What Do You Do To Prepare For A Competition???

[On Marz22]

Like what dose your team do (besides practice lol) or just by yourself any special things that you do to get ready for an upcoming comp?

i don't know if it's just me but i have to shave my legs with a new razor.. lol as for the team we say this pray right before we go on

My team prays before we go on. and we do a motivational chant.

 

[stretch!]

I always have a slice of whole wheat toast with peanut butter in the morning, and wear a brand new pair of socks!

- i eat the same thing for breakfast
- i eat a banana before i compete
- i wear lucky underwear
- i listen to cheer music on my ipod but i cant listen to my own
- i do my makeup a certain way
- && i basically just have to do the same thing every comp and if something went wrong change it up until everything is perfect and we hit a good routine

Jada all of us do that at twisters silly! Love you!!! <3


and i am weird i cannot eat in the morning at all my nerves make me sick =( but i listen to the same playlist on my ipod every competition

 

[ohhh lindss]

When I cheered, I HAD to have a plain bagel, toasted, with plain cream cheese. No questions asked. My mom once had to drive around for an hour or so just so we could find somewhere to get one at an out of town competition. We'd do all we could to get it. And then after that, I couldn't eat until after I competed. Not that I didn't want to, but my body just wouldn't let me. Even if we competed at 9 at night, I wouldn't eat.

Also, I had lucky undies; a pair for day one and a pair for day two (on one day comps, I wore the day two ones.

A new pair of socks is essential ;-)

I cant talk to anyone before I go on the mat. Every single time I compete, the 2 minutes before I go on a ask myself 'Why the hell do I do cheer I hate this', the 2 minutes after leaving the mat I ask myself 'How am I ever going to stop doing this?!'

First thing is we pray. Do some props checking and listen to our cheermix.

I take a bubble bath before day 1. No. Questions. Asked.
I will look sucky if I don't.

 

[Whitters?!]

I'm ridiculously superstitious when it comes to comps...

I can only eat half of something for breakfast. It doesn't matter what it is or how hungry I am, it can only be half of it. Then no more eating until after we compete. Gatorade before you go into warm ups is always a plus but not required...

When I'm in warm ups I have to re-tie my shoes at least 8 times.. I had a shoe come halfway off in the middle of a stunt one year and I don't want that to happen again lol. Plus I have this strange phobea that I can't tumble if my shoes are loose. Listening to cheer mixes are also a must :)
