Do you consider Gymnastics to be a sport?

[Clare S]

If not, Why? It just makes me mad when people say it isn't. I train ALL THE TIME and it is extremely hard. I don't see how people can think it isn't a sport.

 

[Holy Smokes I'm Gorgeous]

Yessir!!
And competitive cheerleading is a sport too.

It makes me mad too. You don't understand how many arguments I've gotten into over it.

It is defintely a sport...my daughter has been a gymnast since she was 5, she is now 11 years old...she has really toned arms with muscle ! it is defintely a sport!!

Yes, it's hard work to do & not everybody can do it, there's A LOT of flips & stuff involved & people get hurt for life sometimes doing gymnastics...

AND, there ARE gymnastics competitions ALL THE TIME, INCLUDING the one in the Olympics every four years...sports don't ALWAYS involve a ball...why is there gymnastics, taekwondo, skiing, bobsled, ice skating, etc. in the Olympics if they're NOT sports?

 

[тоо aмazin’]

yes its amazing! ♥

 

[Violet-Eyes]

um, duh. you work hard, its physical, and its a competition. and its in the olympics!

 

[[ Amira ♥ ] suspended]

Hell yes , its a sport !

 

[remoserjr107]

Yes, and a very difficult sport to master....!!

 

[mr dance moves]

If golf is a sport (and its the most ridiculous sport out of all of the them) then gymnastics is a sport!

 

[iDream(in NYC)]

Of course. My friend has been doing it since she was little and she spends on average 6 hrs a day training intensely.

 

[eeyore123]

yes i consider it a sport.
they train so so so hard and it's not something they are born with like basketball skills or something. they're taught this.

 

[Beastly]

Yes I do!! I love it!!

 

[flixy]

yes it is, it is like the main event at the olympics (the world wide event where people from all over the world come to compete in sports)

 

[jkn.]

Yeah, of course!
