Act

Bockenauer started for the gymnastics association Weißensee (also men's gymnastics club Neu-Weißensee 1882 eV), which he made known beyond the borders of Germany with his victories from 1929, and was the operator of a sports shop named after him in Berlin-Weißensee .

Bockenauer was a Berlin and Brandenburg champion in artistic gymnastics and as such took part in the German gymnastics championships in 1931 . In a report in the Ostthüringer Zeitung he is mentioned as the winner of these championships, but this is not to be equated with the championship title ( Kurt Krötzsch became the champion ). On May 2, 1932 he was among the well-known artistic gymnasts who showed their skills in "beauty advertising gymnastics " at the Altenburg State Theater under the auspices of the Altenburg Gymnastics Club. He was also one of the participants in the three-city gymnastics Berlin-Hamburg-Leipzig .

In 1934 he was one of the 65 German applicants for the gymnastics world championships in Budapest. In September of the same year, on the occasion of the 90th anniversary of the Kiel MTV , he did gymnastics as a member of the German team in the Nord-Ostseehalle in Kiel.

His son is the figure skater Bodo Bockenauer .
