1.

Plank:
In a plank, you use muscular force, primarily from your core, shoulders, and arms, to hold
your body in a straight line. The force is applied against gravity to maintain this position. This
exercise me and my peers are quite familiar with it. The longer you hold it, the more time
your muscles are under tension, which contributes to strength and endurance. Planksdon’t
need to much space because you are in an isometric position and error won't result in a
displacement in balance. Around 2 metres should be given

2. Handstand: In a handstand, you exert a significant amount of force through your hands
and arms to support your body weight while inverted. This force counteracts gravity. The
time spent in a handstand can vary. Balance and control are essential to maintain this
position, and gymnasts or yoga practitioners may work on increasing the duration over time.
Handstands require enough overhead space to fully extend your body, and some space for
balance adjustments, which means if you fall, you could hit something/someone if it's too
close, because your off balance. Around 4 metres

3. Seated Hamstrings Stretch:


The force in this stretch comes from your muscles, particularly the hamstrings, as you
engage them to reach forward and elongate the muscles. Holding the stretch for a longer
period hurt more and make deeper hamstring stretch. Space Minimal space is required for
this seated stretch. No too much room is needed, just enough to move your hamstring up
and down

4. Butterflies:
In the butterfly stretch, you use force to gently press your knees down towards the floor,
stretching the groin and inner thigh muscles. The time spent in this stretch can vary based
on your flexibility and comfort. Some people hold the stretch for a few seconds, while others
may hold it longer to increase flexibility, we will be holding it/doing it for 1 minute. This
stretch doesn't require much space. You can perform it while seated on the floor in a small
area.

Human Square:
The human square generates little to no force needed. Four people need to lay down on the
gound and then make a square. The total amount of space needed is 4-5 metres squared for
us to make it work. Stretch contraction is seen in the last of the back, quads, toes/calves and
forearms. We will hold for 30-45 seconds.

Definitions:
Force: Force in gymnastics is seen to be the amount of force one can produce. An example
could be jumping off a trampoline onto a mat, into a motorbike pose. Force can be seen,
when you jump onto the trampoline hard hard you push determines the amount of force you
intake which pushes you back, and when you land and you land, force is absorbed into your
tendons, such as the achilles and patella tendons. Newton's Third law states that no object
can produce motion unless force is acted upon in the opposite direction.
Time: Time is how long it takes to do a certain movement. This is intentional for gymnastics
because you must be specific about how long it takes you to do something, in order to
successfully complete a movement. For example, running up to a trampoline can be timid
because you need to know how long a runup would be in order to stay consistent with your
jumps.

Space: Space shows how you have used your space. If you did it running, jumping, doing
pull ups. It would be more smart to use space as a putting your things closer together, but
enough room to perform the designated exercises. This can make a huge impact because of
how people may mess up and injure themselves if not enough space is used.

Syncnazation is one of the most important factors for the success of our circuit. This is
because of how all of us are not flexible or gymnastics based athletes and especially me my
muscles are very tight from physical activity. To create a smooth circuit synchronisation
creates an effect which is neat and tidy. Me and Anyieth are probably going to need to both
keep up our feet at the same time to both do a handstand at the same time and lean towards
our outwards sides so if we fall we do not fall on top of each other.
