How do you get a Split?

Answer 1

This can unfortunately be quite difficult. Gaining flexibility can, unlike gaining a skill, take a long time. You have to just practice as much as possible. While watching TV, doing homework, talking on the phone...sit it your splits. Push yourself each time. There is really know easy way other than practice. Instead of holding yourself up with your hands on the floor, hold both arms in the air, that will cause you to push yourself even more. Instead of doing your splits on a flat surface, put your front foot (only from your heel, not your calf) on something that is elevated (like a phonebook or something) about 3-6 inches. These things will cause it to hurt more but it will be more effective.
