    for those who have trouble getting higher:
    remember, move your legs, don’t apply all the pressure in your hips. KEEP YOUR CHEST UP!!

      Morgan Davidson try stretching first splits both sides then get into a straddle and reach over onto both sides what helped me get mine was every night i set a timer for five minutes and i stretch my legs onto a flat wall doing a middle split and reaching forward with my arms this will create your hips to be more flexible if it burns its working do this and you’ll get it in no time:) if i could i would show pics of my one month progress but keep trying:)

      @elianna_ecc 5 років тому +1

      Yeah, I'd recommend trying out a toe touch on a trampoline first. You don't want to really focus on touching your toes, just focus on bringing your legs into a straddle in midair. The straddle position would be where you sit on the ground and spread your legs as wide as you can without lifting them off the ground. You'll need to do this in midair while jumping.

    There are long term solutions (?) like exercising, eating food, etc. Looking for short-terms. Or maybe inspirations like maybe someone of you are like the present me but can now do these jumps and stunts with training?

    • @Dinoattack
      @Dinoattack 2 роки тому +1

      You can have a verry good looking toe touch without being super flexible. Toe touches are kinda an illusion if you keep ur chest up
      And roll your toes/hips back towards the wall behind you it will look higher I know people who can’t do the splits but have hyper extended toe touches

  • @Spring-Tumbling1
    @Spring-Tumbling1 Рік тому +5

    every cheer team has different ways to start their toe touch for example the Stingrays ( a competitive cheer team ) starts with a in a clap then their hands out in front of them then they bring it to a low rocket into the T. If your trying out for a cheer team I ( a Competitive cheerleader) would recommend a classic start which would look like hands in a clap on one while you squat with your knees together then bring you hands up by your temple on two almost like a touch down but with your hands together. After that you just bring your hands straight down into the same squatting position one thing to consider is absolutly NEVER cross your hands in the low rocket the people in the video tell you to but it is not good and it makes you toe touch lookk pretty messy when your are preforming.
    A few tips are to streach every night Always warmup before doing a toe touch keep your chest up it will help you to bring yoi legs up higher and watch toe touch strenthing workouts it will help alot I recommend Anna Mcnulty. Good luck to every one ❤

    This isn’t a normal setup for a jump. Most jumps you squat a little and do a clap with your elbows touching, put your hands over your head still in the clap, squat again and bring your hands down at an angle in front of you, circle your ARMS around (not in a clap anymore) and do your jump!
