vocal gymnastics

A style of singing in current popular music, specifically R&B, where the singer incorporates a lot of "runs" and extra notes to showcase their vocal abilities, resulting in the singer looking like he/she is trying too hard to sound super-talented. Often accompanied by dramatic hand movements in synch with the notes being sung.
The version of "Lady Marmalade" sung by Christina Aguilera, Pink, Mya, etc. is nothing but a bunch of vocal gymnastics.

Rhythmic gymnastics

Rhythmic gymnastics is one of the hardest sports with the most intense training regimen. Ballet, flexibility, strength and coordination these gymnasts need it all! The gymnasts compete in stunning leotards (usually 4) which altogether can cost over £3,000!!

Rhythmic gymnasts are easily the most talented athletes and can make catching a hoop and bending in all directions look elegant and flow beautifully in a routine!

Definitely the most underrated gymnasts in a sport which is no where near easy!!
In rhythmic gymnastics the gymnasts don't do backflips so don't even go there!!

gymnastics

A sport which is divided into two different parts : Artistic Gymnastics -the most popular sport at the Olympics after Athletics - and Rhythmic Gymnastics - also in the Olympics but not as popular and classified as a different sport.

In artistic gymnastics there are 8 different apparatus - Vault, Uneven Bars, Beam and Floor for the women and Floor, Pommel Horse, Rings, Vault, Parallel Bars and High Bar for the men.

Exercises include multiple somersaults/somersaults with twists, jumps and dance elements. Requires great power, flexibility, determination and will power, and a high level of fitness.

Rhythmic Gymnastics, or RSG for short, in a nutshell, involves women - men don't do RSG - who are too tall for AG bending their bodies into grotesque shapes while chucking either a ball, club, rope or ribbon in the air. Requires great flexibility. Judging at international competitions is often biased and fixed, and the very top gymnasts always seem to get temporarily banned for drug abuse...
