In my routine, we are doing an assisted toss to extension. The girls that are basing me are very strong and work extremely well together. I need to increase my leg strength to help push off and get to that extension. Would doing certain exercises help me build enough strength to get my butt up...

I have tryouts on Sunday and I do have a back handspring but we usually warm up with back walkovers and yea... any tips for getting...

I know that when you fly it is very important to stay tight and hold up your weight. Since being tight requires squeezing your muscles and it is easier to fly someone who is tight, do muscles make you lighter? Of course weighing yourself you would see you are heavier with muscle rather than if...

I am just curious as to what some colleges use for a strength and conditioning program for cheer. Does your team hit the weight room and lift or just come in for some no weight workouts?

I am a male who weighs about 170lbs with medium strength, I have never been involved in cheerleading, but my girlfriend (125lbs) is trying to involve me and wants me to toss to hands her. I have been able to hold her legs stabilized near my chest, but when I try to extend upwards I can't extend...

I just recently had a spinal surgery and was able to start tumbling today. I haven't been able to tumble because of pain/doctors orders for over a year. I have been tumbling since I was five (now 14). I still have all of the muscle memory but I've lost strength in my arms/legs, and my tumbling...

I don't have wrist problems, but I know it's common for wrists to hurt while practicing more elite stunts like full ups and such, where your hands are twisted in weird directions. What are some ways I can strengthen them so I can avoid pain and be a better base?

Hey all, so I help to coach my high school's varsity team (I know this is all-star fourms but there seem to be more people here than over at the high school one) and I've run into a few little problems with their flexibility. First off, bow and arrows. One girl can do a bow and arrow very well...

Hi, my daughter is a flyer. She is pretty flexible, but really needs to improve her strength. I have heard planks are good for flyers. How long should you hold them & how often should you do them? What else do you recommend. Please be specific as to how many, how long, how many repetitions...

I'm trying to formulate a Strength/Flex routine for my flyers this year for each practice, as last season we had 3 with good flexibility(could be better though) and 2 with IMO ugly flexibility ( "scorps", low heel stretches). As coaches, we told the girls to stretch every day, etc. etc. but as...
