A gymnasium,
also
known
as
a gym,
is
an
indoor
location
for athletics.
The
word
is
derived
from
the ancient
Greek term
"gymnasium".[1] They
are
commonly
found
in
athletic
and fitness centers,
and
as
activity
and learning
spaces in
educational
institutions.
"Gym"
is
also
slang
for
"fitness
centre",
which
is
often
an
area
for
indoor
recreation.
A
"gym"
may
include
or
describe
adjacent
open
air
areas
as
well.
In
Western
countries,
"gyms"
(or
pl:
gymnasia")
often
describe
places
with
indoor
or
outdoor
courts
for
basketball,
hockey,
tennis,
boxing
or
wrestling,
and
with equipment and machines used
for
physical
development
training,
or
to
do
exercises.
In
many
European
countries, Gymnasium (and variations of
the
word)
also
can
describe
a
secondary
school
that
prepares
students
for higher
education at
a university,
with
or
without
the
presence
of
athletic
courts,
fields,
or
equipment.
