Gymnastics

People today often refer to gymnastics as the ultimate combination of art and sport. It’s believed to have emerged nearly 2500 years ago in ancient Greek when gymnastics was practiced to prepare for war and stay fit for different sports. When the Olympic movement was rejuvenated in 1896 in Athens, gymnastics was among the first sports to get listed.

However, women’s gymnastics was added to the competition list in 1928. Today, gymnastics is considered a great foundation for every sport. It develops balance, strength, flexibility, coordination, and agility – all proficiencies required for other sports like hockey, football, basketball, baseball, soccer, and volleyball. And this makes for the huge fans and viewership of gymnastics globally.

Evaluating The Popularity of Gymnastics in America

Gymnastics is among the most renowned Olympics sports in America. When the USA women’s team won gold in London in 2012, it had over 38 million spectators. Gabby Douglas, America’s third consecutive champion of Olympic gymnastics, led the “Fab 5” returned home like a celebrity.

However, this sport is popular for its viewership and the hundreds of clubs competing in artistic gymnastics. Interestingly, the sport’s popularity on the women’s side exceeds that of the men’s.

Why Do People Watch Gymnastics?

People are fond of the breathtaking daring involved in gymnastics. It’s exciting to watch a gymnast launch on the 4-inch-wide balance beam in a tumbling series, and so on. Everything seems magical to outside viewers, although its physics is governed by the rules of momentum, rotation, and inertia. And that makes for such a wider audience worldwide.

However, its popularity is also due to the way gymnastics walks the delicate line of extending boundaries while amending its sins against gendered expectations. It extends the cultural taboos around women’s sports and bodies as far as people are comfortable.
