Ritual exercises and routines predate written history, mainly as Martial Arts training. The Greeks established gymnastics as a sport, notably in the Olympics, around the 8th century BC.
During the Renaissance, the physical therapy publication De Arte Gymnastica (combining exercise, health, and hygiene) was written in 1569 by Italian physician Girolamo Mercuriale.
Gymnasts
Most start as young as 5 or 6 and go until they are 17-19 unless they are Olympic bound. Most of the time, if you are not Olympic bound by 15 or so, that's the end of your career. There are unique cases however, where there will be a 30 year old Olympic gymnast.
