What kinds of gymnastics are there?

Gymnastics is a perfect combination of sports and aesthetics, and is also one of the earliest sports. In the late 20th century, Olympic gymnastics competitions staged many amazing scenes for people.

Speaking of the history of gymnastics, it can be traced back to the ancient Greek period, and there were gymnastics competitions in the ancient Olympic Games. There are records of gymnastics in ancient Rome, Persia, India and China.

The word "gymnastics" also comes from Greek, and its original meaning is "naked" because athletes rarely wore clothes at that time. At the end of the 18th century, modern gymnastics began to rise in Europe, and it once became synonymous with "sports" in many languages. It was listed as an event in the first Olympic Games in 1896.

Men’s events in gymnastics include: team, individual all-around, floor exercise, pommel horse, rings, vault, parallel bars, and horizontal bars; women’s events include: team, individual all-around, vault, uneven bars, balance beam, and floor exercise.

China and Russia are strong gymnastics countries, and countries such as Belarus, Ukraine, Romania, the United States, France and Spain will also strive to win medals.
