GYMNASTICS AND BODY
SYSTEMS
BY: CAROLINE P
GYMNASTICS
• Gymnastics is a sport where you do flips on the floor. You fly on bars. You flip on vault and
you balance on beam. Gymnastics is a hard sport. You got to use a lot of our bodies systems
to perform gymnastics and that’s what I am going to show you today.
MUSCULAR SYSTEM
this is a. picture of me doing a backwards roll to pike. This pose shows how I use my arm
muscles . I also use my leg muscles and the muscles help your body stay strong so you don’t fall.
The muscle in your quads, arms , core, legs and feet help you with this kind of pose. Without
the muscular system the bones in my body would not be able to hold me up.
SKELETAL SYSTEM
• The skeletal system helps when you are doing this pose because you are using your arm, legs
and feet and there are bones in all of those parts of your body. They support your body when
you are doing this pose. With the bones they also provide strength and balance because
without bones we would not be able to do gymnastics.
DIGESTIVE SYSTEM
• When you are doing any gymnastics it is good to eat fruit , vegetables , protein , calcium and
vitamins. Also, you should eat these to give you energy, strength and to help so you won’t get
muscle cramps. It is also important to drink lots of water while doing gymnastics because
your body will sweat and you could become dehydrated without water.
•
RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
• The respiratory system is critical for survival not just to help with the backwards roll to pike.
Because you need oxygen for all of the sytems in our body to function. The oxygen fuels the
muscles, my brain and heart to push hard during gymnastics. Obviously, the respiratory
system is very important.
CIRCULATORY SYSTEM
• the circulatory system goes throughout your body through what are called blood vessels.
Blood vessels pump blood throughout the body. We need blood pumping or else our body
will not receice oxyegen, water and the nutrients we receive in our foods. Also we need our
heart to pump because the heart is the source that pumps the blood into the blood vessels.
NERVOUS SYSTEM
• The nervous system tells your body what to do. So in this pose my brain tells my body to go backwards
lift your legs and stand. The nervous system is very very important in gymnastics because it tells us
everything our body needs to do. It is also important in gymnastics to follow the saftey rules because
the nervous system can be seriously injured if they are not followed. For example, always using a
spotter when first learning a movement. That’s a very important part in gymnastics.
EXCRETORY SYSTEM
• One part of the excretory system is how you skin can sweat. During gymnastics the body can
become very hot and by sweating the body can cool down. Drinking water is important so
you have liquid to form sweat.
IMMUNE SYSTEM
Another important system is the immune system. It helps your body kill germs so that you can
be healthy and do gymnastics. I can help my immune system to do this by eating healthy and
getting enough sleep.
