The Scientific Way To Get Your Splits

Hi! My shirt is merch that is coming VERY SOON stay tuned for that :) Stay Flexy!

All my links:

Research:

The Relation Between Stretching Typology and Stretching Duration: The Effects on Range of Motion (International Journal of Sports Medicine)

The Effect of Time and Frequency of Static Stretching on Flexibility of the Hamstring Muscles (Physical Therapy & Rehabilitation Journal)

I've seen 15/20+ minute videos of other people teaching how to do the splits and nothing ever worked when I tried those. I've been doing your method of 3 30 second sets (however i'm doing it almost every day) and one month later, i'm able to do my left leg split, i'm halfway from doing my middle split, and my right leg split is also halfway there too!! Thank you soooo much for this!!

I love how your house is so real. Is not Insta-fake. Just normal. Thanks for injecting reality and humanity into social media.

i love how straightforward you are. Ive seen so many videos where they just waste your time and make you do like 20 different stretches

I don't know if you'd agree with this, but I had a wrestling coach who taught us that when we stretch for flexibility, we should stretch to the point of slight discomfort, but never pain.
Not 100% sure, but I always used that advice for my stretching.

[Kert]

You're right, it's probably because I like you 👀

I don't even need to get my splits, but I clicked on the video anyway, because I'm a coach and am always curious what advice other people give. You got a subscriber, because I think this is one of the best how to get your splits videos I've seen. Nice to see someone who actually does their research. As a side note: I always wear mismatching socks too, and my students like to tease me about it. 😊

I do a 20-30 minute stretching routine 6 days a week. This video can definitely get you to your splits, but a longer stretching routine is very relaxing and feels great.

1:15 warmup starts, 5:07 middle splits, 6:06 front splits, restart 4:37

Hahah you, my dude, are lovely. Your videos are so chill, they make me feel really comfortable and not disappointed about not being the most flexible! 😁 Keep it up! Thank you! 😊

[GlowUpWithT]

This makes so. Much sense just to practice the split till you get lower, I hate doing the other stretching video where you do everything but the splits

[barbie]

My hip flexors and hamstrings are super tight from years of football injures so more of this split stretch series in this slightly longer form are greatly appreciated

I have a request! I am a 39 year old mother of two teens and we are terribly out of shape. Two of us are lean but are wimpy and two (including husband) are overweight. I wanted to start with flexibility to get warmed up and incrementally add more to our routines. It would be super cool if you did like a 30 day series or at minimum, add something like a daily routine set of videos to a playlist on your channel. I found you on FB, and hoped I wouldn’t have to make my own by going through over 100 videos to figure out what I needed first. Thanks! Your content is fantastic

[Kaboomnz]

The thing I look for in instructors is authenticity, technical knowledge, and ability. You have all of that plus a good vibe, liked and subbed

[RoseOnTheLine]

Tbh I didn't even thought about wanted to do splits, but I saw a video of you online so I clicked on it (without knowing the title XD). I ended up doing the exercises with you lol
I always enjoy your vids :)

[akosuakoranteng]

Been trying to get my splits for years! This is the year I get it! Thanks for the video! 🤸🏾‍♀️

[jomama]

Your videos are straightforward, so helpful and relatable! Your little side convos during the actual stretch got me thru the discomfort and even made me chuckle a little 😅
thank you sooo much!

[sabrinaleon]

i love these full length stretch videos where i can follow along! i have had trouble with my hips since i was 12 (ex-dancer) so it’s nice to be easing back into my splits in a gentle way

[queenett]

Cheers. Been watching your shorts for ages. Thanks for this video. Middle splits is exactly what I want to achieve. 2 years seems like a realistic time frame for any goal, lmao. Wish me luck.

[trackaccountabilitymirror]

I love your video bc you can see your personality shine through. You didn't need fancy equipment or a yoga mat, you did it comfortably and this is one of the best help splits video I've seen.

[plantaofinanceiro]

You sir is amazing. I recently started practicing Taekwondo and was feeling really bummed out by the fact I can't do the side kicks higher than my opponent's knee level because I have almost no flexibility. Your great sense of humor inspired me to improve. I am going to get and stay flexy!
