TIP #1: GO IN WITH CONFIDENCE

Confidence is key! Confidence plays a huge part in your success as a cheerleader. Keep your head up, make eye contact and, of course, smile! We want you to feel on top of the world and shine like the champ you are!

So how do you remind yourself, "I'm confident, I've got this, I am CHEERFIT Strong" . . . with a visual reminder!

• Grab a hair elastic (a different color than the normal black hair elastic) or get yourself our official #CHEERFITSTRONG Bands (CLICK HERE TO GET YOUR BANDS)

• Put the bands on your wrist and use this band as a visual reminder

• Every time you see the band, tell yourself, "I'm confident, I'm CHEERFIT Strong!

• Wear this band as much as you can – school, practice, privates, hanging with friends – and every time you see the band, remind yourself "I'm CHEERFIT Strong!"

TIP #2: FOCUS ON THE SKILLS THAT YOU'RE COMFORTABLE DOING – NOT NEW SKILLS THAT YOU'RE NERVOUS ABOUT

Why stress about getting that new skill? Your coaches know what you can do and what you are capable of. When you are over-focused on having to have this 1 new skill you tend to overstress and only think about getting that one skill, which causes you to lose focus on what you CAN DO.

Focus on what you can do and be confident in yourself – you will leave a better impression with the judges and you won't add additional pressure on yourself during an already stressful situation.

TIP #3: PUMP YOURSELF BEFORE WALKING THROUGH THE DOOR AT TRYOUTS

Be your own cheerleader!

Pump yourself up the night before tryouts AND definitely before heading into tryouts! We love to listen to fun music, dance like no one's watching AND do mountain climbers! This exercise is amazing because you can go as fast as you want – release any stress or nerves by doing this exercise.

As you do the exercise pump yourself up – tell yourself "I've got this, I am amazing, I can't wait for tryouts". Stand up, shake it off, SMILE, and head into tryouts feeling on top of the world!

TIP #4: FOCUS ON FITNESS

Say it with me, "fitness build strength and strength builds confidence"! We can not stress enough how important fitness is – both physically and mentally! You want to focus on exercises that will help give you the strength and flexibility to advance your jumps, tumbling, and stunting skills! Start early, have a plan and get your cheer workouts on!
