    I remember trying out for the cheerleading team and one of the requirements was to do a split. I could only it half way but I definitely see where I went wrong after watching this video and the upper body position is definitely important. I also wish I would have known about the yoga blocks too. I’m going to go grab me some.

    • @JourneytoMobility
      @JourneytoMobility  3 года назад +1

    I've been working on splits for long long time. Despite my increased flexibility (note that I was never been able to touch floor when doing leg stretches), I'm still far from getting any split. My front split max is like your position with the cushion under. I sense some kind of "stop" on my hips, dunno how to explain it. I will just keep on flexibility but I've lost the motivation to get any split, looks impossible for my bones lol

      @JourneytoMobility  3 года назад +2

      Hi Mya!! Thanks for the question :) this depends on your body and currently level of flexibility. If you are a beginner, you could try 2x a week to start off, that would give your body plenty of time to rest in between. Then slowly work your way up to 3-4x a week. Make sure to include lighter stretches for other days as well as strengthening workouts. Having a consistent schedule where you're stretching regularly will help you become significantly more flexible in the long term
