There are several reasons. Cheerleaders watch their diets and eat healthy foods. Good nutrition is a key! Cheerleaders work out ALL the time. They practice really hard, run, lift weights, do yoga, tumbling, anything physical.
Its also the KIND of workout routine they do. There's static work and explosive work. The static work is like when they hold their teammates above in the air. Sure they may have help from two others, but they are doing this very often during the game! A cheerleader may weigh 115 lbs whereas a guy weighs 200 lbs. So 3 girls holding a 120 lb girl in the air for 10 seconds is like 1 guy holding a 70lb weight above his head for ten seconds. This kind of static work involves your whole body at once...and you have to breathe during all this, and when you are holding a 70 lb weight above your head think about how strong your back and abs must be to breathe properly? The explosive work happens all the time, jumps, arm punches, dancing. So static and explosive work is why they are strong and fit.
Cheerleaders are the best conditioned female athletes, excepting for gymnasts.
