  JAMFIT/MOH NATIONAL CHEERLEADING PROGRAMME: Exercise to Improve your Motions  

Exercises to Improve your Motions:

  • Arm strengthening - Do arm strengthening exercises like push ups and weight lifting. They offer some great ways to improve the strength in your arms and shoulders. Good motions are made with strong arms.

  • Hit your motions quickly - Then hold it for about 30 seconds as tight as you can, tightening your butt muscles when you do this. As that will tighten your other muscles.

  • Work in front of a mirror or video yourself - Stand in front of a mirror and watch as you hit your motions. Look for arm positions, fist position and any extra unnecessary movements. Then close your eyes and hit the motion again. Open your eyes and look in the mirror to see how you did.

  • Even when practicing other things, be sure you’re completing your motions.
    Don’t get lazy and halfway do them. Always complete each motion to the end.

  • Practise with your squad - Coordinate your motions and make sure you’re doing them in unison.

  • Most motions have an opposite or reverse corresponding motion. Be sure to practise both.

  • Use your imagination you can combine motions. Try different and unique sequences. Be creative.
