Question

What do i need to do in order to do a split?

Answer 1

the younger you start the better.  

do your stretches and be consistent with them.  the splits

requires a gradual lengthening of tendons that is not normal

so do your exercises regularly but be careful not to overdo.

an injury can sideline your workouts and put you even farther

behind.

Answer 2

To do the splits takes determination and some pain. First you want to stretch then drop down as loww as you can, then drop a little further and keep doing that little by little untill you get that! just remember this doesn't take a day it takes time to be able to do the splits!

Happy Times!

Answer 3

stretch a lot, and do lunges. And than try litlle by little to do the splits, but one it starts to hurt than stop. Stretch your legs alot, to make them more flexible. Be careful when trying to do the splits, because I know alot of girls that have put out their hips and broken their legs from not stretching and practicing.

Answer 4

Stretch everyday. Try to open your legs as wide as you can at first and stay there for at least 10 minutes. You can do this when you're watching TV or reading a book. Its quite convenient, actually. Make sure you feel some pull, or else you won't get the best stretch. But if its a sharp pain, loosen up a little.
