McQueen: Coach McQueen. If you're a cheerleader a lot of cheerleaders they want to jump higher.
You want to be able to perform better stunts. You're actually getting into a lot of tumbling.
You've got back hand spring, back tucks, scorpions, and all those kinds of things. What I wanted
to talk to you about just for a moment is these kinetic bands.
The key to being a better cheerleader is building your core muscles. That's from your abs down
to your knees. You want to have stronger quadriceps, stronger ham strings, hips, hip flexors. All
your jumps, all your movements are going to come from developing these muscle areas. The
kinetic bands are going to be a great tool for doing all of that. It's not going to build
bulk it's basically going tight and tone and firm and help you develop those muscle.
When you jump you want to be able to just come to right here in a normal stance, be
able to explode and drive up, bring those legs out, bring them back down, or any of
the other routines that you're doing. A back tuck, back hand spring, layout, anything that
you're doing comes from right here. What we want to do is help you away from your actual
performance or your routine to help you to be ready to be able to do those.
If you want to jump higher, if you want better stunts we believe that training with these
kinetic bands, you can do it for just a few minutes at practice, at your training facility.
You can take just a few minutes at home. If you will do some of the squats, squat jumps,
lunges, knee ups, step ups, leg raises that we suggest then you translate that into working
on your toe touches and your scorpion, your back hand spring and your back tuck, we believe
that you're going to become a very successful cheerleader. You're going to love it. Thank
you.
