Cheerleaders keep it hot when the temperature drops

Rah, rah, brrrr!

Cheerleaders set to hit the field at the Super Bowl on Sunday have special moves to keep them looking good even in the cold — including adjusting stunts to avoid pulling muscles, stocking up on toe warmers and crafty layering techniques.

“We wear layers as long as they’re not visible [under the uniform]. You have to try it out and make sure it works with the uniform,” said Seahawks cheerleader Alicia Quaco, 25.

She wears ski socks and tights and makes sure to constantly stay moving — so the blood keeps flowing, said Quaco, who will perform in temperatures that could dip to the low 30s late in the game.

“We’re dancing around the whole time so we stay warm,” she said.

Green Bay Packers cheerleader Leah Buege, 19 — a chilly cheering pro who sometimes performs in below-zero temperatures — says “we stretch out. Muscles get stiff and it’s not as easy to throw someone up in the air, so we do more jumping and dancing. You have to constantly keep moving.”
