Ao3 gymnastics

Gymnastic based sport

In this unit I will talk about what I did well and what I didn’t do well. I will also talk about how I improve, and how to improve. I will also show evidence.

This is a table of my jumps and what the judges scored me.

	Judge 1	Judge 2
Straddle	4	4
Through	6	7

As you can see I did not do very well in the straddle jump. This was because I did not straighten my legs wide enough and I did not land perfectly, if I had improved on those two things I might have got a higher score.

I later did these same jumps again with the same judges and they gave me a better score (this is shown in the table).

	Judge 1	Judge 2
Straddle	7	6
Through	8	9

I had improved in both my jumps and you could see that clearly in my table.

The reason why I did not get a good score in the straddle jump on table 1, was because of my run up. My run up was not fast enough and I had a blister, which slowed me down. I also did not stretch my legs wide enough.

I have improved a lot in the last two lessons; this is shown by my scores for my jumps. The reason I improve in the straddle and through jump, was because I mainly used these jumps for all my gymnastic sessions. I gradually got better at this, and soon I could do these jumps easily.

The training I have done to improve my fitness is cardio exercise which is shown in the table below:

I did these drills every day for ten minutes each week. These drills helped build my fitness and core. I also practised these jumps over cretin objects when I was not busy.

My mum wrote “Ore has been doing all these exercise on a regular basis to improve his fitness”.

My strengths in gymnastics are the height of my jump and the clarity of the jump. But I need to improve on my speed and balance; to improve on my speed I need to run more and that is why I am using a treadmill to help me with my speed. To improve my balance I will do some balancing exercise, like walking with a book on my head, this improves my balance and posture.
