The highest and lowest scores in a gymnastics competition are thrown out so that the average scores are what is counted across the board. This both helps and harms the gymnast if they have an extreme score either way.

What are the phases of gymnastics.?

if by phases you meant events this is what i know. Floor Exercise, Pommel Horse, Still Rings, Vault, Parallel bars, and Horizontal Bar and balance beam. There might be more if this is what you are talking aboutIf this question is asking about the 6 phases of the Gymnastics Program, here they are: Floor Exercise, Pommel Horse, Still Rings, Vault, Parallel bars, and Horizontal Bar.It really depends on how you are when you start where you begin. The earliest level in Tots (toddlers) Classes. Then you move on to Kinder Classes, both of which where you just learn very basics. Basic levels introduce early skills and techniques. After that is J.O levels, which you begin learning routines. With each J.O level you advance to more and more difficult skills and begin competing by J.O level 4 or so. Elite is the highest level and it is the level from which they choose Olympians from.
