Gymnastics

Coaches want to see a gymnast who will push him-/herself. The most important thing - even more important than competency - is a capacity to work hard. Out of hard work and focus comes the competency. Part of the measure of focus and determination is good form. Basically, if you can't do a handstand all the way up, you should at least do one with straight legs and arms and pointed toes. You want to show that you care about every little thing.

More pragmatically, strength, flexibility, and speed are also important. Build these out of your determination.

This is theoretically infinite, but the most difficult vaults being performed today are the Yurchenko with 2.5 twist, or Amanar--round-off onto the springboard, back handspring onto the horse, 1.5 flip with 2.5 twists--and the Cheng, named after Cheng Fei--Yurchenko entry with half twist onto the horse, 1.5 flip with 1.5 twists (Rudi). Both vaults were performed by Cheng Fei and Hong Un-Jong at the Beijing Olympics, and others such as Shawn Johnson, Jiang Yuyuan, Jade Barbosa, Jordyn Wieber, Simona Amanar, and Monica Rosu have performed the Yurchenko 2.5. Though it is rumored that 2008 Olympic Vault Champion Hong Un-Jong of North Korea is capable of a Yurchenko triple twist, she has never performed it in international competition.

No definatley not! I am one day away from being 13 and i have done gymnastics for about 3 years. I'm not very advanced so I take a class for girls older then 9 who are beginners and there a lot of kids that age. In fact, most of them are. Gymnastics is a great sport for any age and since you're a beginner there's lots of stuff to learn. Gymnastics will help you in strength, flexibility, and grace, all of which are very important. Don't be afraid because of your age. Your goal should just be to get better and better and just be the best you can be. Try a beginning class at a nearby gym with kids your age in it, most gyms have one. Remember, you might not be very good at first but don't let that discourage you, it is worth it because it is so fun! Good luck, I know you will love it!

Weightlifting and aeroics are by far the best. Cheerleaders need to be strong in order to do gymnastics and stunt. Aerobics is great for conditioning your heart to get through a routine without being out of breath, plus you will become stronger. You can't go wrong with cardio and weight training. you can also do cartwheels and stretches. it helps you not disconnect any muscles. hope i answered your question

yes you can! you can do a flip off of the bar and land on the floor. that is called a fly-away. you can also do a flip out of agiant, over the bar and catch it, aka a release move. you can also do flips from the highbar to the lowbar, or from the low bar to the high bar, also release moves.

It depends on where you live! For example, gymnastics is not very well-known or popular in the Midwest, especially in states that don't have gymnastics teams affiliated with schools. However, everyone gets a bit excited about gymnastics when the Summer Olympics roll around, after watching it on TV, and interest peaks then.

Gymnasics doesn't really have leagues, it has levels. When you are little, you go into recreational gymnastics. (this is for canada.) and then gymcat (beginner advanced expert) and then you go into Provincial 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 then nationals and then you can go internationally

you make money if you teach gymnastics.

Today, both children and adults lead an increasingly less active lifestyle, but they are very active online. This has a very bad effect on muscle tone, the functioning of various organs and systems of the body, as well as on the state of health in general.

An effective solution to this problem is to buy a trampoline. This versatile sports equipment is intended for fun and training for both children and adults. You just need to choose the right model from all the variety offered by modern manufacturers: from gaming to sports, from home to professional.

All trampolines are divided into large groups depending on their design, size and purpose:

• amateur and professional,

• games and sports,

• children and adults,

• inflatable and frame,

• indoor and outdoor,

• large and small,

• with and without mesh.

For more information, I found a cool rating of trampolines by Nolan Harris on a trampolines.guide.

Well, each sequence is different (and should be). It could be a back tumbling sequence for example. Let's say the gymnast just finished her dance sequence in her beam routine. In a beam routine each sequence usually travels the full length of the beam (unless it is a stationary sequence such as a jump sequence). Now the gymnast will stand tall, take a deep breath and raise her arms tall to gain good center-balance then do a back-hand spring, back hand spring, back layout (that should take up the entire length of the beam) and place her arms in a "finish" position signifying she has completed that sequence.

Their feet become slippery when they sweat so the powder also know as chalk makes their feet less swlippery.

i believe that you would judge it with fairness of course, but also with kindness. don't ever laugh at the person you're judging.

To add to that point and get into the specifics of judging cheerleading there are multiple categories. A routine can earn up to 15 points in the areas of jumps, stunts, tumbling, and overall. A team earns these points based on the execution and degree of difficulty. The categories continue and teams earn up to 5 points in other categories such as difficulty, choroeography and transitions. It is a complicated system but as time goes by and you compete or judge you become aware of the difference between exceptional routines and spectacular ones.

u jugde by tightness in legs and arms. and in facials and ur timing and ur effort. trust me ive been in cheerleading for 6 yrs.

tigtnesss and if u keep ur eyes on the flyer

There is no age requirement, but children younger than 4 or 5 generally do not have enough control over their body to do gymnastics and teenagers older than 14 or 15 generally do not start gymnastics because a gymnasts body at that age is very well adjusted to gymnastics with flexibility and muscle. Most gymnasts "retire" at about 16 or 17 anyway, because their body is too "old" or is starting to wear out because of the harsh abuse from years of gymnastics. But, I know several people who have started gymnastics at 14 and are doing very well.

uneven bars-2 bars in witch you do tricks and use grips

Vault- you run to a table (not like a dinning room table)and jump on a spring board and do a trick on it.

Beam-it is 4 inches wide and we do tricks p.s I do a backhandspring on it :p

floor- You dance to music that has no words.and do flips

There are a number of apparatuses used in rhythmic gymnastics. Some of these positions include the ball, hoop, ribbon, clubs, as well as rope.

As harsh as it seems, they train about 16 hours a day. Being a sports star in China basically translates into who's body can take the most abuse and not fall apart. This is also why their bodies are pretty much trashed by age 20

Hey!

Gymnastics Apparatus is an item on which gymnasts exercise. Some of them are: pommel horse, balance beam, rope, trampoline, floor, parallel bars, uneven bars...

I hope I helped a little :-)

I think you might be talking about a backwards roll which is basically a roll from crouching where you lean backwards onto your shoulder and your arms are straightened, and you end up standing.

Agility helps in gymnastics because if you get good at it you need the speed and power to do things like ... back flips, backsaults, front saults and layout also many more. If you don't have the agility you will probably hurt or injure youself.
