Parallel bars are floor apparatus consisting of two wooden bars approximately 350 centimetres (11 feet 6 inches) long and positioned at 200 cm (6 ft 7 in) above the floor. Parallel bars are used in <a href="Artistic_gymnastics" title="Artistic gymnastics">artistic gymnastics</a> and also for <a href="Physical_therapy" title="Physical therapy">physical therapy</a> and <a href="Exercise" title="Exercise">home exercise</a>.<a href="#cite_note-1">[1]</a> Gymnasts may optionally wear <a href="Grip_(gymnastics)" title="Grip (gymnastics)">grips</a> when performing a routine on the parallel bars, although this is uncommon.

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Apparatus">Apparatus</h2></div>

The apparatus consists of two <a href="Parallel_(geometry)" title="Parallel (geometry)">parallel</a> bars that are held parallel to, and elevated above, the floor by a <a href="Metal" title="Metal">metal</a> supporting framework. The bars are composed of <a href="Wood" title="Wood">wood</a> or other material, with an outer wood coating.<a href="#cite_note-2">[2]</a> The vertical members of the supporting framework are adjustable so the height of the bars above the floor and distance between the bars can be set optimally for each gymnast.<a href="#cite_note-dimensions-3">[3]</a>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2></div>

The parallel bars (in German Barren) were invented by <a href="Friedrich_Ludwig_Jahn" title="Friedrich Ludwig Jahn">Friedrich Ludwig Jahn</a> in <a href="Berlin" title="Berlin">Berlin</a>.<a href="#cite_note-4">[4]</a> In 1819 the first transportable parallel bars were described. In 1856, Hermann Otto Kluge used tubes to adjust the parallel and horizontal bars in Germany. He used them in his gym. In Tolstoy's <a href="Anna_Karenina" title="Anna Karenina">Anna Karenina</a>, published between 1873 and 1877, their use for exercise is mentioned.

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Routines">Routines</h2></div>

A routine performed on the parallel bars must include various elements that depend on the gymnast's competitive level. A typical performance will involve swinging skills in a support position (on the hands), a hanging position, and an upper arm position (resting on the inner bicep). Also, parallel bar routines often feature a strength or static hold skill such as an L-sit or handstand. Each routine ends with a dismount from either the bars' ends or the apparatus's side.

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="International_level_routines">International level routines</h3></div>

A parallel bar routine should contain at least one element from all element groups:<a href="#cite_note-groups-5">[5]</a>

<ul><li>I. Elements in support or through support</li>

<li>II. Elements starting in the upper arm position</li>

<li>III. Long swings in hang, on 1 or 2 bars, and Underswings</li>

<li>IV. Dismounts</li></ul>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Scoring_and_rules">Scoring and rules</h3></div>

Deductions are taken for lack of form and precision of elements performed. There are specific deductions for adjusting the hand position in the handstand and not controlling swing elements;<a href="#cite_note-6">[6]</a> swing type elements should momentarily show handstand.<a href="#cite_note-groups-5">[5]</a>
