Gymnastics

February 22nd, 2007

Hi i’m Hannah and i’m gonna tell u about Gymnastics. Gymnastics has got 3 parts to it. The mens, Rithmic and Artistic. But i’m gonna tell u about Artistic Gymnastics.

Artistic Gymnastics has got 4 parts of apparatis. The Floor, The Beam, The Vault and The Bars. I think the floor is the easiest and the beam is the hardest. The vault and the bars are about the same difficulty.

On the floor, u can do tumbling, conditioning and balancing. On the floor i can do 2 flips joined twogether and a back summi (basiclly a flip with no hands.)

On the vault i can do a handspring (a flip but fowards). It’s quite hard but u get the hang of it sooner or later.

Next, it’s the beam. I can do a back summi off of it and a free roll on it.(a foward roll with no hands). I hate this apparatis.

And finally, the bars. I quite like them but i’m not very good at them. I can do some stuff but there to hard to explain.

I hope u like my hobby and might take it up one day. It’s really no that hard!!
