The Cheer Doctor

My why? I want cheerleaders to be able to fall in love with the gym in the same way I got to. Face less injuries, find more confidence and excel as an athlete. That’s my why

Sorry what was that? Too busy lifting heavy to make my stunts stronger so I couldn’t hear that.

Nothing replaces the feeling of flying in a basket ✨

Adaptive workout the other day💪

Why does cheer practice, lift and condition so much? Because the hours and hours of training are truly worth those few minutes on the mat and the field.

I see a lot of wrist pain in cheerleaders.

If your body isn’t ready to handle the load / impact of stunting / tumbling, it will often show up in the wrists or ankles.

The answer to minimizing your wrist pain isn’t to just increase wrist strength or shoulder mobility but rather to work on all of these fundamental skills to improve your body’s ability to transfer force.

April fools joke may not have gone well, but today’s lift sure did 🫡
