The biomechanics problem: all of the arm swinging makes her drop her chest. This changes the mechanics of the jump, essentially limiting her jump height and air time…this literally makes it harder for her to get around because gravitational pull is constant.
@@Evelynw_17 all sports have applications of: biomechanics, kinesiology, center of gravity and momentum. But maybe you’re right, The 30+ gymnasts and cheerleaders that I have coached/co-coached into college scholarships was probably just plain dumb luck.
@@Evelynw_17 ok…my patience is variable sometimes. These concepts are a bit more difficult to completely explain without visuals…and a car accident has restricted me to a wheelchair recently. But, when the chest drops and she starts to jump, it forces the shoulders to travel backwards and the hips to travel forward. This literally limits the ability to jump UP. It WILL create a slightly quicker rotation, but she still has dramatically less time to get around. But, it’s rarely if ever an equal exchange of air time and rotation speed…so, it’s rarely effective. It’s common in cheerleading in order to eliminate a perceived fear, but it’s actually more dangerous. Clear proof of this is to look at how many cheerleaders are wearing braces and support devices compared to gymnasts. So, they do this to eliminate fear, but actually create a greater risk of injury. This is not me having an irrational dislike of cheerleaders or cheer coaches as I was a cheerleader in high school and college. So, I literally have significant experience and pretty significant success in both sports. The last gym that I coached at had both programs in national championships EVERY year.
Love her comfort, never gave up
Why was my brain telling me she was about to do a standing full🤨🤨🤨🤨
Sameee
She’s so adorable
Beautiful! ❤ Great job and Great Coach! 👏👏
GOOD JOB LITTLE PIECES!😇
Great Job Kiddo!!! You NAILED IT!!!
Good!
YESSSSSS!
She is so cute❤
😍😍🤩🤩
She's sooo cute

I didn’t know this was a science lesson 😭

@@petercullipher9438 I was just joking and I also don’t know what any of that means

So she should just stand still instead of swinging her arms to go up & not back? My daughter is T&T.
Is that the one girl that was doin* it on the mat
