== MAG scoring and rules ==
Men's floor exercise routines are no longer than 70 seconds, and there is one timekeeper for this event.<ref name=":5">{{Cite web|title=MAG Code of Points 2017-2020|url=https://www.gymnastics.sport/publicdir/rules/files/en_MAG%20CoP%202017%20-%202020.pdf|pages=16, 37–40}}</ref> A loud beep will be sounded to alert gymnasts when they have 10 seconds left within the allocated time to finish their routine before receiving a penalty for exceeding the legal time allowed. Routines are typically made up of acrobatic elements combined with other elements that display the gymnast's strength and flexibility while using the entire floor area.<ref>{{Cite web|title=USA Gymnastics {{!}} Men's Artistic Gymnastics Event Descriptions|url=https://usagym.org/pages/gymnastics101/men/events.html|access-date=2021-05-11|website=usagym.org|archive-date=2023-03-29|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230329191817/https://usagym.org/pages/gymnastics101/men/events.html|url-status=dead}}</ref>

As with Women's Artistic Gymnastics, scores are based on difficulty, form, and overall performance quality, with the overall score being the addition of the D-score and the E-score.<ref name=":5" /> Deductions are taken for lack of flexibility, not using the whole floor area, and pausing before tumbling lines.<ref name=":5" />

=== International level routines ===
A floor routine should contain at least one element from all element groups:<ref name=":5" />
*I. Non-acrobatic elements
*II. Acrobatic elements forward
*III. Acrobatic elements backward, & Arabian elements

The dismount can come from any element group other than group I. Those competing as seniors must include a double salto in their routines.<ref name=":5" />
