All About Cheerleading I want to try out for the JV cheerleading team at my school. What do I need to know how to do to make the team? What should I practice doing? I'm trying to get in shape for it right now. I'm 5'5 and 140 pounds, and I plan on loosing more, but how much more would be good? What should I absolutely not do if I want to be a good cheerleader? Thank you so much!

I'm 5'5 and 140lbs. But Im Not Fat, I have a good body. So if your like me, and your not fat, you really dont need to lose any more weight. JV needs to know all the same the varsity does. So make sure your motions are sharpe, and stif. At my school we toss people in the air. You'll probably be a base, thats what I am. Make sure your strong! Make sure you do atleast every jump 10-20 times everyday. If you REALLY want your jumps better, Sit on the ground and open your legs. Place your hands infront of yourself close to your body. And left your right leg and move it backwords. Do this 10 times, Then the left leg. Then you can repet, but its hard the first couple times. This will help your toetouches soo much. They will help you get your legs more opened.
I know for some schools, you have to have a backhand spring. So maybe start taking gymnastics and work your butt off. If you dont need one then still try to get into gymnastics. I hope I heled<33 && Good luck!! ]
i woud enroll in tumbling classes somewhere close to you and tell them you want to make cheerleading, it will take a few weeks but work on back handspring, front tuck,
then on your own ir with a friend practice
being loud, facial expressions,jumps,splits,being tight, looking cute,dancing ]
Cartwheel, somersault, roundoff, bridge, maybe back hand spring, front handspring maybe?
Always smile, never frown. Be really loud.
Dont keep your hair down either.
Good luck! ]
