The composition of the floor exercise in women's artistic gymnastics has changed over the years, due to the changes in the Code of Points (book of rules in artistic gymnastics). This paper aimed to present the changes in the composition of the floor exercises, performed by apparatus finalists, at the Olympic Games that were held in 2000, 2004, 2008, 2012, and 2016 (N = 40). Also, the aim was to determine how much the presence of a particular skill in the exercise contributes to the values of the Difficult Score, Execution Score, and Final Score, on the floor. Based on the obtained results, it was determined that floor finalists exercises have experienced a decrease in a number of acrobatic elements characterized by multiple rotations around one axis of the body and an increase in frequencies of acrobatic elements characterized by simultaneous multiple rotations around the transverse and longitudinal axes of the body. From the field of rhythmic elements, obtained results present disappearance of low-amplitude jumps, a decrease in jumps characterized only by high amplitude, and an increase in the frequency of high-amplitude jumps with simultaneous longitudinal rotations of the body. The ANOVA found significant differences between Difficulty Scores, Execution Scores, and Final Scores over the entire analyzed period and the Bonferroni Post-Hoc analysis found that differences in all scores primarily stemmed from a similar scoring system that was valid at OI2000 and OI2004 compared to the scoring system that was valid at OI2008, OI2012 and OI2016.
