Run a Cheer Gym beginner guide: Routine Creation and Management

Run a Cheer Gym is a Roblox tycoon and simulation game developed by Wayside Games where players design a custom cheer gym, recruit athletes, hire coaches, and choreograph custom cheer routines. Starting players receive three routine slots by default and can coordinate group formations, individual flyer skills, and stunt groups using an in-game timeline editor.

Core Gym Features and Management

The core loop in Run a Cheer Gym balances team training with facility expansion. When starting in a fresh gym, players build out training space, place equipment, and decorate the interior with custom colors and layouts. As the gym levels up, additional facility zones and decor options unlock.

Gym progression centers around team management:

• Scouting and Recruitment: Bring new cheerleaders into the gym to fill out team rosters.
• Coaching Staff: Hire coaches to assist in training athletes and leveling up cheer stats.
• Wardrobe and Uniforms: Equip teams with different outfits, uniform designs, and cosmetic styling unlocked through gameplay progression.

How to Create and Edit Routines

The routine editor allows players to coordinate music, mat positions, and individual moves on a visual track.

1. Starting a New Routine

Open the routines menu from the interface and select "New Routine." By default, the base game allows players to store up to 3 routines at a time. Enter a custom routine name in the editor window and choose a background song from the selection list.

2. Placing Athletes and Formations

Athletes can be positioned manually or assigned through preset team patterns:

• Preset Formations: Select the Formations tab to apply group alignments like Circle, Triangle, or V-formation.
• Custom Positioning: Open the Customize menu inside formations to drag individual cheerleaders directly to specific coordinates on the mat.

3. Assigning Dance Moves and Stunts

Choosing a global dance style, such as Royalty, causes the full squad to execute identical motions. Custom routines require assigning specific roles:

1. Open the Teams menu on the left side of the screen.
2. Select an individual athlete from the squad list (for example, a lone cheerleader on one wing).
3. Select an isolated role such as Stunt Group or Flyer Skills (such as Left skill hit).
4. Place the skill directly onto that specific cheerleader's section in the timeline editor until it highlights red to register the action.
5. Once the specialized stunt sequence finishes, the athlete automatically returns to the squad's synchronized routine track.

4. Timeline Editing and Trimming

The timeline editor allows choreography to be lengthened, shortened, or removed:

• Duration: Skills can run for custom intervals depending on how long an athlete remains elevated in a stunt.
• Trimming: Select a timeline block to split or shorten the sequence, then click the delete icon to remove unwanted segments from the routine track.

Routine Limits and Gamepass Upgrades

Free players operate under a 200-move limit within the routine timeline editor. The game offers various optional Robux upgrades that expand routine capacity, cosmetic options, and progression speed.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many routine saves do you start with in Run a Cheer Gym?

Players start with 3 routine save slots by default. Expanding this capacity requires the Extra Routines gamepass.

How many moves can you place in one routine?

Standard accounts have a limit of 200 moves inside the timeline editor. Purchasing the More Moves gamepass removes this restriction, granting unlimited move placements.

How do you make only one cheerleader do a stunt?

Open the Teams tab in the routine interface, click on the specific athlete's name, and select a maneuver from Stunt Group or Flyer Skills. Drag the skill block onto that athlete's timeline track until it turns red to assign the action exclusively to them.
