In ancient Greece, games, wrestling and gymnastics were once listed as educational contents. From 17 to 18, hunting, swimming, mountain climbing, running and jumping were added to western education, but there was no unified name. At the end of 18, German J.C.F Gutz Jordan Mutch once classified and integrated these activities, which were collectively called "gymnastics". /kloc-in the 9th century, on the one hand, a new gymnastics system was formed in Germany, which was widely spread in Europe and America; On the other hand, many new sports have emerged one after another. In the school, more and more sports beyond the original scope of gymnastics have been gradually developed, and a new concept of "physical education is education through physical activities" has been established. Therefore, for a considerable period of time, the words "gymnastics" and "sports" coexisted and mixed with each other, and it was not until the beginning of the 20th century that they were gradually called "sports" internationally.
