Abstract

The article from the Spanish Journal of Physics proposes using gyms as physics laboratories to improve understanding of physical concepts. Scientific-sport activities based on real machines are mentioned, where students apply their knowledge and conduct investigations. It explains how gym machines do not multiply applied force, but rather facilitate its execution and are used to change the direction of forces and focus work on a specific muscle area. It also discusses gym machines with levers and pulleys, and concludes that studying physics in the context of gyms can enrich physics education in a cooperative and entertaining way.
