Is gymnastics really that good as an activity and fitness vehicle?

Asked by Hypocrisy_Central (26879points) June 15th, 2011

Based on earlier question about the logic of kiddie pole dance class. However, as an activity and physical fitness vehicle is gymnastics really as good as it seem? When you look at the potential injuries especially for girls who seem to start younger and compete younger also, dose it really have the upper hand over pole dancing? Spills #6, #3, and #1
were extremely wicked, not that many of the others were better, I can see landing on your head or careening off apparatuses creating concussions or for the very unlucky a broken neck or back. Is it no one really focus on that because gymnastics are more popular and profitable as an industry?
