Simple Way to Get a Full Split

This is a tutorial on how to reach your full splits. I take you through stretches to warm up and elongate your muscles enough to reach your full splits. I also discuss strategies to tailor the routine to you and your specific body requirements.
There are several tools I recommend but do not require. The main one is the Si-Stretcher available at:
www.amazon.com...
I also suggest a Si-Band which will not be available until Jan 1 2019. The Si-Band will be on amazon.com at that point.
I discuss in this tutorial several other videos that I will link there in. But they are on this same youtube channel.
I mention several things for safety, but will reiterate it here.
1. Stop Stretching if you feel pain
2. Never jerk or bounce your stretch
3. If you feel anything uncomfortable in your joints stop and adjust your stretch.

The only people I've seen with such control over all their muscles are ballet dancers. This is far beyond what I thought the body was capable of doing. BUT, it IS inspirational and motivating. I'm 78 and it's been half a century since I practiced Goju-Ryu. Even then, I was nowhere near that flexible. I'm going through a second childhood and revisiting some of those stretching activities to minimize body pains that come from the muscles, tendons and ligaments tightening up with age and disuse.

[@C4X3Music]

There is no easy way. You put in work and stretch daily. Pushing yourself a bit further each day or every few days. Persistence is the key. Some are naturally less flexible. Some are naturally more and so it varies from person to person. Just work at it steady and soon enough you will be able to do it.

[@dariusz.9119]

Stephen Wonderboy Thompson have a great advice on stretching: 3xT's which means Temperature, Tension, Time in that particular order. First you have to be warmed up then stretch and remember on holding your stretches for some time. Other than that thank you for the video Simon, it's really helpful.

[@afflulifestyle1784]

This is not to discredit Stephen Thompson but I can tell you this, the order is not actually correct & is not his advice, that advice is over 50 years old. Who am I, just a gymnast who did it for 15 plus years. We used Time, Temperature, Tension. This is where people get everything wrong, It doesn't matter if they are famous athletes because they make mistakes also. 1) People seem to think "Time" just encapsulates the time you spend stretching, yes, part of it does, however, it also refers to the time of day you stretch which is just as important. The body creates internal markers & these markers are picked up by the subconscious mind & programmed deeply in repetition "You can't outdo the subconscious mind". So for example, if you achieve the splits at night time & then you try that in the day, you will probably find that really challenging. It's not that you wouldn't be able to do it, it's just that you have created an internal subconscious marker associated with the splits for that night time progression. 2) This is the other mistake people make. Temperature doesn't just mean your body. Temperature also refers to the environment you are in, ie, the room indoors or outdoors. We use to do things like sitting on radiators for extra warmth before the room warmed up properly. The room temperature is also a subconscious marker that your body will remember. You can spend ample time warming up & do the splits in a cold room but, I assure you, any slight nip in the air will make you tense up real quickly & lead to spasms, you can't fight against a natural element that is greater than you. If the subconscious is programmed for a warm environment for your splits it will act upon that only & resist when it's not. 3) Tension can mean various things. It can mean the amount of time you hold the stretch as suggested. It can also mean when you add say weighted assistance. On the other hand, it can mean are you tense before you even stretch, some people just cannot relax at all the whole body is tense, this is even without stretching. So, tension as a whole has a few meanings. Great people to check out are Pavel Tsatsouline who has deep knowledge of stretching & training spanning over 30 years & also Thomas Kurz. They both pioneered stretching throughout the 80's & 90's. Simon has an excellent degree of flexibility & not just that, his hips & hip flexors are very well developed. When you can hold your knee up real high like Simon does & lockout, then bring it back in slowly you have reached that power level. Kicking fast & high can create an illusion of flexibility, but, you do that slowly with control, now that's a whole different level.

[@thedokkodoka4349]

I've trained all that for years and still can't do the splits, while my homie could do it after few months, basically. The hips won't allow this move to anyone. Sometimes the rotation is blocked by the hip structure. But if you move to Muay Thai it may be a healthier choice due to a dominance of lower kicks and punches. Very nice introduction into stretching, though! Great show!

[@scarlet8078]

Hi it is true some men can't do splits, but honestly I've seen even older men continue to make progress after martial arts or yoga for years. My dad took up taekwondo in his 50s & he has gotten to the split (although, it's a side split not the center split which we call straddle). As dumb as it may sound, a lot of stretching is mental bc you need to be stretching the right muscles & turning the joints the right way. To do a split requires flexibility in quads, hams, calves, hips, back & even feet. All the joints have to be moving right. Try to visualize yourself doing the splits & stretch groin separately doing clamshell, etc., & trying to rotate the hip. Good luck

It still seems almost impossible to get to that level.

[@FreeSalesTips]

It's not impossible. The muscles of normal people are completely capable of doing full splits. It is normally the brain that has been trained to impose limits preventing further muscle movement. If I could knock you unconscious (or catch you in a deep sleep), I could move your legs into the full splits position without any injury to your body because your brain's muscle memory isn't active while unconscious. The exercises taught here do a good job of training your brain to allow more movement for the purposes of splits. Being focused and relaxed will go a long way to retraining your muscle memory to move further. So keep training, keep relaxed, and good luck.

[@FreeSalesTips]

@buzz magister My theory comes from Soviet Russian knowledge of human physiology. I learned it from a book, Relax into Stretch by Pavel Tsatsouline. Conventional stretching attempts to literally elongate your tissues, which is dangerous and ineffective. Pavel teaches a different way to stretch, the way of reprogramming the central nervous system to relax its reflex in muscle movement; your central nervous system is the cultprit that is restricting flexibility. The good news is that you can retrain your nervous system and see instant results relating to increased flexibility. For me, it took one week of following Pavel's theory and method to reach the goal of relaxing into full splits. When I started, I had terrible leg flexibility just like the rest of western society. My motivation for leg flexibility is to buy a big motorcycle, the BMW F850GS. This would have been too unwieldy for me to operate with stiff, inflexible legs.
