  • I created this stretching routine that will improve your leg flexibility immensely! Be consistent with this routine and push past your limits to see results! Don’t forget to warm up before you stretch (150-200 jumping jacks is a good warm up)

    Dear people who don't have all three splits: instead of attempting an oversplit, just do the split again. Doing an oversplit when you don't have a split will just damage your knees. X

    when I was a kid I was very flexible and did all kinds of sports but as I got to my teens I became very depressed and ended up quitting all the things I was doing (gymnastics being one of them) and I ended up just no confidence in myself, I wanted to die, went through years of drug abuse and living on the streets. Fastforward 10 years Im 3 years sober and just had a baby. I still lack confidence in myself, so I find it hard to start exercising because I always compare myself to how I used to be flexible blah blah blah I just get discouraged easily. Anyway this video is just what I needed. it pretty much brought me to tears and were exactly the words I needed to hear for the past few years so THANK YOU 💜

I can't even do a split at the first time, but now i can do front split, middle split, high oversplit, straight needle, leg hold, teardrop backbend. Thank you so much, Alivia! You're my angle❤️ I hope that you always be strong, positive, and confident as always, and i wish that you always be happy. You're motivations save my life. You're my inspiration! Thank you so much ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🖤🤍

    ive been doing these stretches for 10 days now and logging my progress on the notes app. thought i'd share with you all!
    day 1: i felt really motivated. some of the stretches i couldnt do but i kept on going and did the ones i could to the best of my ability
    day 2: sore from yesterday. i could actually do all of the stretches today. i lost a little bit of motivation because i realized just how much further i need to get before i can even do my right splits. the stretches were harder today but at least i completed them
    day 3: did this late at night and it felt great! i saw so much progress and was super motivated
    day 4: for some reason the stretches were kinda difficult today. i wasnt very motivated and i felt like i even lost progress
    day 5: omg i felt so good today and i can really see progress especially in my right split. super motivated
    day 6: sharp stabbing pain when i do stretches on the right. im gonna take a rest day tomorrow and once a week from now on!
    day 7: rest day
    day 8: the sharp stabbing pain in my right leg is still there, so i go as far down in the stretches as i normally would
    day 9: stabbing pain is still there! i think it might be sort of starting to go away but im not sure. idk if i should take another rest day or keep stretching and just see if it goes away because im feeling super unmotivated and like ill never get my splits :(
    day 10: the stretches actually felt really good today! the only thing was im STILL feeling that sharp pain in my right leg especially when i do my straddle stretches. it doesnt really affect any of the other stretches so thats good but im a little bit worried. ive noticed a lot of progress in that i can go a lot further in all of the stretches involving leaning or bending over. not much progress with my splits though.
    day 11: the sharp pain is pretty much gone! all of the stretches felt amazing today and i saw a lot of progress especially in my right split and middle split. my left side was a bit tight but its ok. im feeling motivated
    day 12: ok so i didnt really do the whole stretch routine today since when i got to it it was super late at night and was super tired. i only did up until the straddle but it was still nice to stretch a little.
    day 13: everything was so tight today and the stretches were really hard. im assuming this is because i took an almost complete rest day yesterday. since i basically took a rest day yesterday i will not be taking one tomorrow
    day 14: two weeks done and i really am not seeing much progress. the stretches were easier than yesterday but still pretty hard. im not feeling very motivated because i dont think im getting anywhere but im going to try to keep going
    day 15: rest day (i was super tired)
    day 16: omg. yall!! i can see soo much progress in my right split!!!! im about 2 inches above the ground which is really really good considering where i started!!! i have progress pics and you can really see how far ive come. i think that if i really push myself, i can get my right split this week :) super pumped! also seeing a lot of progress in my middle splits, and we're def getting there with the left

    Just wanted to share my experience:) i tried this routine about a year ago, i did it almost everyday and at first it was reaaaaally painful, but then as i kept going, i started noticing improvement, slowly, but i was getting there. Then i finally got to do my middle splits and some other forms. (Note: i was kinda flexible from the very beginning but i improved a lot and i also did some of the middle split routines) So, I can say that this video is really helpful and if youre thinking of trying it, start today!

    i did this everyday for 3 months and here is my progress in a nutshell: i couldn’t touch the floor. my legs weren’t straight. it hurt a lot. i couldn’t breathe while doing the stretches. my body was sore. my legs felt pain the following days after doing it and it lasted for weeks. but even with the pain and struggle i still did it every day (with rest days bc those days are very important as well). and now i can do both right and left splits, i can lay on my back, grab my left and right foot, and pull it back all the way, and i’m so close to getting my middle splits.. my point is i can do every stretch in this video almost perfectly. i want whoever reading this to use my progress as their motivation to keep chasing after their goal. if you want to be flexible, why haven’t you started? it’s never too late. make that desire become a reality, i believe in you

I lost all my flexibility. Some months ago I was' nt even able to do splits. One of my cousin sister she was showing her flexibility in family gatherings after that I realised how much flexibility I have lost. I tried to regain it I started watching alivia d Andrea, Anna mcnulty, soffi dossi, elliana walmsley and manymore. I streched every day and then after some weeks I was able to do splits. I was so happy but it was not easy to become a flexible person i am not insanely flexible but I am trying to become more flexible and now I feel like I am amazing I achieved so much in 3 months it was not easy specially my back.

    For anyone who isn’t a dancer, these are exercises that’s we do often to keep our flexibility. These are exercises that are safe to do and encouraged even if you aren’t a dancer yourself, as you body benefits regardless. Try not to over-stretch, because that can cause pulled muscles, and in extreme cases, torn muscles and ligaments. Listen to your body and stretch responsibly!😊

      Sorry was camping! I couldn’t respond sooner! But yes, I stretch everyday, so this works for me. But if ur in LOTS of pain, tone it down. But yes :) I do this stretch’s so as long as ur dog or little sibling doesn't push u down (I was out for weeks lol thx to my puppy)u should be good! Just be careful if ur not a trained dancer. I have been dancing since two and a half and I’m eleven. Almost 9 years. But if ur not a dancer start out every other day. Or not ur choice! Sorry for the rant boba angels :)

Beginning is the first step of success right?

    Why sit for minutes in static, if there is no sense from it?
    First of all, we need to understand that we are pulling MUSCLES. Yes, the ligamentous apparatus, especially in childhood, is amenable to changes, but then it takes years of muscle work to ensure that the joint remains stable.
    Further, if we already understand that we are pulling a muscle, we need to realize that only a nerve impulse sets the muscle in motion and it does not matter if it is a contraction or stretching..
    And hence the logical conclusion follows➡️
    Why sit for minutes in static, if there is no sense from it?
    It is much more pleasant to move and feel control over the muscles.🙃

    Day 1 - it was hard but I really liked pushing my self ( for future days when I feel like giving up remember your doing this for a reason don’t give up you can do this!)
    Day 2 - was a little sore but did fine
    Day 3 - I do two stretching videos a day and decided to skip this one because I was feeling sick
    Day 4 - had to modify some stretches and skipped the last one because I already did it with another video ( also my body was aching so that’s another reason )
    Day 5 - I did a shorter stretch video because I was tired
    Day 6 - the stretches are easier than the previous days and I can feel me getting closer to my splits 🙂

    day 1 - ✅ some of the stretches were really hard, I could barely reach my feet most of the time
    day 2 - ✅ I ended up only doing the standing stretches, oops. But even so, I could already go a little further than yesterday and reached a little more!
    day 3 - ✅❓ alright! I missed 2 months but i’m back! My hamstrings were sooo tight but the stretches definitely helped to loosen them up a bit again. (UPDATE - it’s still day 3, I actually ended up doing this exercise twice today because I watched a bunch of figure skaters and their amazing flexibility inspired me a lot haha. Doing the stretches in the evening felt great!)
    day 4 - ✅ my legs… so sore… but I still did it
    day 5 - ❌ I took a break to let my hamstrings rest lol
    day 6 - ✅ I already feel more flexible, and I can reach more on all the exercises!
    day 7 - ❌ I didn’t do this today. Instead I practiced with a different video, so I still ended up stretching!
    day 8 - ✅
    Ok i’m still doing this basically every day, and if i’m not doing this i’m doing a different stretching routine, but it’s too much work updating this everyday lol. Maybe i’ll update it once a week, or i’ll do it when I start to see really noticeable improvement. Just know, I am still doing it!

    I'm a gymnast who had lymes disease(ticks) and couldn't walk for 8 months due to swollen knees, then had a growth spirt when my knee inflammation wasn't fully gone and I'm healed enough to start stretching. I can't do certain stretches that I normally can due to th injury on my knees, which is only over splits and lunges while pulling leg back.
    Day 1: Feels like normal stretching with bad form. Leg kicks sucked, couldn't get it past like 70 degrees if I had my hips squared.(being a gymnast I stretched a lot so I can deal with stretching pain without changing my face)
    Day 2: Im a bit sore from yesterday so I couldn't get as far but it didn't hurt extra. Shaking after splits.
    Day 3: I felt pretty strong doing it and got farther down on leg stretches. Still suck at pikes and splits. Im only slightly sore just after, so im going to do the bedtime yoga meditation video she made.
    Day 4: Im pretty ok with it I got farther and my splits didn't hurt much, but if i went just slightly farther it hurt too much so yeah, my legs dont feel wobbly or very sore, and my kicks were a little bit higher on my left leg. (im left legged right handed)
    Day 5: I had physical therapy today so I was more sore when I started. I got a lot farther in y splits today but I couldn't touch the floor. I could do the butterfly stretch extremely far down unlike my usual though.
    Day 6: I got a lot farther on touch your toes stretches and can almost put my nose to my leg. Splits I feel stronger after instead of wobbly. Thread the needle hurt more than usual today.
    Day 7: I didn't do all the stretches as I did similar things at physical therapy today. It hurt a lot more because my physical therapist just added like 5 more strengtheners/stretchers and ow. I'm gonna be sore tomorrow...
    Day 8: Sry I had wayyy too much schoolwork, didn't have time.
    Day 9: I didn't do it specifically, but I went out bike riding and running around, which I haven't done in over a year, and a would randomly go into a stretch so im counting that.
    Day 10: Owwwwwww. It hurts too much from yesterday I can barely walk down the stairssss.
    Day 11: Im still too sore...
    Day 12: I was gone all day helping my friend's mom clean up from her moving stuff. Ill probably do it tomorrow..?
    Day 13: It hurttt. Im still sore from day 9 and im annoyed of how i overdid it. I managed to do the stretches and got about how far I did on day 7 or so so im not upset.
    Day 14: I didn't do the laying down stretches but im supposed to be asleep rn and i just made quite a bit of noise so gn! It didn't hurt too much my splits felt weird. Strong but not far down if that makes sense.
    Day 15: IM SORRY I HAD 4 PROJECTS, PLAY PRACTICE, PHYSICAL THERAPY, AND THE ORTHODONIST(My school tells us about projects the same day they are due but they will let us go like 2 days overdue before they get a little upset)
    Day 16: I finished my projects today, but im gonna do the stretches rlly quite since im supposed to be in bed. First off, I'm so freaking sore from physical therapy yesterday (we did some ab things too so it hurts to cough/laugh) I CAN GRAB MY ANKLES(for the straddle stretch arm over head and the first stretch) Splits hurt quite a bit and so did the hamstring stretch. The laying down stretched barely hurt.

    Okay, so I have been doing this for about 4 days now. Before I was kind off flexible I could like nearly do the middle splits, some days I could and some nearly. I could not really do the left side splits, I would be in a lot of pain, I would be better in the right side, like nearly. And after these four days, I can now do the middle split with less pain, same as for the right side split, not the left split yet, but nearly. So I am very happy with my results so far. But keep in mind everybody is different so maybe your results will not come as fast or even faster, and that’s ok, please have patients and be safe, because I am naturally flexible and naturally adjust fast to flexibility, so please take is as slow as your body says. I might update so yeah, good luck 💗

    Guys, I honestly have to say that this is the most helpful leg flexibility I’ve come across. I used to do gymnastics and lost my bad leg split and my middle after I quit. Now I’ve nearly gotten my right split and bad leg and I’ve got my oversplit back for my left split. It might not work out for everyone because we are all different but seriously, give this a go. It really helps a lot🙂

    This works really well to get the splits. I've being doing this everyday since January to get the splits. I have my left splits and a little left over split. I'm so close to a right split. The middle split is getting there. DON'T GIVE UP.(I know have my right splits).(I posted this comment a month ago and now I really close to my middle split). Update: still trying to get my middle split I'm very close.( June 17)

      Good joob! I've been doing this every day for a week now. I've never been really flexible, but when I was younger I managed to do my right splits once! This year, I really wanted to get more flexible again and I'm already getting better💕
