That’s just how you talk to each other in a stunt group, it really does help you to push through even when you feel like every muscle in your body is about to give out. I’m so proud of her though!

Bro I’ve been cheering for almost a decade. I’m 16 and I couldn’t dream of doing some of the stuff she did in this video. Granted, I don’t have to often as a backspot, but still. It was very very impressive. It was kind of inspiring, since I’m going into my first year on Varsity and it’s very nerve wracking, since, much like her, I don’t have very good tumbling skills. But, we’ve gotta try :)

[@calydlee]

It’s the fact that she’s LITERALLY learning the skills for the first time on the sidelines while the other people are performing that blows my mind. Of course Michelle isn’t going to be on par with people who have been doing this since they were in single digits, but she has a determination and energy that you KNOW those coaches have to appreciate.

Agreed. The backhandsprings alone. Like, it takes a healthy amount of mental strength to jump backwards. Most tumblers (gymnastics or cheer) build up the confidence in their bodies over time. But here she was just doing 4 in a row after learning how to do 2 *that day!* And she also performed it all in front of a crowd which is its own mental hurdle

[@andrewandrewandrewandrewandrew]

I’d like to take just a second to point out how great of a cheerleader Daniel is. I hope that he doesn’t think of himself solely as “Gabi’s stunt partner,” because he is simply remarkable. I cheered in high school and college, and if I could have been even a tenth as good of a cheerleader as Daniel, I would have never given it up.

[@louisedevilliers3837]

11:28 you can see 2 cheerleaders doing a football jump to each other 😂

[@wompwomps]

23:28 is the essence of cheer. Cheer is hard its just like gymnastics or the circus, you need to impress make it look easy and smile through it all. You may be the best person on the team but right before you get on that mat you have some type of overwhelming feeling whether it's fear anticipation or pure excitement. Even more so cause you only have one chance. Once you're done and you ace that performance or competition you feel proud you feel powerful. That nervousness or fear didnt effect you and you showed everyone how badass you are! You trained hard for it and you can finally say that the work was worth it, and that feeling of accomplishment and moment of pride that is cheer.

Those are about endurance, a passive trait you can build over time, tumbling is an actual skill.

She did an amazing job for 10 days. If she couldn't tumble or fly before, that's amazing progress. But as a former college cheerleader and co-captain of my high school cheer team, her flexibility and tumbling wasn't nearly where it needed to be for her to be even considered. She really shouldn't have made it past day 1. But her energy was really good and she's obviously very physically fit. She would make most high school teams I know of and they would feel confident in being able to train her up with more tumbling and flying skills. Unfortunately college teams generally expect you to show up fully trained with the skills they expect and need.

[@summerdais325]

She's an incredible athlete! I almost hope the cheerleaders that were cut don't see this. Some of these girls have been training since they were preschool to cheer. They've been in gymnastics and acrobatics classes, dance, cheer, competitive cheer, etc. Then here comes Michelle and nails it after only 11 days of training. Way to go!

[@nofakk0]

Tbf, Michelle is 100% more bodily aware and in better overall shape than anyone who's just done cheer or similar their whole life. That's more useful than people would think. That helps her to pick up things WAY faster, even not taking into account the things she's learned before that she can pull directly from.

[@gideonoderinde923]

Honestly this was so inspiring, iy just reminded me that whatever you put your mind to, you would surely excel in it. Great job Michelle❤

[@maddigrace101]

i have been cheering for 8 years and to see you go out there so confident is so inspiring ❤️

[@dani2g]

as a retired gymnast that also did cheer in middle/high school the amount that you learned that quick is IMPRESSIVE. It takes some people years to get over the fear of flipping backwards or twisting. I'm really impressed and I loved how hype everyone was for you.

[@pvic6959]

she trained for 10 days. imagine all the people got cut before her LOL. that must HURT

[@sweetandsoursoup]

I am honestly so impressed! Holding your own against UK is nothing to sneeze at!

[@Kekepaniash]

I think she was previously a gymnast

[@waffles05]

Never really cared for cheer. Not ever looked into it. But man I was glued to screen here and felt all the emotions. I was nervous I was happy I was surprised. Wow. Thanks Michelle for this experience

[@MichelleKhare]

Yesssssss!! I’m so happy you enjoyed!! Cheer is AWESOME 👏🏽

I love Michelle's attitude towards having setbacks. She's just like "Ok, I made this mistake, these are the steps I have to take to avoid it" and what I love is that it's contagious

[@user-0613]

10:36 this helped me so much you have no idea. now i know that coaches will love you even more if you just have that determination in your voice and that smile on your face.

[@user-zm4dd8mz9t]

Actually i really admire you and yes as your husband mentioned you are so ASTONISHING! You fight so hard to live a full life and inspire people to get out of their comfort zones and try things they always wanted or dreamed and overcome their fear. You really prove that the only limits are ourselves and as humans we are incappable of so many things if we trust and believe in us. Thank you!!!

[@rockykanaka]

Michelle I just need to say this video is awesome 👏 🤩 I don’t know anything about cheer but I was cheering for you the entire time. Great story telling and such great TV level video quality! Keep up the great work.

[@kingnb]

That saying that University of Kentucky cheerleader said was a great motto "if your afraid of failure you dont deserve success" love that motto

[@sydneypeck2488]

Personally, fear of failure is always what has driven me. In high school I was a very good 800m runner, I even had an almost perfect year where I got 1st place in almost every race I did. The thing with the 800m though is that it's painful, literally sprinting for half a mile is the most painful thing that I have ever done. When I was going into the final 200-300 meters and all that I wanted to do was slow down so that I would stop hurting, I always thought about how much I wanted to win, but also how much I was afraid to lose. Saying that I didn't deserve my success because I used my fear as my motivation is honestly really disheartening and I don't think that it's a very good message. Fear is a big part of what drives us and there is a big difference between people who are afraid to fail so they don't try and people who are afraid to fail so they work harder than everyone else to make sure that they succeed.

[@kingnb]

@@sydneypeck2488 cool

[@lilywashere27]

@@sydneypeck2488 yeah, I don't think it's a good philosophy, for me at least. Maybe I don't deserve success, but saying it outright just prevents me from trying. I want to try and try again until I succeed, not be disqualified from the start. But I can see why it works for some people

[@sadflameprincess]

i screenshotted that quote haha

[@IBM-5100]

@@lilywashere27At the end of the day, it's just a quote, a simple motto. What matters is how good you perform. If you're afraid and you still manage to be the absolute best, that's what matters.

[@maliahsue6148]

[@ShadyyNess]

As a former cheerleader who couldn’t compete well due to weak ass wrists, your spirit alone is what cheering is all about. We were always taught to smile when you mess up and keep going and no one will notice and you seriously smiled through everything that you outshined so many of the other teammates just from your spirit! You made everything look so effortless and you were having fun while doing it.

[@DanielaSantos-tv8tt]

This doesnt feel like a youtube video! It feels like a full documentary episode. Congratulations to Michelle and the team, this video is AMAZING.

Michelle is always impressive, but this one really made me amazed, she did everything so well, for it being out of her wheelhouse and not something she normally does. She learned and executed really well. This was genuinely a fantastic episode, really enjoyed watching~

[@annabelledrake2027]

Michelle, I've done competitive cheer at 2 gyms, one being a multiple time world champion gym, and I now cheer on a university sideline team. You did amazing and would 10/10 have made my university's team, in fact we would love an athlete like you! In cheer, coachability and focus are two of the most important things and you've demonstrated being amazing at both! This video was awesome!

[@Bigolewoody]
