girl gymnasts work on each separate of four events, polishing old skills during the competition season, learning and braving new skills off-season. bars takes a lot of abs and pain tolerance sometimes (your hands get quite sore from all the rips), while beam takes a lot of nerve and balance. vault is all about power and timing, while floor works your stamina and speed. most gymnasts also have a conditioning time, when they push their muscles harder than ever to be able to do their moves easily. at my gym, we work on the events for two or three hours, and most conditioning usually takes up an hour.
In floor they tumble and parts of dance. On vault they run across a platform and bounce off a spring board then push off a table then do a flip or whatever. On beam the can do flips and dance just slower more boring floor in a straight line. On bars most levels start with a kip, you can do casts handstands and jump to the high bar. Hope this helped!
if you mean events, for women there are vault, bars, beam, and floor for the men there are high bar, parelle bars, floor, pommel horse, vault, still rings.

Why do gymnasts raise their arms above their heads when they have finished their routines?
This is called a "salute". Gymnasts salute the judges before and after their routines. This signifies to the judge that the gymnast is ready. Before the routine, the judge will salute the gymnast (either by raising one arm or turning on a green light) letting the gymnast know that the judges are ready to watch his/her performance; then the gymnast will salute back letting the judge know he/she is ready to perform the routine. If the gymnast starts the routine before the judge salutes, the routine is not scored. After the routine, the gymnast will salute to let the judge know that the routine is finished and they can stop judging the performance.

Does Shawn Johnson perform a different routine every time she competes?
NO. Shawn Johnson does not change her routine everytime she competes. She changes her routine when she gets skills and there-fore can increase the difficulty of her routines. Also she will change her routine every once in awhile (the music and dance) so that she doesn't get bored (or the judges and audience) with her routine because then it wouldn't be fun to perform or to watch. The same goes for other gymnasts too!
