Count me in too! This will definitely keep me motivated! 🌸
Count me in too! I've started work again on my splits recently so great timing. 🎅 Hopefully I can get them down a bit more.
Ellierox, check out my photo albums here on SV. I can do front splits on both sides and am very close to middles!

very inspirational dustbunny! thanks, its late here in Ireland but going to stretch and take pics before bed 🥂
Let's do this thing! 💪 I'm hoping to stretch as much as I can, because my body is falling apart without my workout and stretches! And also I love the splits. What better way to prove to myself I can do the impossible? ;)
I'm game!! I have a few inches between me and the floor being flat! Lets do this!!
Oh and side splits that is
Im in unflexible and can't do any split so if I can even get one for Xmas will be happy
I'd say that even if you don't get the full splits, show you're progress! Stretching is hard and we need to enjoy the little progresses we do make!
AerialGypsy is right. Post photos or videos along your journey regardless of where you're starting or where you get to. Last year I came close to splits for Xmas but did not quite get there. I posted pics anyways and continued stretching and by spring I had a consistent split on one side. The title of the challenge is a little intimidating for many and maybe even a little misleading. You don't have to get a flat split by Xmas, the goal is to try to make progress from wherever you are. Some who have splits may be working on oversplits, others may just be trying to touch their toes, and that's okay. Don't compare yourself to others and just enjoy your own personal journey. Now let's all go stretch!
Sounds good to me! Ill post my starting point tonigh :) each side
I'm in, but I will take photos in front of the menorah.
I'm in! This will give me the chance to work on my middle split! Woop!

Ellie you are so close already!

Thanks quirky! I was a block of wood when I first began, couldnt even touch my toes. Im soo far off my middles though and completely neglected them so time to start :) plus ive kind of platued and been at that point in side splits for a while. Stayin square and them last few inches is not coming easy!
Ugh I'm like soooo far away from where you are even
I'm in. I lost a lot of Flexibility over the past year & need to work on both front and side splits.

I'm in, too. I lost quite a bit of flexibility over the summer due to traveling, but I'm back on the horse. My right side is close, but my left is far off. My latest photos: https://www.studioveena.com/photos/view_album/512d88d3-c214-4eea-87d5-47c10ac37250

Oh yes definitely in! I'm gonna try for middle splits by Christmas!

Count me in, hamstring injury and all! =D I want my split already, and I'm willing to work at it!

I need some sort of motivation like this! Aiming for left leg forward splits :D
I am in! I don't think I will be all the way down but it will give me a goal to get a good picture at Christmas that I am proud off. My lack of flexibility is just embarrassing! It doesn't help that my job involves standing all day so I am really tight in my hips and legs now.
