The Gymnast Vector and Its Advantages and Disadvantages

The gymnast vector is a mathematical concept that allows for describing the vectors and higher-order tensors of a metric space. It is based on the fact that, in a flat vector space such as R3 (or even a sphere), one can construct a linear functional with its kernel and norm which yields a covariant vector. The covariant vector is a set of hyperplanes that pass through the origin, with spacing depending on the norm. Geometrically, these are the vectors that are called tangent vectors in the linear algebra view of vector spaces.

In a physical sense, the vectors are those that can be moved around freely in the spacetime which is spanned by the coordinate system at point P. They are described by a tensor formula_1 and an orthonormal matrix formula_2 which is a metric spacetime tensor. Hence, they are tangent vectors at the spacetime point P. They also satisfy the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality and are invariant under coordinate transformations, which gives them their practical usefulness.

Nevertheless, the gymnast vector does have some disadvantages. For example, the metric tensor depends on spacetime and so it is not a solution of Einstein’s field equations. Another problem is that the geometrical vectors are not the same as tangent vectors in the usual linear algebra view. This is a consequence of the fact that a vector can be contravariant or covariant, but not both simultaneously.

Gymnastics is a highly demanding and physically challenging sport that can lead to a number of injuries [1, 2]. Effective screening tools can be used to identify gymnasts who are at risk of injury and this has potential to reduce injuries. However, it is important that screening tools are accurate and reliable to be useful.

A recent systematic review examined whether a range of different screening tools could predict injury in gymnasts. Injured and uninjured high-level and low-level gymnasts were compared on measures of balance, speed and arm flexibility/strength. It was found that injured high-level gymnasts scored significantly lower on a combination of these variables than their uninjured counterparts and also had significantly lower sit and reach scores. However, the study did not record training or competition time which could influence the findings.
