we do the splits on the wall and hold it for 2 minutes !. ive been doing that at home !. i cant do it the whole way , but i go as far as i possibly can !. :) ive been making sure my backs straight !. i do it at least 2 - 3 times a day !. and basic holding the feet thing !. etc !. what do you think !? will this help me !? Www@QuestionHome@Com Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: okay, so this is what my sister told all her girls and they all have their splits: if you hold you split for 1 minute every day for a week, your split will drop 1 inch closer to the ground!. so!.!.!.!.!.you would be holding it for 4-6 minutes, if you did that every day for a week your split would be 4-6 inches closer to the ground!. good luck and let us know when you get it!Www@QuestionHome@Com I am probably one of the most UNflexible people!. I'm built tall and lanky, and my hips are real tight!. I just pushed myself as far as I could go every day at dance, stretched like crazy, held my splits as far as I could, and I got them! Just practice! I mean I'm sure that doing that would help, but to me 2 min is a bit extreme! You know what helps me!? I hold onto the barre at Dance and slide into my splits!. It helps put less pressure I guess on your legs and you don't have to balance as much!. Then I can slide into them at center with ease! Just keep practicing!Www@QuestionHome@Com yes that would definitely help, you would soon see an increase in your flexibility!. another good form of stretching is a pnf stretch, this when your get somebody to push your leg so that it is stretching while kicked!. they do this for 30 secs and release then push it a bit further, repeat 4 times increasing the stretch each time, repeat for each leg!. this will defiantly work good look!!!!Www@QuestionHome@Com It will help, but another thing that will help is when you're watching tv just sitting on the floor in a split position for as long as you can hold it!. If you're concentrated on something else it makes holding it easier!.Www@QuestionHome@Com Sounds like it should work - -stretching helps with flexibility, but there's also basic genetics involved!. If you're family isn't flexible, it may be tough for you!. I'd really need you to post a pic, for me to give you a better answer!.Www@QuestionHome@Com It helps but that's a lot of work!. Try doing oversplits or something!. It's the same stretch, less work!. Use a folded mat, or anything at that level!.Www@QuestionHome@Com Yes it will toattaly help, but you might want to extend your time at home I hold splits for five minutes!.Www@QuestionHome@Com yes it will helpWww@QuestionHome@Com |
