2015 Splits Challenge

Check out the stretching lessons here along with the flexibility routines they have all kinds of tips in them 💜

Hi there! 🙂
I joined this Challenge ages ago, but had my poor little hipflexors injured at that time. Well, now they are fine again, so I finally took some “before” pictures today. 🙂 My right side is pretty good, just very turned out (I want to start oversplitting there to get really flat), left side is not too bad and the middles are horrible. So my main focus for the challenge is improving my middle splits and getting right and left flat. 🙂 (repost because those pictures were HUGE the first time OO)
-
Ok, pics are still huge, sorry about that… 🙁 Have to do those differently next time.
-
Yes, if it wasn’t clear in my last post, do check out Veenas lessons on stretching/flexibility. They are extremely helpful. Just because I don’t always do them while watching doesn’t mean I didn’t learn a great deal from them. I still refrence them when I need to. I’m just a slave to the TV 😜
-
just started putting down the yoga block and start my journey for oversplits. dont even care if I get oversplits but hopefully it will get my splits flatter and help stretch my stubborn hip flexors a little more. will post pics soon
-
yeppp ive heard stretching with blocks is a great way to flatten down the last few pesky inches if you are not flat yet =)
-
Here are my progress photos. I honestly don’t think I see a difference. I have to stretch forever just for these and I’m left shaking after…
-
Neesy, I havent seen your before pics but these look great!! 🙂 you are very close. be patient and keep stretching consistently. dont make my mistake and try to rush things.. you also have a very pretty toe point. my feet look weird, even when pointed. I think I’m very flat footed or something. haha!
-
middle split improvement…
not a lot but if you look closer you can see a lil improvement… hopefully i will be able to do that split soon too 🙂 it’s soooooo hard for me to do that one…
-
Gerfina… wow! I want your front splits!!! Looking good!!!!
-
PhoenixHunter – thank you. I need to stop being so impatient. I just feel I work so hard that I expect my progress to be like ‘wow’ lol
-
Well, it looks great so just keep doing what you’re doing. it’s working! 🙂
-
Neesy118 thank you so much 😊

Hello ladies.
First of all I’m so sorry for just vanishing. I’ve been having an awful time with my health and that of my mother’s who is in a terribly stressful situation. As a consequence I slacked off on poling and also my stretching. I will begin again tomorrow and try to have some actual progress pictures at the end of April.It was so lovely to see all your photos and comments and ladies still joining in. It’s really inspiring and ignited the fire back within me and I hope to journey alongside you all again. Keep at it everyone, and remember even if you drop off, you can always start up again!
-
Hope you’re feeling better Saeth, and looking forward to your April pics 🙂

Neesy look at you. Awesome. Your middle split 😃 good progress 😃 keep going 😃 front splits better too 😃
-
Ummmm…so…last night THIS happened:
(!!!)
-
You can see a tiny sliver of light on my right vertical split…and I look pretty uncomfortable there, which is weird because I’ve always been way closer to my right vertical split than any other. I hadn’t done any flexibility training in a couple of weeks and then last night after my strength training session and some stretching I just knew tonight was the night. I dropped down into my normal end range for middle split and then was like, hmmm, I think I can just sit down. And I did! I rolled back and forth to make sure I was actually in a middle split and I was! So then I thought, I’m gonna get my vertical split tonight too. So I tried my bad side first…and I got that too! It seriously just happened one day after lots of trying and feeling like it never would. So excited and motivated!!!
