It was very very impressive. It was kind of inspiring, since I’m going into my first year on Varsity and it’s very nerve wracking, since, much like her, I don’t have very good tumbling skills. But, we’ve gotta try :)

    It’s the fact that she’s LITERALLY learning the skills for the first time on the sidelines while the other people are performing that blows my mind. Of course Michelle isn’t going to be on par with people who have been doing this since they were in single digits, but she has a determination and energy that you KNOW those coaches have to appreciate.

      Agreed. The backhandsprings alone. Like, it takes a healthy amount of mental strength to jump backwards. Most tumblers (gymnastics or cheer) build up the confidence in their bodies over time. But here she was just doing 4 in a row after learning how to do 2 *that day!*
      And she also performed it all in front of a crowd which is its own mental hurdle

  • @wompwomps
    @wompwomps 4 місяці тому +24

    23:28 is the essence of cheer. Cheer is hard its just like gymnastics or the circus, you need to impress make it look easy and smile through it all. You may be the best person on the team but right before you get on that mat you have some type of overwhelming feeling whether it's fear anticipation or pure excitement. Even more so cause you only have one chance. Once you're done and you ace that performance or competition you feel proud you feel powerful. That nervousness or fear didnt effect you and you showed everyone how badass you are! You trained hard for it and you can finally say that the work was worth it, and that feeling of accomplishment and moment of pride that is cheer.

    I was..."happy" that you didn't make the team. NOT because I thought you were bad or because i was rooting against you...only because it keeps the stakes and skill level really real. They didn't hand you anything just because of your vlogger status. This was a real audition and they were grading you just like they were grading everyone else. You learned and improved so much in what was probably a total of 2 weeks and that is TRULY amazing! Honestly, I think if you went at it full time you could absolutely make a cheer squad within a year if you kept up this level of intense training. You always show us that anything can be achieved with maximum efforts and that is priceless.

Still, she definitely impressed the judges, her partners, us, and even herself. Amazing job for making it THAT far! 👏👏

      She did an amazing job for 10 days. If she couldn't tumble or fly before, that's amazing progress. But as a former college cheerleader and co-captain of my high school cheer team, her flexibility and tumbling wasn't nearly where it needed to be for her to be even considered. She really shouldn't have made it past day 1. But her energy was really good and she's obviously very physically fit. She would make most high school teams I know of and they would feel confident in being able to train her up with more tumbling and flying skills. Unfortunately college teams generally expect you to show up fully trained with the skills they expect and need.

      Those are about endurance, a passive trait you can build over time, tumbling is an actual skill. To get to the level to actually compete you need to be not only extremely talented at learning but also doing it for a minimum of at least 3 years every single day because most of the top cheerleaders start from childhood so they easily have 6-10 years on you

As an athlete, these are the people you want on your team. It doesn’t matter how skilled you are from the beginning, anyone can improve with dedication and the right attitude. On a national team, it makes sense that as someone with less than 2 weeks on training that you won’t be on par (although it was genuinely incredible what she accomplished). However, I would 100% want to dedicate time to someone who is clearly capable both physically and mentally the training to make it onto the team. Both Michelle and her partner had great teamwork and attitude. So much respect to you guys.

      Personally, fear of failure is always what has driven me. In high school I was a very good 800m runner, I even had an almost perfect year where I got 1st place in almost every race I did. The thing with the 800m though is that it's painful, literally sprinting for half a mile is the most painful thing that I have ever done. When I was going into the final 200-300 meters and all that I wanted to do was slow down so that I would stop hurting, I always thought about how much I wanted to win, but also how much I was afraid to lose. Saying that I didn't deserve my success because I used my fear as my motivation is honestly really disheartening and I don't think that it's a very good message. Fear is a big part of what drives us and there is a big difference between people who are afraid to fail so they don't try and people who are afraid to fail so they work harder than everyone else to make sure that they succeed.

      @@lesliepliego2920 Are u being serious, or is that just another unfunny "Ohio" joke?
      I'm only asking because I keep seeing those "Ohio" jokes floating around the internet, and to me, they're just not funny. 🤷🏻‍♂️
      And no, I'm not from Ohio.

      @@SilentAndy How did you get offended for a state you're not even in? Do what your username says and stay silent because you're getting heated just for the sake of an argument. Obviously they're making an suggestion that was way more positive than negative

    Michelle is always impressive, but this one really made me amazed, she did everything so well, for it being out of her wheelhouse and not something she normally does. She learned and executed really well. This was genuinely a fantastic episode, really enjoyed watching~

    Michelle, I've done competitive cheer at 2 gyms, one being a multiple time world champion gym, and I now cheer on a university sideline team. You did amazing and would 10/10 have made my university's team, in fact we would love an athlete like you! In cheer, coachability and focus are two of the most important things and you've demonstrated being amazing at both! This video was awesome!

      (Grammatical error, I originally said “I love this series” but then I changed it to Challenge accepted, so It’s supposed to be “I love Challenge accepted!” I want to edit it, but Michelle hearted my comment and I don’t wanna risk losing that lol (I love this episode, as well!)
