Looking for the best way to jump higher to be a cheerleader? There are numerous programs and tricks that will help you gain more height while jumping, it is what you do with them that will make or break you. Find a program or set it up and give it time to make it work. If you don’t make any profit in, say, a month, try something different.
Test how high you can jump first thing in the morning. Find a wall that has enough room to do jumps as well. Stand sideways to the wall with a crayon or creator in the hand closest to the wall. Jump as high as you can and mark the wall while reaching for your arm as far as you can.
You can do this 3 times to get an average height. Check your progress every two weeks to see if you are jumping higher. If your jumps get shorter and shorter, do not exercise for a couple of days before testing so your legs are rested.
As for the best exercise to use, it is the squat. If you have pictures of great weightlifters with heavy weights, this will not be you. You can start by squatting with just your body weight. Three sets of 10-15 reps each would be a good start. As you get stronger, do more reps on your third set up to 20.
You can hold some dumbbells in your hands for extra weight, if you have access to a bar, this would be best if you are trying for heavier weights.
While doing squats, stand with your feet shoulder-width apart. As you go down, try to go low enough so that your thighs are parallel to the ground. Don’t let your knees roll forward from your toes and shift more weight back onto your heels. Keep your back straight and look straight ahead.
