To be completely comfortable and down all the way, about 4-6 weeks. If you practice for at least 15 minutes everyday, maybe 2-3 weeks. Remember, also breathe deeply and stretch before attempting splits, and work slowly to prevent muscle tears.
Good Luck!!!

well for me it didnt take that long cause i am naturally flexible but usually it takes about 2 weeks if you really work on them. hope i helped!
