Answer 6

Guys or girls? Male gymnastics are ripped, you probably weren't looking close enough. They keep a very low body-fat and are ripped enough to do their routine with their bodyweight. Weightlifter's are much stronger than you think, some bench press up to 700 pounds, they are over 2x as strong as the male gymnasts, but they also weigh more, their muscle size is cumbersome to the sport, and they have higher body fat, and they don't train in flips and whatnot.

The females have a lot less weight to carry around and are more centered around balance and flowing well so they can be tiny and still use their bodyweight well to do their flips and jumps.

Answer 7

Lol! It's Called Structure Their Body Doesn't Look Strong But They Train And Their Body Structure Is Built To Do Flips And Push Ups And All Kinds Of Stuff :D

Answer 8

Because majority of the time were not tumbling, but conditioning and working out. Conditioning is a daily part of life for gymnasts. Pushups, sit ups running is included in practice.
