The women's uneven bars started out when the men's parallel bars were adjusted so that one bar was high and one low with added supports to allow them to swing in a different direction than the bars were created for. Each Olympic cycle after women's gymnastics became an Olympic sport, the uneven bars were moved further and further apart until they began to resemble the men's high bar apparatus. Today, women's uneven bars are almost to the point of being to parallel high bars. Because of the added bar, women have had to become more proficient than most men when it comes to technical execution of basic and advanced skills on the Uneven Bars.

History has not recorded the inventor of the uneven bars. The first mention of parallel bars set unevenly was in a textbook written by the French author Amoros in the 1830s. He wrote that the bars were set unevenly to allow women of all heights to use the same apparatus for training.
