All-Star What Is The Cheerleader Lifestyle?

[King]

I saw someone tweet about how cheerleading isn't just a sport... it is a lifestyle. And it got me thinking... what are the different parts of the lifestyle?

The bow buying, tape on your nfinity's to hold them together, gym ratting, pushing through injuryian, stalking on fierce boardin lifestyle.

Cheer music blaring in the car with no shame. Days spent in the cheer gym rather than out on the town and preferring just that.

Living life in an 8 count, but starting at 5.

Walking clean in a crowded hallway.

Feeling the need to pull stretches wherever you go.

Days spent in the cheer gym rather than out on the town and preferring just that.

Or 12 hours in a noisy convention centre when the weather is gorgeous outside

Walking clean in a crowded hallway.

Love this one. I always think like when you want to disappear in a crowd if you walk clean no one can see you... when in reality you stand out more.

Wal-Mart stunting, mattress stunting, bed pyramids.

setting your alarm clock to your favourites team music
switching your ringtone to your own teams music
rather sweat and feel pain during practise on saturday night than go out with friends
only buying clothes in your teamcolors
saving all year to go to worlds

Missing family time but not caring because you are with your true family - your cheer family.

-having so many competition and team t-shirts in your closet that you reserve other akward spots in your room for your school clothes.
-being obsessed with sports bras and spanks.

not listening to your doctor once in 10 years because you can't let your team down and you force yourself to work through the injury.

When you see a long stretch ahead of you (empty aisle at the grocery store perhaps) you have a strong urge to throw a crazy pass down the aisle.
