Interesting article. A few questions came to my mind after reading it. Gymnastics may be greatest sport but why isn't it popular compared to other sports like NFL football, track & field, soccer and basketball? And why don't other sports borrow some conditioning ideas from gymnastics? I did notice Crossfit installed rings in their squat racks.

because people like to watch sports they play - or somehow participate in, at least in my opinion.

and more people play football than does gymnastics
