palms facing down.

[Link]: A leg position where the knees and hips are

flexed to a minimum of 90° towards the chest.

3. Rings: The rings exercise must include at least two handstands: one

executed by means of force and the other through swinging. At least one

force element must be carried out for two seconds. Examples of

These elements of strength are the Christ, the inverted cross or the iron plate.

4. Pre-jump: Jump prior to the gymnastic elements that helps to unify the run.

Mixed support forward: A position where the weight is balanced on the hands.

7. Arching: To stretch and/or flex the back.

8. Balance beam: The exercise should last between 70 and 90 seconds and cover the entire

length of the apparatus. The gymnast must perform acrobatic movements,

gymnasts and dancers to achieve a high score. The balance beam is

9. Fixed bar: The fixed bar exercise consists exclusively of elements of

balancing without stops. The gymnast is required to perform at least one

movement in which you release the bar and then re-grab it (a 'release'), and

it must also carry out a dorsal swing (with the back facing)

bar)

10. Asymmetrical bars: The most spectacular of the apparatus in the competition

feminine, the asymmetric bars require strength as much as concentration,

coordination and precision. In an asymmetrical exercise, we must observe

large swings that begin at the highest bar, incorporating several

bar changes, pirouettes, and releases.

11. Parallel bars: A parallel bars exercise basically consists of elements of

balancing and flying. Force components can be used in the routine.

[Link]: Position where the hips are flexed at 90°; with the legs and

extended knees.

[Link]: Gymnastic elements are divided according to their objective difficulty into

A, B, C, D, E ... from least to most difficulty.

straight legs, pointed feet, body alignment and good technique both in the

body skills as well as apparatus skills.

18. Body axes: These are the axes around which the body rotates, transverse axis, axis

longitudinal and anteroposterior axis.

19. The armchair: it is a crossbow. From the tent position or trunk flexion with

legs extended and back supported on the ground, a push is made with

extension of the body, and with the help of support, it flips over to land on its feet.
20. The free flip: requires a prior run with speed ending in a

jump with both legs together and the arms lifted providing a thrust

additional. In the battle, the center of gravity must be well behind the

foot position because it is very vertical. Feet always in front.

[Link]: Rope - the rope wraps around some part of the body.

22. Spirals: Tape - small circular paths made with the wrist.

23. Special requirements: The exercises for each apparatus or test must have

specials consist of executing certain specific elements of different

structural groups that guarantee variety.

24. Extended: Position where the trunk and the legs are separated, the abdomen and

tight glutes.

25. Flexibility: body skill - a movement that requires agility in the back,

torso and legs.

26.- Fic flac back: The initial position is facing away from the direction of movement,

achieved after a previous thrust that provides speed to execute this

element. The legs are bent at a 90º angle displacing the center of

gravity backward, a sudden leg extension is performed in the direction

oblique back and up, seeking a horizontal translation with speed, united to

a quick thrust of the arms back until reaching the ground. In the flight occurs
 extension of the body and the hands are placed on the ground pushing with the arms

making a corvette.

27. Way of passing: From the standing position with one foot forward and the weight of

the body is centered in the middle of the two legs.

28. Formation: Group - a drawing formed by the gymnasts positioned on the floor.

29. Core strength: the center of the body - the abdominal muscles that stabilize the

torso and pelvis allowing the gymnast to work with a correct alignment

30. Women's artistic gymnastics: composed of four apparatuses among which

they are horse jumps (currently a jumping table due to its shape),

asymmetric bars, balance beam and exercises on free hands or ground. The

skills, basic abilities, and capacities from a very early age, the

different exercises and characteristic elements of this sport are aimed at

a large muscle group which can be targeted for the upper body

Just like the lower body, a characteristic of this sport is the

showing a great combination of muscle tone, flexibility, and elegance.

body, through specific exercise routines for that purpose.

defined.

38. The corvette: it is a progression of the rondada and the flik-flak, it is the last part of

both elements. To execute it, a push is made with the legs and

extend the body to stay in an inverted position. The gymnast lowers.

she would quickly flex her hips and push with her arms with strength, when

supporting on the ground, the performer must bounce upward, as

after the corvette, exercises are performed backwards with momentum.

39. The artistic gymnastics competition floor: it is a large space in which

they distribute the different male and female events, each category

I need specific material that must be inspected regularly with the

object of checking their good condition and ensuring the safety of the gymnasts, in
 the Olympic competitions to make it easier for spectators to see the track

elevated above the ground by a system of platforms.

40. The forward roll: it starts standing, with feet together. The first movement is

the bending of the knees to the squat position. The center of gravity is brought

forward until contacting with the hands on the ground. The body moves forward

producing imbalance, the head bends over the chest, the arms

they flex, absorbing the weight of the body and the back rests successively,

returning to the initial position thanks to inertia.

41. The backward roll: it starts standing, with feet together and facing in the direction

opposite to the movement. The first movement is the flexion of the knees

up to the squatting position, passing through the seated position, it rolls.

from behind in a rocking manner and the legs remain flexed against the

trunk. The hands will be placed beside the neck with the palms against the ground and

the fingers pointing towards the shoulders, the arms absorb the weight of the body

about the neck during the turn and we return to the starting position.

42. The gymnasts: must intersperse, among the elements that provide difficulty, the

unions between them, and the required composition requirements, movements

defined by the code as artistic.

43. The gymnastic elements: must flow freely during the exercise while

that the jumps must cover great distances and the spins and turns should add excitement

to the music.
44. Lunge: Ballet step consisting of the front leg in demi-plié and the

from the back extended. To start the turn, extend the front leg and

immediately raise the sole of the foot.

the knee of the supporting leg. It can be parallel or turned outward.

50. Detjera step: Dance - a transfer in the air of the weight from one foot to the other with the

 canons of aesthetic gymnastics, taking into account the proper posture that

each gymnastic element requires. The sublimation of gymnastic execution,

converted into art, it is called virtuosity

53. Fast: Directed towards the speed of gymnastic exercises and their form

two hands during the journey.

[Link] bearing: Ring- a free bearing with an effect on the rotation it makes

let it roll away and come back.

62. Free bearing: ring - ball - a bearing of the device that is not guided

ball, batons and ribbon, and where the apparatus moves over the body or over the

soil.

64. Jump: The different jumps in the women's category are grouped into four

categories, defining each category the varied positions of the body and the

the jump measures one meter wide by 25 meters long.

65. Jump: Each jump is classified in the scoring code, which awards the score.
