Great stretches to do are the runners stretch and straddle. In runners stretch work everyday until you can put your elbows on the ground and see a clean line down your body. In straddle stretch to both side but do not round your back. Keep it straight so eventually you can put your chest flat you your leg. Another great stretch to do it get in a split position (right or left leg in front) and bend your front leg so that your foot is under you. Try and Bend your back leg up and grab it with your opposite hand and stretch it.

Also, when practicing your split if you are not all of the way down keep your knees completely straight so you can stretch out the muscles and tendons around your groin.

Happy Stretching!

To be able to do the splits one needs to first be completely warmed up because the splits is a static stretch and first you need to do some dynamic stretches. After a thorough warm up you should work on hamstring stretches, hip stretches, and quad stretches.

So you can get a mat or like 3 pillows and set your back leg and front leg on it, it helps you go down lower. Hold it for 3 minutes.
