Advantages: fun, skillful, breathtaking

Disadvantages: dangerous, can link to anorexia, no money

Have you ever watched gymnastics? i dont mean gazed at the tv but really watched the movement, the flight and skill of the individual gymnasts> if so you will agree that is one of the most skillfull sports known. It takes precision, accuracy, balance, flexibility, but most of all courage.
When i did gymnastics at a younger age, i was so scared when asked to do movements such as handsprings off the end of a beam. THe risk involved makes it even more fun. Yet why is it - that this skillful sport is never seen on telelvision? the only publicity linked with gymsnatics is anorexia and bulimia. If any of you have seen the perfect body- the film about a bulimic gymnast then you will know what i am talking about. But some of us love to watch and do gym just for the fun not to get the body or to win the olympics. So i think it should be shown a lot more on tv rather than football about 3 time a week. Even the international championships are not shown!!!!
