Lots of cardio. Running, jogging, swimming. Since cheerleaders use their legs, try doing Squats, Lunges, and Calf Raises with light weight. That will help you get toned alot!

I have already made the cheerleading team, but I need a few good workouts to do during the summer, to keep me flexible and help me with my jumps. I already know about crunches, and leg lifts. Anything else that anyone can think of that will strengthen my leg and abdomen muscles, and tone my arms would be A-W-E-S-O-M-E!!!! Thanks for all of the answers that I will recieve.

Look at seventeen.com they have great workouts. Since you made the cheerleading team you should try and get into something that will be like a back bone to it, like gymnastics, or for many cheerleaders they would choose tumbling because gymnastics uses the bar and vault tumbling doesn’t. But if you do tumbling that will get you ready and you could learn more moves and aton of cool things. But I think that stretching and running a bit will be pretty basic.
Good luck cheerleading. =]
