Olympiad
Athens 1896
Gymnastics is a family of Olympic sports centered on strength, coordination, flexibility, balance, and execution quality. Across its disciplines, athletes perform structured routines or acrobatic elements judged on technical difficulty, control, artistry, and precision. Over time, formats and scoring systems evolved, but the core objective remained the same: clean, controlled movement under strict technical standards.
