Reflection Paper On Gymnastics

So far in my life I haven’t really had any memorable experiences to share, but I know that Gymnastics has been a big part of my life. I have been doing gymnastics for about 10 years. Been doing competitive gymnastics for at least six years and have joined USAG league three years ago. And can I say it has been a GREAT part of my life. A major lesson in life I have learned in this sport is to never give up and be confident. It sounds a little cheesy but I have learned that if you just put your mind to it you can accomplish lots of things. Once I came to high school, I had expected it too be a lot worse then I had imagined but I have enjoyed it so far. The people are nice and since Northwood is very small I’ve gotten to know lots of amazing and

I was going to go! I promised myself, and my coach, that I would! I was really sweating, my face was seriously turning red, like I was eating a fireball! All of my teammates and coaches were all staring at me. I was so terrified and I felt like I was in the ocean with sharks surrounding me and going to eat me any second! “OK, this is silly” I told myself. ‘I 'm going for it!” I started to run in very slow motion and sped up, I started putting my hands on the ground and I could just see eyes staring right at me! I began to put my hands back, well they were touching the other side of my body, well very quickly lifting my body up from the ground and…… Finishing!! I could already see my friends coming to me and putting their hands out so give me a REAL BIG HIGH FIVE! Well my coaches were coming right after them! I seriously jumped up and down with the most excitement I’ve ever had! I was trying to get that for years I felt like! And guess what? I did it! Gladly,that was the last rotation before we got to go home! I was so thrilled to tell my mom

For my report I decided to do it on gymnastics. My report will include the history about gymnastics. I will talk about how to do gymnastics and the benefits for doing gymnastics. I will also explain how I am involved in gymnastics. In the late eighteenth-and the early nineteenth-century gymnastics began. It started in Germany. Johann Friedrich Gutsmuths and Friedrich Ludwig Jahn created gymnastics. It is different now because back then they did not have all of the things that we have now. To do gymnastics, you need lots strength and flexibility. Some of The rules for gymnastics are that on floor you have to stay inside the line so if you are doing flips on the floor when you land you must be inside the line Gymnastics is good for you because

The coach made us run extra harder, which many people did not enjoy. I ran thinking, if I run hard enough, I will run the greatest 2-mile, the distance we have to run in the league finals, I have ever ran. We would run intervals, 1 lap, 2 laps, 3 laps, 4 laps, and vice versa. We would also run up and down stairs and run track laps until we felt like puking. The week passed by fast as we practiced, and the league finals was just up ahead now. The weekend before the meet, wasn’t much, but for most of the weekend, I had butterflies in my stomach multiplying every second the meet got closer. My dad told me not to worry, which I thought was silly, because this was a huge meet. I got a lot of rest sleeping, and finally, the day had come. The day of the cross country league

According to Chris Mallac, the Sports Injury Doctor, gymnasts suffer many growth problems. This includes back problems. One problem includes Scheuermann's disease. One is diagnosed with this disease when the front portion of their back does not develop. In fact, gymnasts are commonly diagnosed because of the repetitive flexing and arching of the back. This disease leads to hunchback. Specifically, the spine starts to wedge out. Scheuermann's disease can take gymnasts out of the sport for periods of time to let their spine grow and function properly. Gymnasts are also commonly diagnosed with premature osteoporosis. This is when the bones weaken, leading to bone loss and severe back pain. These problems are caused because the back never has time

It was important for me to keep up the positivity at practice even though I had been feeling negative. Despite my feelings for the sport, I was sacrificing everything for my team so we could stay together. We had awesome practices where we got so much done and then we also had practices that weren’t so great. But each time, my girls pushed through. And then, soon enough November was here and it was competition season. We were doing full-outs, the whole routine, 10 to 20 times every practice and then fixing and cleaning up our technique in between each full-out. Each time, the full-outs became harder as we were using more and more energy. But still, we pushed through. The night before, I went to bed early to prepare my body for what I knew was going to be a very long day ahead of me. Sometime in the middle of the night, I received a text saying our competition had been cancelled due to the host school having a lockdown the previous day. We had to wait. After all of the preparation we had had, we were forced to wait all of Thanksgiving break and then compete. So, we went on Thanksgiving break and I tried my hardest to get my mind where it needed to be for the competition. When we returned from break, we had exactly one practice left before our competition. As soon as everyone arrived, I could already tell something was off. And that is when we were told that one of our girls wouldn’t be competing with us due to grades. I don’t think I have ever felt so frustrated before. I was in complete shock that she had done this to us. But we had become that team that could bounce back from anything and we didn’t let this get us down. We rearranged the routine. The day finally came for us to compete. All day, I was anxious, wanting my team to do amazing but also to win. When we got to the school, everyone’s nerves were on but I knew we had it. I could feel it in my skin. I could feel myself

Before starting first grade and at the insistence of a close family friend, my mother finally decided to check out the gymnastics center in Roanoke, Virginia. Observing this sport was important to her and she actually had me tested for the beginners’ class. Climbing trees and hopping on our trampoline, as a little girl, made for the best days so it only seemed natural that I would fall in love with gymnastics. Beginning at the lowest level and over the subsequent eight years, I would become a competitive Level 8 gymnast. From the beginning, my mother recognized how much I would cherish it. Being part of a military family, on the other hand, required my family to move four times over those eight years and eventually ending up here,

Since I did competitive gymnastics for eleven years, the article “Exercise Prior to Puberty and Adult Bone Mass” involving female gymnasts seemed interesting to me. I started learning gymnastics when I was three years old, and I wondered if exercising that young had any long-term benefits. This research seemed an important and relevant topic because I am now a retired gymnast. The overall purpose of this study was the researchers wanted to know at what stage during growth is exercise a good way to increase peak bone mineral density in females. They conducted this study because they think pre-pubertal exercise is an opportune time during growth to increase peak bone mineral density. By completing this study, researchers hope to find out whether

In gymnastics math plays a crucial role in tricks and stunts. If a gymnast does not have enough power to complete a trick at the right angle the trick will not be safely completed. There is also math in how gymnastics are judged and how skills are rated. There are five different values of grading a skill, the skills are A, B, C, D, E and F. For each skill level the difficulty point increases by one tenth. The goal of a gymnast is to get a perfect score of ten (Isport, rules and regulations).

For my nursing class, we were required to walk across campus after our exam to do a fitness test at the gym. The fitness test had a mandatory 1-minute push-up, 1-minute sit up, sit and flexibility test, and wall sit test. It was on a Friday at 9:00 a.m. so it was full of other students from various classes along with the average solo person just working out early in the morning. There are a few sections of the gym, there is the pool, weights, treadmills, and the gigantic basketball/jogging area. I was in the push-ups section in the far back along with the other students.

 I don’t really enjoy exercise, the sweating, being out of breath etc. Therefore, I would never guess that a high school gym class would influence how I would be spending the rest of my life. Well, it never changed my opinion on exercise, but it did help me discover a passion for education and how people should be treated. I always assumed that I would be a vet, healing animals and having customers come from far and wide. However, around the age of twelve, I realized you have to be willing to put animals down in order to do that job. Shortly, I decided that I need to rethink my career choice.
