I’m 1000% satisfied that I’ve successfully convert middle split into an asset. This took me three and a half years just to get this complex flexibility!

I've been stretching for almost 2 years now and i've managed to get the full split after getting in postion for like 20 secs or so and from my experience the key to this is just patience and consistency, there were alot of times as u said in the video that i felt i'm not improving anymore but i kept pushing and trusted the process, also everyone's body is different u know so i dont recommend rushing it at all it could take months even years so just stay at it, also i dont stretch every day i always include a rest day in between streching days to allow my muscles to recover, patience is key 👌

Respect on not getting full splits but honoring the truth, and showing the improvement. Keeps it real for the average crowd who struggle with this. Lets ouch together, bro.

at the 4:56 mark that position is the best way to get to full slips quickly put your elbows between your Kness and use your hands to grab above your ankles and push with your elbows for a least 20 to for 40 minutes twice a day for 2 weeks. but in that position make sure you're not on your tip toes but flat footed

your right elbow and arm pushing the left side your right knee

while your right hand grabs just above your right ankle and do the same on the left!

flare out your elbows and push your groin and mind it will be very painful, but it will happen for you fast! and you can do it at anytime not just in your gym but in the bathroom or at work in the bathroom!

the key is stretching your groin muscles. i achieved full splits in less than two week at your level of flexibility when i started tae kwon do

Try to train Taekwondo for 1 full week, that would be an awesome video! (Take private lessons, maybe from Trevor)

After months of practice I can ALMOST do the full split, only like 2cm left. The only issue I have is that my legs get kind of curved if my feet are facing horizontally. Great work getting this far, it's amazing to see how an amazing martial arts practitioner is still learning new things to this day, similar like how my sensei still is learning new things after 30 years of being a black belt.
Peace.

yeah in the old days i cant do splits but when joined karate my sir made me lot of improvement and i am now 3/4 i want practice more

In my experience, it took me past 2 months before I could do a full middle split. My trick was putting my arms in a plank position for 1 minute, then after a couple of months I was able to get a deeper stretch by laying on my head. The thing is, I have to do it for 1 minute, rest, do it for another minute, until I do it 3 times.

Great improvement and determination! I understand hating this process of stretching. If you do want to continue stretching for the middle split but in a slightly less miserable (and, in my opinion, even faster / safer), might I recommend a tiny adjustment?
What worked for me was a pretty similar routine to what you did, but instead of starting standing and sinking down as low as you can, start seated. Sit in the ground and open your legs into a straddle, then use your hands behind you to push your legs/hips as far open as you can. You can hold the position for thirty seconds or a minute (whenever it starts to feel comfortable) then push a little farther. I’m not an expert, but in my personal experience this made much faster progress and was less painful because of the position of your hip joints, plus the control of being able to hold completely still (instead of bouncing or leaning on your arms) and push the stretch when you’re ready rather than having gravity forcing you down.

I could do full split since 7 years of age and I still can good vid . Keep going 😀

You will be grateful once you get them 💯

Interesting. Thanks for trying this out and sharing! 🤗

[kaisonferguson]

Being that close to the splits, it made no sense to stop, full kick potential is always best

[XD_SPIDER]

i recommend you to take Massage every 15 days that will make muscles loose and it is very effective especially on ur pelvic region and its not possible for everyone to do that in 30 days just give it more time and be consistent thats all :) ~Osu

I just watched Henry vo’s challenge just before it is so funny that he got the inspiration from him! What a coincidence 😂

[Venserql]

Here's an important detail: the guy who inspired you to do this only counted the days he stretched into those 30 days. He did not count recovery days.

[shadow_crne]

I started stretching 2 years ago and I'm almost half way down by the only part that's hurting are my knees, hips and ankles when I push too hard.

Where is your dojo? Would love to come by

Congrats on your impressive improvement and constant commitment to better yourself!👍👍 I hope that this encourages you to continue the pursuit, maybe 2-3 times a week. I know you would get to the full splits in 2-3 months if you did, which would unlock even more movement potential for you.
For a challenge, maybe something that goes beyond the physical elements of martial arts. Maybe you could come up with a respect challenge or do something for your community. Just a thought…. 🙏🥋
