During the summer I can go to tumbling twice a week, since my mom dosen't work in the summer.
But during the school year I can only go to tumbling once a week, because both parents work, my sister has stuff going on, I have math tutoring, and I cheer for school also so around october my practices kick in and then games also.
I have my back handspring by myself on the cheesemat, but not on the floor yet. (I use a spotter) and I'm also working on my roundoff back handspring.
Tryout's for highschool are at the end of this school year (march or may) and I want to have my standing back handspring by then.
Do you think I can still get it if I only go once a week during the school year?
I have a trampoline that I could practice on too.
I'm so worried please help!

1] practice a lot this summer
2] work on building strength and agility
3] sleep at LEAST 8 hours a night
4] eat only quality food - lean proteins; whole grain bread, cereal, rice, pasta; low fat dairy, lots of fruits and veggies
5] avoid all fried, fast, and junk food - even diet junk food
6] take a good multivitamin every day
7] drink 1/2 gallon of water a day
8] ask your instructor if you should do any weight training - [ not body building ]
9] make sure you have a spotter if you are practicing at home
10] ask PE teachers if there are any gymnastics workshops at or after school
11] THINK POSITIVE!

yes. but you will need to talk to the coach of the cheerleading team first to see if she will say yes or no. i had a hard time with my after-school activities too
