Abstract
The revival of Greek sport in the second century AD coincides with the medical and philosophical critique of Galen against professional athletics, which has nega- tive effects on health and ethical and moral valúes. The treatise Thrasybulus sive utrum medicinae sit an gymnasticae hygieine is a doctrinal justification of the tech- nique of the gymnastes in contrast with that of the paidotribes.
