Stretch A LOT. If your team practices anywhere where there’s a trampoline(or if you have one at your house, work them on the tramp. Or a springboard. Anything that can help you bounce basically.)

Would my cheerleading jumps increase height in a week?

Question by Vanessa: Would my cheerleading jumps increase height in a week?
I only need one more week till cheerleading tryouts is there anything i can probably do to increase the height of my jumps a tad bit or maybe even clean them. Also another question i wanted to ask do muscles help the height of your jumps?

Best answer:

Answer by KierstyyyBabyy(:
Yes, muscle does help the height of your jump, do a lot of sit ups to tighten your abs .
your ab muscles are what bring the height in your jump .
also before the jump don’t double bounce . stay on the tip or your toes, then go into the jump .
and stay tight, don’t lean forward . and look forward .

but it is possible .

Q&A: How do i have perfect cheerleading jumps by April?

Question by Lucky: How do i have perfect cheerleading jumps by April?
I am going to try out for cheerleading in April. I need to have all my jumps perfect before April.ANY HELP??

Best answer:

Answer by cheerQueenCG
Always stretch out your legs. Next, just put your arms in a ‘T’ motion. Keep your legs straight and point you toes as you lift them up behind your arms without bending them or moving your arms.
This helps your jumps by making it easier to pull up your legs
Hope this helps!
