Not too many facts to go on but I remember:
1. Beginning had a male gymnast working on the highbar w/ plenty of chalk
2. The body of the story takes place in a european town (narrow alleys and made of stone) and he uses his gymnast high bar abilities in the end.
3. I remember seeing it at my Aunt's house in the late 80's.

Gymkata (1985)
-from IMDB
Johnathan Cabot (Kurt Thomas) is a champion gymnast. In the tiny, yet savage, country of Parmistan, there is a perfect spot for a "star wars" site. For the US to get this site, they must compete in the brutal "Game". The government calls on Cabot, the son of a former operative, to win the game. Cabot must combine his gymnastics skills of the west with fighting secrets of the east and form GYMKATA!
