why don't you post the medalists ?

 

I remember there was some sort of discussion about rhythmic gymnastics not being a proper sport. Some people even consider it to be easy. When a girl performs a routine with big mistakes, everyone can see how hard this sport is, and maybe, just maybe, people will finally learn to respect the hard work each and every gymnast puts on their routines. 

Besides, you can post the routines of the medalists if you want. I encourage you to do so.

I would think most people just find it a bit of a boring thing to watch. At least, that's it in my case (mostly because I don't have a clue if something is good or not, just like in equestrian dressage, and it's not that spectacular for me like artistic gymnastics). I have absolutely no doubt they work their asses off just as much as the average cyclist, runner or swimmer :p 

 

 

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!

You can learn a lot just by watching competitions with good commentary (even better if there are also live scores on screen during test). That's how I learned the trade despite never even touching a horse. :p

I agree that it's hard to enjoy it fully if you don't understand much of what is going on. It helps a lot if you understand the value of some elements. But I admit that it is hard for most people, even die hard fans. Here are some videos that might help, though.
