the first time i did partner stunting my quads were so sore the next day so anything to build those up would definately be beneficial. i started as an all girl flyer though so there may be other muscle groups i already had built up. anything to work your core muscles will really help and use a balance disc to stregnthen your ankles. the best thing would be actually doing it though so look into finding a stunt partner. as for size it really depends on the college and the coach.
