Wow! Look At All The
Benefits of Gymnastics
We have all watched Olympic gymnasts and been amazed at
their strength, flexibility, balance and control.
- Flexibility. Flexibility is a key factor in gymnastics. Increasing your flexibility can be effective to reduce injury and gain greater control of the body.
- Disease prevention. Gymnastics can help prevent health conditions such as obesity, heart disease and diabetes. It helps encourage a healthy lifestyle.
- Gymnastics is a weight bearing activity, and that can help to develop strong bones.
- Several studies show that children who participate in physical activity, like gymnastics are likely to have better self-esteem
- The American Heart Association suggests children participate in 60 minutes of physical activity each day. Participating in gymnastics helps meet this recommendation.
- Gymnastics not only offers physical gain, but also improves concentration and mental focus. Gymnasts also gain improved coordination to be better equipped to avoid falls.
- In children, gymnastics also provides an opportunity to develop social skills and instill self-discipline.
