THE question is: Is weight training beneficial — or even necessary — for Cheersport Athletes?
I’ve been asked this question many times, and my answer is a clear:
YES, it is important — helpful, if not even necessary!
As a competitive cheerleader, you need to train for strength, functionality, durability, and long-term health — all based on the specific movement patterns required in Competitive Cheerleading and other artistic sports.
However, what truly matters are the following questions:
HOW TO TRAIN!?
HOW TO TRAIN SMART!?
HOW TO TRAIN EFFICIENT!?
HOW TO TRAIN SPECIFICALLY AS A CHEERLEADER!?
In 2020, my colleague Dr. Simon “Obelix” Gavanda and I set out to solve exactly this problem — and TOSS was born.
TOSS is the first ever sport-specific weight training program designed specifically for Cheersport Athletes. We officially launched in 2021, and today we work successfully with more than 500 athletes worldwide, with our community continuing to grow.
TOSS is a valuable resource for athletes and coaches who want to learn about sport-specific weight training, injury prevention, and long-term development in competitive cheerleading, partner stunting, acrobatics, and artistic sports.
Every TOSS training plan is specifically designed around:
- cheer-specific movement patterns
- relevant muscle groups
- appropriate intensity levels
- transfer from weight training to overall cheer performance
