1) Swimming : Swimming is a prehistoric invention. It developed spontaneously all over the world. Amongst Egyptian hieroglyphs from the old kingdom period( C.3500 - C.2500 B.C) is one that clearly depicts a swimmer using over arm technique; it might have originated in Egypt 5000 years ago, but just as possibly have been used by others well before that. 


But it is far more likely that the Egyptians have a real world first in their formal learn-to-swim classes conducted in the middle Kingdom Period( C. 2150 - 1950 B.C) . The first record of them is by Kheti, a prince of Suit, who wrote that when he was little , the Pharaoh made him go to swimming lessons with the royal children. 

2) Diving high : Diving in was made into an athletic display by the Classical Greeks. Depictions of people diving appear on a number of Greek objects d'arts from the 400 B.C on wards. Amongst them is a picture of the high diving board, Greek invention of the Classical period. 

3) Weight training: Boxers in North eastern Italy began to use hand - held weights in their training programs at least as early as the 12th century B.C Judging by illustrations on bronze vessels of that time, the weights were purpose made in the modern dumbell shape, and used in arm exercises just as they are today. 

4) Kung Fu: kungfu Kung Fu began early in China's Ming Dynasty(1368 AD - 1644 ) as a system of gymnastic training primarily intended to benefit health. Because  many exercise involved opponents tackling each other , it developed into a competitive martial art. The Manual of Nourishing the Life by Gymnastics, a book of uncertain date, probably around 1400 , is the earliest of many Kung fu textbooks. Kung fu is one of a series of martial arts for individual combatants without weapons. It began over a thousand years ago in China and spread early on to Japan, where Karate and Ju-jitsu evolved. Judo is the  most recent derivative of the tradition. Judo ' the gentle way' was developed by Jigoro Kano. He opened a judo academy in Tokyo in 1882, when he was only just twenty-three. 

The term judo was already used for a method in ju - jitsu, which Jigoro learnt as a teenager. He worked out his new system , based on ju-jitsu, in the early 1880s , and it proved instantly successful when his academy opened. Four years later, graduates from this academy defeated ju - jitsu exponnents in a public match.
