Cheer leading is just dancing and yelling cheers for a team. Definitely gymnastics is difficult because of all the exercises and stunts you have to do! To become a very talented gymnast, it takes lots of practice and time!
Ok. I believe that both are sports , and both are very hard and require large amounts of strenght and ability. I truly believe cheer is a harder sport, and I will explain why. First of all, cheer is not just dance and yelling team names. Nowadays cheerleading is tumbling, acrobatics, stunting, dance, and a whole lot of other stuff. I believe cheer is harder on the body and also you can get injured a lot easier, because there is so much happening at once. And trust me, if you went to a legit all-star cheer practice, for example california bullets smoed, you would be exhausted and on your knees. I also think that gymnastics is an amazing sport that is hard, but I think that in cheer, you need explosive strength, endurance, and a whole lot more. If you don't believe me, I think you should watch the link below. If you still think gymnastics is a harder sport, I don't really mind.

Both of the sports are very difficult and I think each athlete that participates in either are extremely talented. But I do think cheerleading is harder. I was gymnast for 6 years, I competed, and I was usually in the top three; but I got bored and decided I wanted to be a cheerleader. In gymnastics everything is easier because only you are doing it. But in cheerleading you rely on your team, especially your stunt group. You can die in gymnastics; but everytime I base a basket toss if I don't catch my flyer its a 99% chance that she would die. And it can also be tough remembering pages of cheers and dances. Its not that difficult to remember a floor or beam routine. But I think it takes bravery, athleticism, and a very smart person to do either sport. And in the end after experiencing both worlds I have to go with cheerleading.
Ok take it from a cheerleader im not gonna bash gymnast because i dont really know what they do but kudos to them because their great but cheer i a very difficult sport . And far to many people underestimate it. Ive had some big boys come in and so what we do or a day leaving huffing and puffing . We tumble stunt jump yell etc. its really worth it and its really awesome to know that your a part of it and its something youll never forget . Cheerleading is a sport and a very great too. Oh and we get to compete nationally if your teams good enough
I think triathlon.
