„Zehn Minuten mit Spitzenturner Adalbert Dickhut“ – Sendung vom 18. 8. 1961
Even during the Nazi era, television sport meant that those who watched the program on television should not remain passive. Before the Second World War, gymnastics courses were an integral part of the television programs offered by the state-run "Reichs-Rundfunk-Gesellschaft". Their programs were called "Rundfunkgymnastik - ferngesehen" (Radio gymnastics - watching TV), "Körperschulung für die Frau" (Body training for women) or "Kindergymnastik" (Children's gymnastics). On post-war "German television", a top gymnast began in 1955 with the program bearing his name: "Five minutes with Adalbert Dickhut", which was soon changed to "Ten minutes with Adalbert Dickhut". It was aimed at "boys and girls", as Dickhut says in the introduction, and ran for 15 years in the afternoon at 5.00 pm. It was about "body-building exercises", which Dickhut demonstrated with a group of children - three boys and one girl - in the studio in front of two electronic cameras and which were to be practiced at home by those watching. The only equipment allowed was what could be found in almost every household. And jumps should be easy, because - as Dickhut says - "we don't want the neighbors' ceilings to fall down". The gymnast repeatedly addresses the situation in which the children watching may find themselves. In the gym, the back should be stretched and not bent forward as if you wanted to sit on the couch with "mom" and maybe watch TV from there. So they hop, jump and crawl on command. To compensate for the postural damage caused by watching television for too long.
