Do you consider flexibility part of athletics? (2 Viewers)

[Ahsoka]

Or is it a separate category for you?

 

[StrayMixx]

well... it helps you be good at athletics... that's for sure lol

 

[doll]

depends on the sport u do

 

[athenaaa]

Yeah why not

 

[Selfmate]

depends on what one means part of athletics

Athletics is a group of sporting events that involves competitive running, jumping, throwing, and walking. (from google)

and thus one could argue that flexibility is not part of athletics...

the alternative option is asking what are the skills and requirements of being athletic and maybe flexibility is part of tht

Jumping does require some flexibility, depending on what type of track and field you do

so when you say part of you are referring to the skills and requirements component of the "part of" correct?

I just mean overall does someone being more flexible make them any more athletic. There’s definitely more than one right answer

in that sense yes since being more flexible certainly doesn't hinder one's athletic abilities
