How do you do the Splits?


Question Posted Thursday June 16 2011, 10:31 pm

Okay, so it's my 8th grade year at sylvan hills middle school in Atlanta,Ga. I was on the cheerleading team last year and I'm automatically on for 8th grade year since I was a cheerleader last year. I was good last year,but I don't know how to do a split.I can go down little on the floor and I'm almost to the ground but I can't go all the way.

I'm a guy and I used to be able to do the splits when I was in high school. It took months of daily stretching exercises, but I was finally able to get all the way down. So keep working at it. Do at least a half hour of stretching your quads a day.

you just need to do the splits every day and make sure you hold it for at least 2 minutes. just go down until its a little uncomfortable but doesnt hurt. do the left, right and center splits. practice practice practice and you should be able to do them in a week or 2. good luck!

Stretch. But don't stretch too much or you're going to hurt yourself. Take about two minutes a day, and stretch both legs until you get your splits. When you do get them, stretch before you perform them, or, again, you will hurt yourself.

You have to get flexible... Its not something you can 'just do' You have to work at it. Stretch your legs, and do all your normal exercises for cheer.
