[mileyrayjenn45]

@IBMaccMartelli i know right!!!

[MegaVeronica101]

@IBMaccMartelli Um, to you and the 33 people who liked this comment, male gymnastics teachers have a passion for teaching gymnastics, just as male science teachers have a passion for teaching science, try to think of it just like a male science or math or english teacher, he's a teacher, he just teaches gymnastics. He never once touches these girls besides there backs and he helps kick there legs, so they won't fall and crack there neck.

[ashleydovan]

Idk but I think this is funny

[ItsCorrineSoScream]

Did the female say flexibelty xD

[metropinky2015]

actually.. it shows you the streches that u do to achieve the spilts :)...

[myhomecrib]

carlos is doing everything while miss talk a lot talks

[mixfanful]

i actaully hve a girl coach nd da man one da man one is better nd funni lol wish i culd go bck but practice wat i got already i might go bck

[213shazzy]

I need to take a damn gymnastics class. Do you think 19 years old is to old to start gymnastics?

[supercatgirl7]

@213shazzy

no lolz

[emilee571]

@213shazzy no way!!!

[Guelsheng]

Get the subtitles out of the picture!

[DoNotLaughAtMe]

when your younger, you body is more flexible, as you grow older your bones start joining together. therefore you lose flexibility as you get older. That why it was probably easy for them and they probably haded some training too.

I don't really find that guy a perv, more of a helper. Please me mature about it.. I think he just wants to help kids gymnastics and whats wrong with that ?

Unless if he keep on touching for no reasons then that might change everything.

[eirho11]

ok 1st WTF is there a guy teaching two girls gymnastic all he is doing is touching them up -.- stupid gym 2nd the commentator should be a younger and more up 2 date women not a old person

[coolsteven2]

OMG wtf is wrong with the girl in teh pink? her back leg is like swinging to the left O_o.

[diamondprincess59]

dang 4 beginners that looked easy 4 them they juss went straight donw lik it aint nun thin

[SuperBlogTV]

i giv up its way too hard for mei can do it with the right leg but the left leg keeps bending and it hurts

[singerdancer07]

@IBMaccMartelli you're paranoid for thinking that. male gymnastics coaches are not pervs.

[absofsteal89]

Oh god, this video is terrible. The girl on the right is clearly unsquare and the girl on the left's front knee is rolled in, but the "coach" does nothing. In the second lunge, the "coach" moves both of the girls legs out, yet both of their feet are left completely sickled.

[singerchic1997]

Wow this helped me so much...

[pitxhi00abi]

GOD THAT HURTS! >.<

[andresico2]

@IBMaccMartelli he looks like a gymnast to me...

[singerdancer07]

for those of you who think that it's wierd to have men and female coaches. get over it. you see Men and women teaching Gymnastics all the time. yes they teach both boys and girls but during times where there at stations the boys are with the male coach and the girls are with the females so they aren't always in the same place all the time.

[Cupcakesweet244]

@singerdancer07 Yeah. I have one man coach and one girl coach, and the man one is actually better than the girl one!

[christinabruce97]

@singerdancer07 its just like school there is male and female people really need to get over it it is pissin me off its not perverted

[glennroy18]

WOW. but borinn

[omgily221]

i start gymnastics for summer on July 5th and im excited but im 12 and i cant even do a split and im not flexible :(

[singerdancer07]

@omgily221 you'll get there,don't rush or force yourself to do the splits or anything  or you'll get hurt. it takes time and practice.

[LucyQueenOfRandom]

why i sit always the same two girls?

[MissEdwardCullen1132]

@LucyQueenOfRandom they filmed all of these on the same day with the same chics

[honk4peace89]

@IBMaccMartelli there is nothing wrong with males teaching female gymnastics. would you rather them not be spotted or be spotted by a man? just saying... not all men are creepers.

[IBMaccMartelli]

@honk4peace89 i would rather them be spotted by a female

[advjones]

horrible tutorial video.

[13madpar]

aw they are adorable haha the one in blue is trying to look better by throwing her arms up in the air

[dancingstar1129]

one was doing a right and one was doing the left

[itsallaboutme25954]

fuckin pervs get a live old man

[honk4peace89]

@itsallaboutme25954 wow such ignorance... just because he is spotting a girl gymnastic doesnt make him a perv. I work as a gymnastic instructor for pre-k and the male instructor at my job is the best we have and he is in no way a creep. have some respect.

[xxraffertyxx]

OMG ther double jointed u cant get that flat in splitz i f ur not my friend is double jointed and she gets completely flat but i can do splits and get flat but if u can do it that gud on both legs ur definitley double jointed

[LibertineDeSade]

@xxraffertyxx There's no such thing as "double jointed", there is however a hypermobility condition. But that has nothing to do with splits which come from conditioning the muscle, not the bone. Hypermobility can end up being a debilitating condition and cause many problems. Doing front splits come from flexibility. It takes time to get that flexible, some people more than others. I'm sure that if you keep trying you can be just as good as your friend.

[xxraffertyxx]

@LibertineDeSade i think u will find that ther is such thing as double jointed! my friend went to see a doctor because one day she over stretched he sed not to worry cos most ppl like her who are double jointed over stretch alot! so a doctor sed ther is such thing as being double jointed!

[LibertineDeSade]

@xxraffertyxx Well all my life I was told I was double jointed by random people. One day, when I was a kid, I was getting a check up and I asked my doctor about it. She said, there is no such thing as double jointed and that some people are just naturally more flexible than others. And reading up on it (I'm working on contortion currently) has shown me no proof that there's a such thing. At least not in the sense that people talk about. So, IDK.

[ollobrains1]

youtube keeps recommending this to me why

[Arlanda11]

I AM 11 YEARS OLD AND I DON'T KNOW HOW TO DO A SPLIT when i do it my back leg bends and it cause me why i can't do a split i am like 6 or 7 inches off the ground

[stickgurl667]

@Arlanda11 wow u r like my twin :o lol

[xxraffertyxx]

@Arlanda11 probably the only reason u cant do it is cos u didnt stretch properly... if u do all the proper stretches u will c the difference in ur splitzz!

[98melz]

i do rite splits eassssssssy  bothhh but prefer rite

[grizzgrizzbear91]

i learned in gym when we were playing dodge ball it was about hit me and i fell in the splits O.o

[GrimBallerina]

Haha that's awesome lol.

[191haily]

its never too late to start. l have only just started this sportnand i am 12 and three quaters. :L i am already learning how to tumble. and i know how to tumble

[Lalala417]

were u able to do the splits before? cuz i was never able to do so.

[Robertking1996]

Left splits usually look prettier than rights splits thats what I've noticed.But personally I do a left split all the way.Also I noticed boys 90% do left and girls 99% do right.

[tristanbre96]

Lol ima guy and I can do the splitz. Ive been doing them since I was 10 xD

[Robertking1996]

I tried doing splits when i was 12 and that was that was my first time ever trying in my life,and I almost did them flat against the gound.But then one day I forced it down by not controlling how fast I went to the ground,and teared by groin.Was in crutches 3 days,and did it after and could do it all the way.But I did then on right.but after did them on left.

[Cheerwizsinger]

im a cheerleader not a gymnast and we dont do that same stretching they do before therre splits.

[ArianaDotMartinez]

Im 14, im sure thats way toolate to start:/

[Jessicakingxxxx]

@ArianaDotMartinez no its not!!! :)

[Robertking1996]

NO NOT AT ALL!!!!I learned at 12.Just stretch good and you'll do it.

[act4life8]

@ArianaDotMartinez no itss notttttttt ttttrrrruuusssssssst me atleast try.... but you can't give up no matter how hard it is you have to keep going I'm 16 and Im going to start!!!!!!!

[honk4peace89]

@ArianaDotMartinez nah.. im 21 and just started

[Allybabe01]

Its never too late to start. I have only just started this sport and i am 12 and three quarters. :L i am already learning how to tumble

[smartgurl1214]

ok im 12 and i dont even know how to do the splits im signing up for gymnastics and i was wondering if it is to late for yes if u think its not vote no for too late

[Connor199613]

woman voice is annoying lool

[98melz]

i agree ith chevy20ful...she is thinkin shes the "poop" im a gymnast and they never told us to do that too...weirdd

[xomissylovexo]

I agree with MsCubiq

[harajukuhunny]

splits are like...not hard but not so easy lol. It takes determination and drive to not give up when that shit hurts so bad!!

[MsCubiq]

this video doesnt even teach how to do the splits it just shows you how they do it

[O9ashile]

@MsCubiq there IS a part before this but it's not on the title

[brwneydgirl70]

@MsCubiq Well yeah your not going to get it some magical way you have to do what they do until you become flexible enough



[chevy20ful]

Aha. the girl in the pinkk STILL thinks shes the poop, with her hand motions!! Haha!! Wow!! I'mma gymnast and i was neverr taught to do thatt..but to let them know im ready but thats just gayy!! :)

[TheDvxck1]

Im 11 and guess what... i still did the splits even though i weigh 81

[ladybrebre100]

i dont need they help im acheerleadear

[00morganr]

So why are you here ?

Fuck off

[Waterplant007]

do you have to be turned out with gymnastics?

At the end the girl left, turned inside with her forward leg.

It looks painful to me.

[EmoAliKat]

At 0:21 what the hell was that little girl doing with her hands? O_o

[Robertking1996]

Ohhh because usually when you do splits you push your hands against the ground to keep you up,if you do it with your hands off the ground gravity is in total control of your groin and pushes it straight to the ground,and it hurts way more with out your hands.But if you can do them without your hands supporting most gymnasts would call that good. ;))))

[tartaninka]

Poor kids , too young , no choice, and the one on the left can do the splits ok but looks utterly untalented for graceful sports...

[MellowSquash]

the thing that sucks is that girls and guys think its sick if guys can do splits cuz it seems like they dont have balls

[yumiko0017]

im a girl, i don't think its sick for guys to do splits.

[wannahbepreppy22597]

pls help me to get down on my left split pls

[iluvumjj]

Okk whats da point of showing us the spilts or how to if ur little girls r a fantastic flexibl person and can do the slipts ordey and ur not even showing us ur just talking about stuff wicth i wasent listining to but can u tech us cuz i dident get no help wat so eva

[moietmavieana]

you can't really teach splits... Just stretch and you ll see how it gets better and better... It's all about practice...

[moietmavieana]

How did they mark you as spam... I will never know...

[Kimsterxox]

Thanks for saying that! Now I am going to practice and practice and hopefully one day I can do the splits!

[pinkismylife0]

ok lady having two little girls who are already majorly flexable doesnt help at all. i was that flexable when i was their age but now im 13 and i need to learn this again.

[tashadt5]

exactly

[tmvebb]

Ya, im 12, and i was that flexable... wonder what happened lol

[xxsunflowerxx44]

jeez they are quite good for their age but when you can do them they are easy it took me about a month to learn them properly but after tht if you kep doing them its so easy this is kinda a waste of time for beginners.

[kibakid1]

little kids are sooooo flexible

[A301b]

haha u made me laugh

[randyandy2626]

that was rubbish how am i meant to learn from watching little girls who can already do it

[bobbinqueen]

this doesnt help

[millieluvsyouxox]

i swear ur not ment to bounce in a stretch

[soraxtiffany]

holyy freaking coww . *^_^*

i was expecting them to be like 3 inches off the floor in like a seound bam ! there on the ground with a full split my mouth literally dropped thereamazing !

[cheerforever1000]

they are soo good

[MandFriendsShow]

omg they rnt even doind the first stretches right!!!!

[KATEY95228]

that is not for beginers they are already doing the splits it is not even teaching you how to do it

[rozwell69]

@KATEY95228 Exaclty. It's just showing to young gymnastics doing them. Why don't this fat woman do it herself?

It took me over 2 years to do achieve all 3 full splits and it still hurts when I do it (especially with partner over my head). Even kids (without specific predispositions and any stretching before) needs months to reach that level. Of course with intense trainings...

[sisters4ever21]

@KATEY95228 yeah i know i tried but i jsut fell over and fell on my cat

[JrMidget0912]

It's actually used more then you think. Just to do a backhandspring you need shoulder and back flexibility.

[gymshiv]

this was pretty shit, and flexibility isnt used atall in tumbling...

[kobedabest4]

lamee.

[xjackinthebox]

yeah don't mind me. I'm just the bad guy because I disagree to the idea that a certain hair color will make you better at things. What a scoundrel I am...

[neokid15]

yesh but yet every redhead iv meet had the same snoby actions and wut not lmao

[Kylefan12341]

helptheASPCA:

Hell yea!! dont mind xjackinthebox theyre just trying to start stuff to get attention, we know the truth so what she says dont matter (:

[TheBigBossNinja]

you pwned that silly blonde :)

[lojo1217]

HUNTING HIGH AND LOW: wth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[sassygirly223]

how do ppl do this without SCREAMING

[SoulxSpectre]

Slowly (:

[Showgirl220]

0:29-0:32 look at the blonds back leg its kinda crooked

[helptheASPCA]

hah good one

[NamiNabou]

the girl in the blue is so cute

[KandyWinder]

OMG! i almost did a split with those stretches. By the end of the summer i'll be able to do a split!!!

[ilovemetamera]

was it your first time trying?

[roseylove28]

awesome! I just thought the streatches were gonna be more advanced than that!

[roseylove28]

u shouldn't believe in it even if ur a critian, some false religions teaches that ppl go to hell when really they dont, they just die and thats the end of it! ppl dont go to hell when they do something wrong they still have chances to fix things!

[BirdiexBirdie]

AHHH! BALLISTIC STRETCHING!! soooooo bad so bad! someones going to tear something in the future!! learn some static or P&F stretching please! THINK OF THE CHIlDREN!

[kittycatsrule86]

how can those girls stretch so badly and still have the splits?

[cutiepieice36]

ur rite how do they do that?? :)

[dhogan47]

we do the same stretches in taekwondo, and now i can do a full split on the left

[Kylefan12341]

Wow. I don't care.

[sp0i1edbrat]

¤ø„¸¸„ø¤º°¨¸„ø¤º°¨ post to 3 other vids

[Racheltone]

splits are easy

[popcorn324]

WTF that makes no sense

[sweettartzrock]

Sweetie....listen okay? Blond is a hair color and just because your family is coincidently like that doesn't mean it applies to the whole world.

[RockxAngelxDayna]

I find that insulting and not im not trying to be mean or anything but im black-dark brown and im quite good at every sport except for shot-put and some other sports i havent tried yet so there

example give :P

[Kylefan12341]

Ok good for you, all I'm saying is most blondes I know are better at everything....

[TheBigBossNinja]

funny that there is blonde jokes and the frequently used DUMB BLONDE and btw xjackinthebox PWNED you...

[Kylefan12341]

great 4 u i dont give a rats ass

[TheBigBossNinja]

shut up blonde

[starmiestar]

lol

of course!

they know how to do spilts so they taught it is simple

[wetos]

they dont even show the splits proppaly they already know and how can it be begginers omg !

[StrGrlOllie]

i miss when i was younger

[kokopuff1014]

yeaht eh blonde girl thinks ur better than the other girl

[cutehollz]

yeaht eh blonde girl thinks ur better than the other girl

[iloveJOEJONAS333333]

Bad.... video.

[iloveja2]

gymnastics takes confidence and that is what the blonde is showing and she knows what shes doing

[ashleyraebbg]

I agree about the blonde girl

[rainandjellyfish]

so all u do is bend a leg then slowly realease the other 1? the blonde girl thinks shes alll that.

[TYPHOORO]

do you hear the way she says legs? she says it funny.

anyway, i dont like that blonde girl...lol

[wetos]

gratveregodhahahaitisnogod

[junerosie321]

wow... lol

[SanahHayame]

i thought bouncing was bad for your stretchesss
