The deceleration experienced by the gymnast is the 9 times of the acceleration due to gravity.
Now from Newton`s first law, the net force on gymnast,

Here, W is the weight of the gymnast and a is the acceleration experienced by the gymnast (
acceleration due to gravity)
Therefore,
OR 
Given
and
Substituting these values in above formula and calculate the force exerted by the gymnast,
