So i guess men's gymnastics violates this?
No I misquoted. I think that rule is specifically for Acrobatics and I'm not sure if they specify "sprung" for the other disciplines. && as ScottyB clarified I was def thinking hardwood floor, rather than matted non-sprung.
What do you think the height of a standing full is because I'm pretty sure the "critical height" is higher than that of a 4'10" girl not even getting that far off the ground.
If a layout is not done at a minimum of chest to shoulder height, then it needs to worked and improved on. Preferably, a layout should be done above head height and ideally done above the height of the hands lifted straight above the head.
In the critical height study, critical height is measured from the bottom of the headform to the ground (from the bottom of a persons chin to the floor). Anyone taller than like 4.5ft has their head above critical height without having to jump at all.
