New Fitness Book Helps Cheerleaders Stunt Bigger, Fly Higher and Reduce Injuries in Less Time

May 9, 2012 - PRLog -- Raleigh, NC, USA— Strength Coach, Alton Skinner specializes in providing innovative and time efficient training programs for competitive cheerleaders. He recently released his second book entitled “Winning Workouts for Competitive Cheerleaders: Stunt Bigger, Fly Higher and Reduce Injuries in 15 minutes”. Available in both paperback, Kindle and Nook editions, it offers tips, tools and secrets to creating a strong, fit, and winning cheerleading team by implementing short density and odd object training complexes into a cheerleader’s conditioning program.
An odd object is any non-rigid implement with a center of mass that is not fixed and is ever changing. Skinner favors using kettlebells, sand bags and water based implements with his athletes. “The shifting load mimics the exact demands required to perform a stunt, jump or tumbling pass”, the author says.
The density based workouts featured in “Winning Workouts for Competitive Cheerleaders” provides three times the results in a third of the time. A typical gym or health club workout for cheerleaders can involve up to 90 minutes on various machines. Density training focuses on the total amount of work you can do in a set period of time. Instead of counting reps and sets and resting an athlete focuses on either perform more reps in a set time or performing a set number of repetitions in less time.  “Training to improve strength, endurance and flexibility in a defined time mirrors the type of fitness needed to perform the difficult choreography required to win at the elite competition level” says Skinner.
Readers of “Winning Workouts for Competitive Cheerleaders” will find drills that are easy to learn and implement. This training program gives cheer athletes of all ages and skill levels a full body workout in a third of the time of traditional methods, without the need for expensive exercise machines or gym memberships. These types of workouts can easily be performed inside existing cheer gyms or at the athlete’s home. It’s perfect for busy cheerleaders and coaches that don’t have extra time to go to the gym while trying to perfect a routine. Cheerleaders can achieve results with four 15 minute workouts per week to reduce injuries, fly higher, and stunt bigger. Hundreds of photos demonstrate just how easy it is to perform the workout moves.
