HIP FLEXORS STRENGTH TRAINING:

Myosource Cheer Kinetic Bands / Cheer Jump Bands will help stabilize the hips by applying resistance to the muscles in each movement. When you rotate, move, jump, etc. you will need excessively strong hip flexors. The hip flexors are where it all begins. This is probably one of the hardest exercises and when you can master this it the results will be huge improvements in your cheer jumps, cheer stunts and tumbling. Remember to work at 100% for the best results using Cheer Bands. Perform 2-3 sets of 6-8 reps of each exercise. Now lets get started.

1. Put on Myosource Cheer Kinetic Bands

2. Sit on the floor in a straddle

3. While in the straddle position lift the legs up into a stationary position slightly off the ground

4. Keep your back straight – do not lean back

5. Build up to holding 8-10 seconds

6. Next raise up one leg at a time and perform circular motions forward and backward

7. Perform these one leg lift circles for 2-3 sets of 6-8 reps as before

8. The third portion of this exercise it to raise both legs at the same time and perform circular motion forward and backward in sets and reps

Always do sets of resisted and non-resisted exercises. Notice when Ashley unhooked her Kinetic Bands / Cheer Jump Bands she was able to widen her straddle.
