Okay so what you do is every time you was watch T.V. you would stretch you no start out light until you are a little bit warm and then go harder. Also every day you sit in my splits for 5 minutes even if it is really far away from the ground, on both sides. Also you can do this one wall stretch were you lay on the floor and put your legs up on the wall and do like a strattle while still laying on your back, then have someone push your legs down a little farther after you have been like that for a few minutes. Stay there for like 5 minutes. You can also do your splits with like one foot up on something like a mat that is like 2 in tall because than there will be no ground under and you will stretch it more.

Good Luck and i hope you get them soon.

Repeat these steps daily, or at least every other day. Read this 3 week stretching routine if you want the splits down fast: http://drillobsession.com/2006/09/03/fle...
Make sure you are warmed up. Without this you could harm yourself. This can be done by doing a seated pike, or a standing one.
Reach forward,holding on to your toes. Hold for a slow count of 20 seconds minimum. It may hurt, but just bear through the pain as it will drastically increase your hamstring flexibility. You will find that after repeating this stretch several times, your are able to easily touch your nose to your knees whilst in a seated or standing pike.
Continue stretching by standing with your feet together. Reach down and try to touch your toes. Do not bend your knees at all (you may not be able to touch your toes... it’s alright). Bring your body down to your leg.
Rounding your back so that your hands are closer does not help your stretch, so try to keep a straight back and bring your abdomen closer to your feet.
Sit on the ground with your legs straight out in front of you. Reach over your legs towards your toes. Once again it is important to keep a straight back and get your chest and not your arms closer to your legs.
Hold your right foot and bring it up to your mouth and hold it there for 30 seconds. Then do the same with the left. Do not actually touch it to your mouth.
Repeat the last step, except this time bend one leg behind you in order to stretch the other. Do this with both legs.
Stretch your Sartorius muscle. This is the muscle, in a split, that you feel in your back leg between your leg and body. One tip on how to stretch it, is to sit in the buterfly position. Your feet should be together, and toes can be pointed. Then, slowly, try to push your knees down to the floor. She should feel the burn right near your 'buttocks'. Hold it for a count of a slow minimum of thirty seconds.
To do this you have to kneel down, put your hands on the ground, and then straighten out your back leg. You may put your knee on the ground but remember that if you do this then you have to try to bring your crotch closer to the ground. This stretch will need to be held a lot longer than most (1-2 minutes on each side)
Standing with your legs in an "A" position, reach your arm over your head towards the opposite leg.
Sit in a straddle on the ground and reach out in front of you, trying to get your chest and stomach as close as you can to the floor.
bring one arm over your head and towards your leg,while sitting in a straddle, keeping your body sideways to your leg. Do this on both sides.
Sit in butterfly position (like Indian style but with your feet together). Press down your knees to the ground with your elbows or your hands. Press your abdomen closer to your feet.
Once you can do the splits in every direction, you can stretch farther past the split line. This is important for advanced dancers, gymnasts, and cheerleaders, but should only be worked on if you can already do the splits well:
Use an 8-inch mat. Put your front heel on the edge of the mat. Stretch through the splits and hold for 100 counts. It also helps to have someone nice press down on your shoulders as you do this, so you can stretch even farther.
Kneel with your back knee bent up against a wall or mat and your front foot on the floor, knee bent. Stretch through the splits and press down then release, down, release, for 20 counts.
Make sure you don't try to bounce to reach your toes. That can BE DANGEROUS.

A 15-year-old boy has been convicted of murdering Sophie Lancaster because she was dressed as a Goth.

The 20-year-old was kicked to death in a park by Brendan Harris as she begged him and four other youths to stop beating her boyfriend, art student Robert Maltby.

Preston Crown Court heard the assault was totally unprovoked and the two victims from Bacup, Lancashire, were singled out because they looked different to their attackers.

Miss Lancaster, a gap year student, died from serious head injuries two weeks after the attack in Stubbylee Park, Bacup, in the early hours of August 11 last year, while Mr Maltby, also a Goth, survived.

A jury of nine men and three women found Harris guilty of murder within hours of retiring.

After the verdict trial judge Anthony Russell QC lifted an order banning identification of Harris and Ryan Herbert, 16, who had pleaded guilty to Miss Lancaster's murder.

Harris had denied the murder charge but pleaded guilty to causing grievous bodily harm to Mr Maltby after drinking two litres of cider, a bottle of Stella Artois lager and "quite a lot of" peach schnapps.

Herbert admitted murdering Miss Lancaster before he was also due to go on trial. He also pleaded guilty to assaulting her boyfriend.

Outside court, Sophie's mother, Sylvia, 52, said: "I stand outside this house of justice today, not as Sophie's mother, but as her voice. Her voice that was cruelly silenced in a single mindless act.

"Sophie was a thoughtful, sensitive individual and she would not have wanted her death to have been in vain.

"I hope therefore that, as a society, we can use what has happened to reflect on where we are going and what changes we need to make to prevent others suffering in this way.

"Finally, I must thank my family, friends, the police and the thousands of strangers from around the world whose support has been such a comfort to me from the start of this ordeal."

Ms Lancaster's boyfriend said he has lost his "entire world" and wishes the gang that kicked her to death had killed him instead.

In a moving interview, he said the couple had planned to get married and have children and that it was "just not fair" that everything they had worked for had been taken away from them.

He said: "She was my entire world. I'm not ashamed to say that.

"Everything I was doing outside being around Sophie was really just to make it so we could have a decent life together, and just when we have tried that hard, we have put in so much effort, and then some child comes along and decides to ruin it all for you, it is just not fair."

Mr Maltby said he had first met Sophie through a friend of a friend and they had clicked when they realised they shared a love of an obscure German band.

The pair also dressed similarly, he said, adding: "From speaking to her it just seemed like I was speaking to a smaller version of myself.

"She was very, very warm. Just wanted to make friends with everyone really, and that might have had something to do with why we started going out and sadly might have had something to do with what happened the night we were attacked."
