“…Thus, Miletić, Sekulic, et al (2004)found lower values in the VTJ test (21.2±4.4cm) in younger gymnasts (7.1±0.3 years). Menezes et al (2012) observed higher values than in our study: 35.1±3.5cm, 38.0±4.3cm and 40.1±2.7cm, respectively at state, national and international levels. Further, the authors verified that the gymnasts, who had already menstruated, presented higher results in the vertical jump.…”

“…Finally, the elite (34.1±2.9 cm) and 1 st division (34.5±5.5 cm) gymnasts presented a higher lower limbs' explosive strength level than base gymnasts (31.1±4.8 cm), according to the results achieved in the VTJ test. The vertical jump is widely used in the different elements in RG (Menezes, Novaes, & Fernandes-Filho, 2012),so, several previous research resorted to different devices to evaluate the vertical jump of gymnasts (Del Vecchio et al, 2014;Donti et al, 2016;H. Douda et al, 2008;Gateva, 2011Gateva, , 2013Grigoroiu, Pelin, Netolitzchi, & Pricop, 2015;Kritikou et al, 2017;Menezes & Fernandes Filho, 2006;Miletić, Katić, et al, 2004;Miletić, Sekulic, et al, 2004;Román et al, 2012;Rutkauskaitė & Skarbalius, 2009, 2011Silva et al, 2016;Stadnik et al, 2010).…”

The present study aimed to: (1) compare the strength level in Portuguese rhythmic gymnasts across competitive levels; (2)investigate the strength variables with higher discriminatory power between the groups and (3) determine which strength variables better explain performance. Participants included young gymnasts (n=164) in three competitive levels (Base, 1 st division and Elite). Six specific strength tests were used. For the statistical analyses, Kruskal-Wallis test, Discriminant Function, Person Correlation and Linear Regression were applied. The 1 st division and Elite reached higher results than Base in all strength tests. We observed a statistically significant superiority from Elite only in 50% of tests (Back power kick; Partial trunk elevations and Rope skipping tests). The partial trunk elevations and rope skipping tests were the strength variables with higher discriminatory power between the competition levels. 59.1% of gymnasts were well reclassified in the original groups. Finally, rope skipping test explained 7.2% of the variance in performance with some differences in the variables explaining performance across levels.

“…Among the instruments used, we must underline the trigonometric method (Irurtia et al, 2010), measuring tape (Leyton et al, 2012), goniometer (360º) (De Souza et al, 2012), dimensionless method consisting in comparison of joint ROM to an assessment scale (Batista et al, 2015;Batista et al, 2019), code of points and posture analysis through video recording (Boligon et al, 2015), manual goniometer (Fraga et al, 2018), Kinovea, specific software for 2D movement analysis (Ferri-Caruaca et al, 2020), and cameras or camcorders in the rest of studies that used degrees or longitudinal measurements (cm).…”

The aim of this study was to review the tests used to measure flexibility in gymnastic disciplines. The search was conducted on PubMed, WOS, Scopus, Sport Discus and Google Scholar databases, and included studies in English and Spanish that assessed flexibility in gymnasts and were published between January 2005 and March 2020. Twenty-seven manuscripts were selected, rhythmic and women's artistic gymnastics being the most frequently studied disciplines. Flexibility was most commonly assessed in the hip and shoulder joints. Within the wide variety of tests performed, the most commonly used ones were the split, shoulder flexibility, bridge and sit-and-reach tests. Linear measurements were usually used, followed by the angular ones. In conclusion, in spite of flexibility being a determining capacity in gymnastic disciplines, several studies did not provide information on the validity of their results. Further studies including validated tests applied to larger samples and using longitudinal approaches are needed, with the aim to confirm test predictive validity and to allow for greater generalisation.

“…Research conducted by Menezes et al (2012), Melin et al (2015) and Zaccagni et al (2019) highlights that RG tend to overestimate aesthetics, focusing on achieving a very low-fat percentage in order to improve aesthetic performance. This can negatively affect health, potentially leading to low energy availability for performance, which increases the risk of injury (De Oliveira et al, 2017).…”

The primary aim of this study was to examine the body composition of young female rhythmic gymnasts and draw comparative insights from the collected data. Additionally, the results were compared with other studies that shared identical or analogous research objectives. 36 girls divided into three age groups participated in the research: Group 1 (age: 8.57 ± 0.66), group 2 (age: 10.32 ± 0.48) and group 3 (age: 12.90 ± 0.74). Body composition was determined using an octopolar bioelectrical impedance analysis device InBody 370. Among the various variables assessed, the groups exhibited statistically significant differences across most parameters, with exception of body fat (%). Our results, consistent with prior research studies, revealed that our participants also exhibited the characteristic body composition commonly observed in rhythmic gymnastics. These findings suggest that rhythmic gymnastics primarily affects body weight and the percentage of body fat tissue, while also contributing to the development of muscle mass over years of training and sports experience.
