The 1904 Games had a program of events spread out over several months, and the gymnastics competition was no different. The International Olympic Committee considers two sets of events as "Olympic":
The individual all-around was a combination of the gymnastic triathlon competition and the athletics triathlon. The team competition was a combination of individual scores from the individual all-around.[2] The parallel bars, horizontal bar, vault, and pommel horse scores for each gymnast were summed to get the combined score.
119 gymnasts from 4 nations competed.
