The sport of gymnastics is one of the few sports that took place in both the ancient and the modern Olympics. The term "gymnastics" derives from the Greek word "naked", as the first athletes practiced their exercises in ancient Greece without wearing clothes, while the sport was considered the perfect demonstration of the symmetry between body and mind.
The gymnastics in Greek antiquity aimed to prepare the athlete for the struggle, but also to achieve a fuller psychosomatic improvement, the general promotion of the individual.
The ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle argued that the trainer should theoretically know the exercises, be able to perform them and know their results. Ancient Greek physician Hippocrates referred to the healthy purpose of gymnastics precisely defining the limits of gymnastics and medicine, while the ancient Greek philosopher Plato referred to exercises related to today's "free exercises" or "flexibility exercises".
Sports is systematic physical cultivation and action in a specific way, while being a social institution that reflects the given society and its culture. In Ancient Athens, sport was considered to be a social and cultural asset and had a pedagogical character, while sport was used in military training in Sparta.
In the 18th and 19th centuries, the lower classes of society were engaged in "popular games" such as football, while the upper social classes with "noble sports" such as horseback riding and fencing.
