Where's the full ups... Why is it that guys can do standing 2 to a double punch double but can't do unassisted full up libs or stretchs?!?!?!?
I dont coach a coed level 5 team, but I had a full up in high school. And I'm not that athletic....
Have you seen the guys in our industry right now? This is a TOTAL generalization and realize there are exceptions. But a lot of our Allstar guys are pretty skinny. Not saying skinny guys cant be strong - because stunting is mostly legs and technique, but most teams have guys smaller then the girls. The other thing is I think some coaches just dont know how to properly teach Coed as it hasnt been a huge thing in cheer recently. When I was in HS, I was pretty strong (wrestling, football, track, and baseball star) and I only had tossed hands extensions and tossed to hands libs that would fall all of the time! My coach was MORE than happy with that. My Coed 5 team this year has all four guys doing tossed to hands three body positions double PLUS a girl that can do it! One of the guys can do high to high tick tocks, full up immediate cupies, etc - But I know he is an abnormality!
