Graceful, Beautiful, and Perilous
2004
Overview
Compared with other kinds of athletics, gymnastics stands out for its singular combination of bone-jarring impacts, intense training, young age, and ever-more demanding skills. Stokstad describes how young gymnasts many be raising their risk of osteoarthritis and other health problems later in life. He cites that high-level performance increases a gymnast's risk of developing mild deformities of the spine and chronic musculoskeletal pain.
