But i also do most of the gymnastics too. I would have to say really work on your arm mucsles because that is also what helps you get around. Your legs do help a lot so make sure you can have the power to flip yourself over. I am able to do a back flip with ease, however i am not the smallest girl. I am one of the biggest so if i can do it i think you can do it. Make sure you work both upper and lower body. I am able to do 295 on my legs so maybe that helps. Are you really flexible?? That also might play a part into this too. *Jessica* P.S. Who do you cheer for

I can get around howvere i leand short, i know i don't throw my arms like i'm soposed to but still i think my lower body is too heavy my quads are like 27 in in diameter??
