In any physical activity there is always an element of risk and the potential for injuries to occur. As with the teaching of all aspects of physical education there are certain common sense procedures which staff can follow to minimize the risk of injury to a student: A) Ensure that a safe environment is provided at all times. i)Ensure that the equipment is correctly assembled and suitably padded with landing mats appropriate for the apparatus and type of activity. ii) Ensure that there is sufficient space to move between apparatus. iii) Adjust the height/width of the apparatus to suit the ability of the gymnast. B) Supervision i) Gymnastic activities should only be performed under the supervision of a qualified person ii) When additional supporters – assistants – are used, ensure that they are physically strong enough and competent to assist. C) Personal Care i) Do not wear jewellery in the gymnasium ii) Do not wear loose baggy clothing or clothing which will restrict movement iii) Always warm up before performing gymnastics exercises iv) Do not permit the gymnast to attempt exercises or skills for which they have not been prepared v) Do not attempt to perform gymnastics’ skills when the body is fatigued vi) Ensure that the gymnast has the required fitness to perform the task in hand vii) The ability to land or fall safely will greatly reduce the anxiety and will reduce the risk of injury Accidents in the gymnasium may be caused through ignorance, stupidity and horseplay.

Flexibility is important in injury prevention and helping prevent the every day aches and pains. In contrast, prescriptions for maximizing strength and minimizing hypertrophy usually involve heavier loads, smaller numbers of repetitions, and longer periods of rest. Kyla Ross performs a jaegar on the uneven bars. Gymnasts are graded on the skill level of the routine as well as how well the movements flow. Have you ever heard of the sport called power tumbling? Yurchenko It is a move named after a famous gymnast, Natalia Yurchenko. Flexion occurs at the knee during any skill where the gymnast must tuck his legs. Will they reinvent the most difficult gymnastics moves? The main challenge of the pommel horse, from a physics point of view, is dynamic stability, which means that the gymnast has to stay balanced enough to remain on the pommel while also moving his body.

Research was conducted on a sample of 32 jumps. Sixteen jumps at apparatus (vault) finals competition were performed at the Olympic Games 2000. in Sydney, Australia. Other sixteen jumps were performed also in the vault finals, but at the Olympic Games 2016. in Rio, Brazil. Analyses of the vaults were done by video. Variables which are used was divid- ed in two parts: type of the jumps (2, 3, 4, 5) and rotation (180°, 360°, 540°, 720°, 900°). Type of jumps was: 2=Handsprings, 3=Tsukahara, 4=Yurchenko, 5= Half-turn entry. Differences between the Olympic Games in type of jumps and rotations were calculated by T-test for in- dependent samples and Mann-Whitney U Test for independent sample. Results of Mann- Whitney U Test have shown that at the level of statistical significance of p<,05 that there were differences between the Olympic Games in variable rotation. It seems that today´s vault is performed with much more rotation around longitudinal (LA) axis of the body, and around transversal it seems that they are the same despite the new vault table.

  • English Gymnastic Terminology: Semantic and Structural Features
    Special Issue INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF HUMANITIES AND July 2016 CULTURAL STUDIES ISSN 2356-5926 English Gymnastic Terminology: Semantic and Structural Features Natalia Nikolaevna Bobyreva Associate Professor Institute of International Relations, History and Oriental Studies Kazan (Volga Region) Federal University, Kazan, Russia E-Mail: [email protected] Contact: +79033882044 Abstract The importance of researching the material is determined by the fact that the sports terminology consists of many subsystems corresponding to particular kinds of sport. Each of them is characterized by specific features of form, meaning and functioning, as well as unique history and etymology of language items. This paper is aimed at covering the structural and semantic characteristics of English gymnastic terms. The leading methods applied within the research are description, component, structural and contextual analyses, alongside studying print and electronic dictionaries and glossaries of sports vocabulary, special literature of different styles and genres, interviews with people professionally involved in this sphere. The set of gymnastic terms is not homogeneous, and comprises one-word and multi-word items, eponymous terms, borrowings, etc. The research of gymnastic terms is of interest for terminological studies and sociolinguistics from the point of view of terminological systems development, role of gymnastic terms in the system of sports terminology, models of word and phrase formation and translation of special texts. Keywords: gymnastic terminology, term, sports terminology, Language for Specific Purposes, sublanguage of sport, special discourse. http://www.ijhcs.com/index.php/ijhcs/index Page 118 Special Issue INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF HUMANITIES AND July 2016 CULTURAL STUDIES ISSN 2356-5926 1.

CC 73 and the Birth of the Modern Louisiana Two- Party System Wayne Parent* Jeremy Mhire** The 1973' Louisiana Constitutional Convention ("CC 73") happened at a significant moment in Louisiana's political history. It occurred at precisely the same time that Louisiana's present competitive two-party system was born. While the emergence of a two-party system in Louisiana was slow, even when compared to those of the other formerly Democratic dominant states in the Deep South, it was dramatic and has had lasting effects. CC 73 helped define the coalitions that formed the basis of our present competitive two-party system. This article will first place the constitutional convention into the temporal context of this dynamic political period in Louisiana and the American South. Then it will describe how the specific coalitions that formed in the convention became concrete precursors to our present party system and speculate on the difference it has made to present day Louisiana politics.
