The women's uneven bars started out when the men's parallel bars were adjusted so that one bar was high and one low with added supports to allow them to swing in a different direction than the bars were created for. Each Olympic cycle after women's gymnastics became an Olympic sport, the uneven bars were moved further and further apart until they began to resemble the men's high bar apparatus. Today, women's uneven bars are almost to the point of being to parallel high bars. Because of the added bar, women have had to become more proficient than most men when it comes to technical execution of basic and advanced skills on the Uneven Bars.

The gymnastics balance beam has no specific size, you have low beams and high beams ranging from 5'' to 48'' or 4' high. Maybe if you were a little more precise as to which or which kind of beam I could help.

If you are joining a gymnastics tumbling class then you should wear a shortsleeve leotard (found online at ten.o.com). Many people wear velvet shorts over their leotards.

If you are tumbling for cheerleading then you should wear a t-shirt with shorts and clean sneakers.

Always wear your hair in a pony tail.

You do a back hanspring with no hands with your hands by your side and pike over.

(This is very east but im a level 6 so ofcourse its easy but do this with a certified coach this is dangerous)

This is a different person.... Tigercub10, how is it more dangerous when you are being spotted? I mean, I still don't know how to da a back tuck, so I haven't experienced anything that's harder when you're being spotted. But I do Prep Op Silver, so I don't do that much of he formal skills that you would do in cumpulsory routines, so anyways, how is it harder with a coach?

The main types of energy involved in gymnastics are:

* Chemical energy, converting the food the athlete has consumed into muscle power and motion * Elastic potential energy in the springs of the apparatus and the gymnasts muscles * Gravitational energy when the gymnast is off the ground * Kinetic energy when the gymnast is in motion * Thermal energy, the heat the gymnast produces * Sound energy

A static balance is something you hold e.g. handtand

Most gymnasts don't wear any type of footwear while they are training or performing. Some gymnasts prefer to wear socks, or there're shoes available.

In artistic gymnastics you use a beam, bar, beam and floor and sometimes trampoline and vault. In Rhythmic gymnastics you use rope, ball, clubs, ribbon, hoop, and free (no equipment) all on a floor. # Uneven Bars # High Bar # Parallel Bars # Rings # Balance Beam # Floor Exercise # Pommel Horse # Vault Accessories:

# Chalk # Grips # Leotards # Warmups # tape # music (for floor routines) # Spring board (for the vault) # Springs (to go in the Spring Board) # Mats # Braces (knee, ankle, etc.)

Balance is important in Gymnastics because there are lots of skills that require balancing. Especially the BALANCE beam, the gymnast is standing on a 4 inch beam and perfomring skills. they need to maintain their balance to stay on the beam to perform their routine. they also need to balance on the floor sometimes, like when they are doing handstands or skills on their toes, like turns.

If you lied on your application then it is doubtful that you would be covered by the gyms insurance policy in case of an accident.

If the proprietors of the gym discover you are under age it is likely that you would be barred. There is no guarantee that you would have your fee refunded.

Most people think of jumping forward when doing a front flip. Instead, concentrate on jumping up instead, and throw your arms forward for momentum. So long as you jump high enough and spin quickly enough, your butt should be safe.

Im a 12 year old gymnast and i am in level 7 but it doesnt matter what level u are at as long as u are having fun.

if u are from england and in squad the level you should be at is level 4 or 3

When you start it, you should swing your arms back while going into a sitting position and then jump off your feet while swinging your arms back.

lots and lots and lots you can always combine 2 moves together to make a new one e.g. bridge walkover into splits i dont know if that's a real move but if it is, i didnt know and i thought of i myself.

Gymanstics is a very popular sport.. it is done almost everywhere in the world.. it is a western sport however and you may not find it out in the bush of very rural areas

The same way in you would in dance.

1. You start with your desired foot in front and one hand in front and other to the side.

2. Lean forward on your extended foot to stand on you one foot. Place your arms in middle crown.

3. Turn twice.

4. Step in front with you free foot. Place arm wherever they finish (Its Optional)

Note* Do these steps quickly to avoid falling on your face! lol.

Technically yes. They tend to have a mixture of sports in one class, so I suppose it could be called a sport. But it isn't because they use different sports to teach you Physical Education. So yes and no.
