Does Cheerleader = athlete? Have you seen a double full? This past weekend in Dallas we had the pleasure to meet hundreds of great coaches and gym owners. A highlight of our weekend was getting to go to Spirit of Texas and apply our 3D movement screen with Maddie Hayes, Christian Walker and a few more elite athletes. Wait did I say? Elite Athlete? Cheerleaders? Note: Christian Walker's dad is Herschel Walker, famous football player, who played for the Dallas Cowboys. I'm saying this because of an interview he did with his son. "I didn't know what that [competitive cheer] was. Then he's [Christian], 'Oh, no. People turnin' flips and all this stuff. Dance and all this.' And I came out to see it. And I saw how athletic the kids were that was doin' it," Walker said. Hey parents, coaches, gym owners... the old ways have got to GO! These girls and guys are true athletes where injuries have increased because of lack of preventative measure in athlete movement (not talking about skill). It is time for the cheer industry to get up to speed with all the other sports. Let's get these kids doing the proper corrective techniques and implement a year long program to continually increase their foundations. Keep these kids out of the injury cycle. Listen to what Brett has to say! Message us now to start teaching your staff and then educating the parents on ADU system so we can implement into your gym. #cheerleader #usasf #usasfworlds #gymnastics #tumbling
