Totally, initially i thought ok cheerleader doing flips etc, and damn the hand switch thing got me. Don't hear of cheerleadin here so maybe im just more impressed than others.

I have had several football players comment that the male cheerleaders can bench as much if not more than the football players.

[–]snorlz [スコア非表示]  (6子コメント)

does that surprise you? every male cheerleader i know is like a powerlifter/strongman type guy. their job is to throw people in the air and hold them up. its a strength sport

[–]herotonero 45ポイント46ポイント  (4子コメント)

I think guys in cheerleading are hugely under-appreciated. It requires a huge amount of shoulder and core stability to do what that guy did. I've worked out for 7 years and definitely appreciate that (and can't do it).

I'd say he's far more impressive than the girl here

[–]thecommentisbelow [スコア非表示]  (2子コメント)

Personally, its not that I don't appreciate the athletic ability of cheerleaders, it's that they're distracting. Get out of the way and let me watch the game.

[–]QuasarSandwich [スコア非表示]  (1子コメント)

You don't really get cheerleaders in British sport (it's crept in to a certain extent but nothing like the US) but the whole concept used to strike me as seriously condescending: "We don't trust you to know when or how to show your approval, so we have organised a troupe of young women to assist you."

Then I realised - pretty late - that it was just an excuse to get attractive girls in skimpy outfits bending over in front of men while the latter drink beer and indulge in some very deviant fantasies, and it all suddenly made total sense.

Tl;dr: I am obviously intellectually subnormal.

The man's job is ten times harder than the girls.

[–]BuzzNitro 62ポイント63ポイント  (5子コメント)

I'd argue they are equally hard, just different. Sure the dude has to chuck the chick up there, but when you start working on harder inverted stunts (Like spring full-ups, high-to-high full arounds, double-ups) the top's job gets way harder. I've worked with girls that do way more to make the stunts hit than I ever could. A really great girl can make even a mediocre dude look good.

[–]Mark_Zajac 6ポイント7ポイント  (0子コメント)

I'm just as more impressed by the guy

[–]BonkeyKongCountry 2ポイント3ポイント  (2子コメント)

The most impressive part was the first contact that he made with her. He pushed her feet down right before she jumps to add some rotational velocity.

[–]BuzzNitro 5ポイント6ポイント  (1子コメント)

Nah that's just the angle it was filmed at. His job is to wait until her feet hit the ground and then puts his hand right in the small of her back. The hard part is not getting smashed in the face with her feet before they land!

Alright, first I want you to put on this cheerleading uniform. Then you're going to do some flips while I lift you into the air.

I was going to say the same thing. Anytime I go to a game they introduce them after winning some kind of championship. And they say we are only a basketball school.

I've heard that their female cheerleads feet cannot be over a certain size (6?) so that they can easily fit in the palm of the male cheerleaders hands.

[–]happilythree [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

I don't know about feet size, but my cousin is on the team and there are height requirements for the fliers.

[–]luhumushu [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

There's a height, weight, and feet size limit. My freshman year roomie was on the team.

[–]bullintheheather [スコア非表示]  (1子コメント)

You know what they say you can tell about a girl by the size of her feet, right? Right?

[–]mayjay15 [スコア非表示]  (3子コメント)

6 is super tiny. I've got smaller than average feet, and I'm usually 7-7 1/2. Maybe they just look for some girls on the team to have smaller feet for that purpose, but I can't imagine they'd turn down an otherwise perfect person for having slightly too large feet.

[–]potterHead1121 [スコア非表示]  (2子コメント)

Haha, I have a size 6 foot. The only reason I said I heard that is because there was a girl who I went to high school with a year above me who really wanted to be a UK cheerleader but her feet were at 7 1/2. She tried out, did really well but didn't make the team. She cheered fore Tennessee instead. She could have just made that up as the reason she didn't make the team though _(ツ)_/¯

I know people hate on it, but cheerleading is a much harder sport than people realize.

[–]jruhlman09 225ポイント226ポイント  (37子コメント)

I think the reason for most of the hate is a lot of people don't differentiate between competitive cheerleading, and sideline cheerleading. When they say "cheerleading isn't a sport" they are referring to the latter, picturing people standing, leading cheers, and waving pom-poms.

I think most people would have a hard time watching competitive cheerleading and saying it doesn't involve a lot of skill and athleticism.

[–]DeadNoobie 144ポイント145ポイント  (20子コメント)

Actually cheerleading brands and companies (like Varisty Brands) lobby to keep cheerleading from being officially recognized as a sport because it keeps them from having to adhere to regulations that sports must follow.

It lets the brands form their own regulatory committee's with little to no oversight for things like safety,insurance, and accountability. They don't even ban coaches who are convicted of sexually assaulting their charges.

As usual, its all about the money.

It's the most recent one I could find with a good amount of information. There's some documentaries about it as well that could probably be found on youtube or something.

[–]couIombs 2ポイント3ポイント  (1子コメント)

For anybody looking for more information on the bullshit surrounding Varsity Brands, Penn and Teller did a GREAT expose on them on their show Bullshit!

[–]GeekAesthete 9ポイント10ポイント  (1子コメント)

The name is really the problem. When you speak of "leading cheers", it sounds like something that literally anyone could do. This, on the other hand, is some hardcore gymnastics; the "cheering" part has nothing to do with what makes it impressive.

[–]Duff_McLaunchpad 1ポイント2ポイント  (0子コメント)

Ya, cheerleading is the only "sport" that depends on an entirely different, (and main event) sport to be played.

[–]Paydrone [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

I have a lot of people ask me if I hold pom poms and sing songs, hahaha.

[–]highphive [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

While its entirely semantics, I think it's most correct to not consider cheerleading a sport. To me, a sport requires directly competitive play.

Competitive cheerleading seems to me like it's better classified as, well, a competition. A team does a routine which is then subjectively scored (albeit on objective baselines).

I don't think this distinction would be problematic for anyone if people didn't treat the word "sport" like its some kind of status symbol. Just because your activity isn't a sport doesn't mean it's not super hard or grueling or you don't work as hard as people in sports. Being designated as a sport isn't an achievement, there's no reason to want it (in my opinion).

[–]BazTehBarrett 26ポイント27ポイント  (2子コメント)

How is this Cheerleading a seperate sport? It's acrobatics/Gymnastics in sports team attire.

It's also incredibly easy to injure yourself doing cheerleading. It's a difficult and dangerous sport.

[–]AlchomicalAstronaut 3ポイント4ポイント  (34子コメント)

It's a sport that requires incredible strength, skill, balance, coordination and flexibility. I dont know why it gets hate either (the other comment sums it up well). Edit: Just like to clarify that I think it should at least be respected and acknowledged, rather than simply hated.

[–]p_ql 14ポイント15ポイント  (33子コメント)

It's not a sport if the score is subjective.

[–]LordFauntloroy 11ポイント12ポイント  (1子コメント)

Gotten in dozens of arguments with friends over this but I have to agree entirely. Painting can require immense physical strength and stamina if you make it. Sculpting does depending on your medium. If the victory condition is subjective, it's art.

You Go Team..

That girl has to have strength and balance as much as that guy has to have strength and balance. Neither could pull off that stunt without the other having the same level of experience and athleticism. And the trust..

[–]chrom_ed [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

Definitely a team effort. Obviously the guy needs more strength and the woman needs more balance, but the number of people trying to compare the two quantitatively seems... A little suspicious I guess?

[–]snorlz [スコア非表示]  (6子コメント)

I mostly agree with you but the guy is doing a lot more work in this routine. The girl just mainly has to stay perfectly balanced- which is quite hard- but the dude is throwing her from hand to hand, spinning her, perfectly catching her feet with one arm, etc. I'm sure that girl is super skilled and a great gymnast, but shes probably the more replaceable of the two here.

AFAIK, once she's up there, the guy is doing the balancing mostly. The girl should remain fixed with a stiff spine as to not throw him off. Two people trying to balance themselves separately will offset each other then down you go.
