Something new...
So far so good. I haven't embarrassed myself yet, as there are plenty of amazing, and amazingly flexible people here. I have much to learn, and am grateful for all the advice i have received thus far. The wall splits idea sounds like a good one, and is something that i have been actively working on the last week. I secretly hope that i can maintain this well into the new year, and reach the goal i have set a few weeks ago when i proclaimed middlesplits my goal for 2008. I have also added back

Yea. Its so upsetting because i will work so so so hard and i will get so close and then like my flexibility just kinda goes away...lol.
Other splits doing great. Although i have to say working so hard on my middle I have been neglecting my others and I am slowly losing them. Its sad.
I recently auditiouned for a modern dance group we have where I live and I made it and one the teachers also invited me to do the intermediate adult ballet class...
So even though it wont be with people my age its still better then nothing!
I have also begun doing some yoga which is very realxing and a good way to stretch.
Recently i have been working really hard on my straddle splits but I seem to be going nowhere... It hurts my hips soooo bad!
yea it is. but never forget those seem so simple stretch! you know the ones they make you do if your on a swim team. also its better to be warm than cold when stretching
uhm no incantation sorry hate to burst your bubble
start with over splits(i know it sounds odd cause its not good for you but it pays off) start with over splits SLOWLY i mean not pulling muscles slowly lower yourself down hold it for 10 seconds and then sit down and put your legs together and strech to your toes and repeat it about 5 times. and then do it normally and you will find you are a lot lower
it took me about a month to be able to do middle splits flat comfortably. so it depends on the person i supose
yea i have 1 foot over splits on middle
i normally do some splits(of course stretching for splits to). Then over splits (my new goal is 2 feet on all of them) and then some walkovers a few back bends
then i normaly bend onto my elbows from a backbend and straighten my legs and strech that way
(when im done i do an equal amount of stretch forward to so i dont damage anything)
About 3-5 hours a day. so alot xD
ahhh i see ya it feels weird not to stretch i stiffen up if i don't stretch for one day i feel all stiff and unused
