's competitions, many of the events require incredible upper arm strength, which requires years of upper body training.
Artistic Gymnastics: artistic gymnastics are a series of several tumbling events that male and female athletes both participate in. There are some events that are exclusive to the male gymnasts, including the rings, parallel bars, and pommel horse. There are some events that are just for the female stars, including the uneven parallel bars, balance beam, and vault. Though all athletes use tremendous upper body and lower body strength to compete in all events, in general the female events feature lower body strength and the male events feature upper body strength. For example, the men's rings is an event where the male athlete uses his arms to perform various flips and balancing acts while hanging from two rings. On the women's balance beam, athletes perform a series of flips and maneuvers on a thin beam using tremendous balance and strength in their legs.
Performing the Events: men compete in six events: the horizontal bar, parallel bars, vault, rings, and the pommel horse. Women compete in four events in the following order: vault, uneven parallel bars, balance beam, and floor exercises. The floor exercises is the most freestyle and creative event, as the gymnast picks their own routine and performs it with choreographed music. Men and women usually compete in the same complex at the same time. The apparatus and floor mats are all raised on a podium. Throughout the athlete's routines, nonperforming players and coaches must remain off the podium. Other elements on and around the podium include a platform and bowl filled with magnesium powder, which the ad elites spread over their hands to prevent them from slipping on the rings, bars, and beams.
Many of the competitions are team events. In team competitions, the winning team is determined by totally the best scores obtained in each event. At this type of event, the top 36 gymnasts qualify for the multiple individual competitions, in which the top athletes are determined by their individual total scores in each event.
Scoring four individual events are based on the level of difficulty of the moves attempted by the gymnast coupled with their degree of execution. Gymnasts give the judge is a list of moves that they will be performing so that they will be prepared to break down the execution of each move. Typically, six judges scored each event. Two of the judges then add up a starting score, which is based on the execution of all of their cumulative moves. Then the other judges take away points from the starting score based on mistakes made during the routine.
