How can i get my toe touch higher for tryouts for april?
for cheerleading
Answers:
What is the maximum amount of times the ball can hit one side of the court?
Assuming that you have done all of the proper stretching (stradle and v-ups, lunges etc). Put 1/2 pound ankle weight on your legs and don't jump without them for about two weeks.if you feel stronger you can use 1 pound weights.When you take the weights off, you will feel so light that your jump WILL be higher!
This always worked for me! Start right away though, you don't want to be sore during your tryouts!
Good luck!
What is your favorite sport out of these? volleyball, soccer, basketball, or softball/baseball?
Personally, I don't let my kids use weights to jumps as I worry they might injure themselves. Groin pulls can be reallly nasty. Rather I have them throw as many jumps as they can every day, plus do all the various other exercises that can be done.I used weights to help with my jumps and saw an awesome difference. Like coach ls said, just start slow and work your way up. I'm working on my pike now!
good luck!
Does anyone know if there is a fall/winter co-ed volley ball league in alton IL?
i went to a few personal training classes for cheerleading they taught me a few things about toe touches last week a few things u could do-there is a atretch where u sit on the flooe put your legs out in toe touch postion then turn your feeet so the inside of your feet are flat on the ground then reach as far out past your fett as u can without lifting ur bottom offf the ground or bending tour leg these are aloso good for stretching for splits
- also our cheerleaders have walked around school with weights around thier ankles that really builds leg muscles to jump higher for your ote touch
- also tighten your stomach a tight stomach is needed for proper jumps u can do sits ups and what not for that!!
GOOD LUCK AND IF U MESS UP DONT WORRY JUST SMILE! PART OF THE POINTS U GET IS NOT ALLBOUT HOW WELL YOU BUT HOW WELL U RECOVER FROM YOUR MESS UPS! YOULL DO FINE!! (ALWAYS SMILE)
