To perform the Arabesque Ballet Training cheerleaders will need a set of Kbands Leg Resistance Bands and a wall or sturdy, stationery object cheerleaders can use to aid in balance. Once the Kbands are attached just above the knees athletes will stand next to their stationery object and raise the back leg to the rear. Both legs should remain straight as cheerleaders straighten the arms out to the side and maintain a straight back. Cheerleaders should work to a position in which a straight line, parallel to the ground, can be drawn from the foot to the head. Perform a 3-8 second hold at the top before lowering back to the ground and performing another repetition. Athletes will perform 2-3 resisted rounds of 8-10 holds on each leg before removing the resistance and performing 1 unresisted set of the exercise on each leg.
