At practice conditioning tips!!!!!!!

 Throughout the year while at practice running should be a big part of practice.
o Warming up with a jog for about 10 min to get your blood flowing and get your muscles lose before stretching.
o To help improve endurance a good technique to use help with stunts during a routine have the team do some sprints or run or even do up downs and then without resting do any stunts that are in your routine or even basic stunts. The reason behind this is because it helps during a routine your body is going to be tired but if you do stunts when tired you will be ready to hit it during a full run through.
o At the end of every practice the team should have to condition for a good 30 min or better to help build stamina and endurance for the difficult skills with in the routine
o Doing sprints or suicides will help improve endurance ability.
o Also do jump drills at the beginning of practice to help improve jumps is a necessity for every practice.
o Doing jumping drills back and forth on the lines to keep heart rate up and in the mean time doing pushups and abs in between running drills will build strength for the skills that are to be performed in the routine.
o Keep up with conditioning all year long it will be beneficial in the end!!! And you will feel better about your self

 Remember when working out as much as cheerleaders do you have to eat right and make sure you are drinking lots of water throughout the day.
