The BMX is an extreme sport that must be practiced with the due
security that we provide the following objects: helmet, knee pads,
elbow pads, cloth or plastic gloves and wide shoes. The bicycle has
to be in good condition to avoid accidents.
The word comes from the verb to wield, and this in turn from
the Germanic verb skermjan, which means to repair or
protect. The opponents are called fencers. When a shooter is
touched by the opponent's weapon, the shooter who touches
the opponent receives a point.
Athletics is considered the oldest organized sport in the world.
It covers numerous disciplines grouped into races, jumps,
pitches and combined events.
The word athletics comes from the Greek word atletes, which
is defined as "that person who competes in a test determined
by a prize", noting that the Greek word is related to the word
aethos which is synonymous with the word "effort" .
