A PLUS size cheerleader has opened up about the hurtful preconceptions that she wouldn’t be able to do the sport because of her size.
Tiffany Price revealed that she’s had it with people saying that fitness is anything to do with body type – and she’s walking proof that it doesn’t mean you have to be small to be active.
The body confident social media star shared a video on her TikTok account, which is @tiffanypric.e, hitting back at her critics.
“When people say plus size cheerleaders aren’t a thing,” the text on the video reads, as it cuts to footage of Tiffany and her fellow cheerleaders performing impressive lift after lift.
She then continues defiantly: “I know they aren’t saying my name, or have evidence that this is the truth.
The video concludes as Tiffany writes: “Repeat after me: fitness has no body type.”
