Improve Fitness/Conditioning

Conditioning for cheer is broken down into two categories; Gameday and performance conditioning.  For Gameday, it is important to have a good base of aerobic endurance to allow cheerleaders to maintain high energy and precision throughout long games.  In regards to performances, we cater conditioning to reflect the 2:30 time frame of the routines.  Since performances are packed with stunts involving muscles throughout the entire body, the conditioning involves full body movements and transitions that challenge muscular endurance.
