Gymnastics Warm Ups : Middle Splits for Gymnastics Warm Ups

[xloPABLOolx]

i am a supermodel and i am 18.

my agent tells me that i cannot be too flexible. however, my coach does tell me to be really flexible. what should i do?

[pheargynt]

@xloPABLOolx they probablly meant you gotta be flexible with your mind

[mreisma]

omg

[Gymnastgirlll]

I personally think the right and left hurt more than the middle, lol. Im like 1 inch from the ground in my middle! and about 2 inches in my right and left (:

[biggmc100]

why does the middle hurt more than the other splits?



[sjmmrcrdd]

a true pro!!! keep it up!

[NytaSmileeex3]

I have my right split now perfectly :*

[sabbysky]

I was able to do this after stretching 2 times a week at my taekwondo practice for aobut 2 years

[HaileyProductionns]

@wuu1 not necessarily true

[sevenfyegymnast]

when i tried to do split i almost broke my leg

[GracefulGymnastics]

@sevenfyegymnast HOW!? 

[wluu1]

Well in order to do the middle splits , you have to master both your right and left splits. =D

[SoForevrrCheer]

i have perfect right/left splits but a halfway perfect middle(:

[LauraaaKelly]

omg, your knees! do not roll your knees!

[Huskypuppieluver]

@LauraaaKelly If its a regular middle split you can. But if its a Chinese split you don't.

[95Someone95]

U're awesome!

[Kelsey23451]

Thnx u help me alot

[CheekyMonkey323]

[booBOOlaface]

danngg you have some long legs, or maybe everyones look long in the middle splits?

[BaldChicken15]

is it weird if a 14 year old boy can do the splits?

[randomriley8]

@BaldChicken15 No, anybody can do the splits if they put there minds to it:)

[GamersCanGame]

@BaldChicken15 not rly

[VeradoonKing]

@BaldChicken15

it's actually not weird for guys to do splits; since it's been a month i hope you're progressing nicely with the splits. Just saying all the guys from my kung fu class are really flexible and they're around your age.

[BaldChicken15]

@VeradoonKing thanks for the reply cause most people i know cant do it so i felt awkward.

[toocoolforu]

It hurts just watching it! (i'm a guy)

[blondegirlnicole]

hey i'm 17 year old gymnast and i just got 1 question: are you meant to wear underwear under leotards? cause i went 2 gymnastics camp last summer and all the gurls i stayed with wore underwear.they thought it was wierd not to wear underwear under the leotard.i mean do u wear them under ur leotard and is there a special type of underwear and where can u buy them? also is it a good idea to wear a bra and briefs under leotards or not?

[katharina435]

@blondegirlnicole you wear special underwear under leotards ;) and i wear a bra and a brief under my leotard :) and just look on the internet and order them... or look in a gynastic or sport shop :)

[blondegirlnicole]

@katharina435 ok what about piercings? cause i have my nose, belly button, ears,hips and my bust pierced cause i'm a part time model but are u allowed to have them in gymnastics? IT'S HArd cause my agency tells me to get them done but my coach gets so angry :(...

[MultiRedhearts]

Do u know how long will it take 4 a normal person to get a full split ??

[PLCGirl101]

yay i can do this im double jointed yay!

[BriannaProductionssz]

im halfway with my middle split but i have a perfect right splitt :*

[phoebemakelax]

[Ian2lo4u2c]

@BBoyVivo

Hey bro.....you're bragging about doing better splits than a young lady.....

I bet she has more balls than you though....

[BBoyVivo]

@Ian2lo4u2c y r u talkin about balls dude and im a bboy a trickster and a gymnast so ok dont really care if people talk crap i mean epic hong10 and hella other people can do the splits and there bamfs so k watever u say bro

[Ian2lo4u2c]

@BBoyVivo

alright alright....I checked out ur chan......pretty cool.....

I see how you are comparable to a lil girl... but still, hate less....lets talk each other UP, instead of down.,....unless deserved! Kapish?

[BBoyVivo]

@Ian2lo4u2c finally some1 who has the balls to tell me off so i understand and ill respect that ;)

[IAMNOTASINGER]

I guess you could say i'm pretty close to the middle splits but that really helped alot!!! :)

[daoquynh29]

[RoxyheartRyanskate]

You're really good! :D

[mzxxxjaguarxxx]

im very flexible and can still do it better

[katerin0oli]

@mzxxxjaguarxxx eisai ligo psonara

[makYOUsuffer]

i love jailbait..

[believeinmagic01]

wish i could do this.... is 18 going on 19 too old to start at leas with the basics of gymnastic?

[fateindustry]

@believeinmagic01 Just start...But if you start, you cannot give up.

[tyciol]

Interesting data about the middle hip flexors

[kelloggcerealxoxo]

jailbait live :)

[Laniececarter]

it works

[hutchcat123]

oh good

[hutchcat123]

does anyone know if you dont do ir for a few days would that mean it will go back to normal(please say no)

[Blissi18]

@hutchcat123 , maybe not to normal, but it will reduce the stretch range a bit. It's like eating, if you want to keep your stomach full, you should eat everyday, if not... well, you know what happens... (bit of bad example, but you get the idea,)

[giolk28]

no but what do you mean "a few days"? after 10 days you'll be totally out of practice so yes, you'll be almost back to normal. after 3 days no, you'll still be ok.

[bambutt123]

i can do that btr lol.... not to brag but i can do that with my arms in the air and then i lift up out of my body and balance on my toes

[SAMIERA27]

wat eva

[wAiTing4u1136]

this worked amazin on me !!!

[webkinzlover528]

Wow you are very flexible thank you for putting this video so it can help me (:

[XxXkellyXxX16]

[daisycake96]

[Bunnyboops1]

[Dimplez2Fly]

[liilraiinbowzz]

[isaloveswes]

[SuperAriana123]

[blearghp]

...i felt left out that this is for gymnastics...oh well...it helped me get back the split i need for martial arts though....maybe i should take up gymnastics...is 18 being too old or is it alright to take up gymnastics now?

[jeffhardysbabe123]

18 is not too old for gymnastics. Just call and they will tell you.

[blearghp]

[luvahuggagym]

[3victomsofOJD]

You are asome.

[coelhovsk]

Excellent teacher!!!

[butterfly67988]

Io non so ancora fare la spaccata. Sto guardando quesi video per provare a imparare.

Se qualcuno vuole insegnarmi risponda al commento

[NatalielovesNYC]

ok, so i haven't done a split for like 4 years. my muscels have already stiffened. wont it tear?

[lyricsprincess4eva]

I'm idk but maybe i'm the same but it wont tear :)

[fernanda8629]

si you nex day*

[luvahuggagym]

ok robot

[IsabelBarrett40]

lolwutt?

[nchq]

conne

[aimcat72]

i can do all of the splits sept middle :s i can nearly do it thoo

[iRawRandom]

eeeww.this video makes me quiver :L

[jilliannoel135]

okay, what if we can't strech our legs 180 degrees? hahahaha. i need a video to help me get a split!

[abrcrmbluv]

to stelize: it is most likely due to torn muscle fibers. if u have been doing it alot and it hurts u are working your muscles past their flexibility point and therefore have torn your muscle fibers. it will heal soon and you can continue. no biggie! :)

[LamiaAlEisa]

same happens for me!! i have to get my splits fast! but everytime i get down i get back up and my miscles ache so bad!!

plz give me a solution that can help me get my splits but no tearing anything!!

Thnks in advance (:

[crazyguhz]

i can do that :)

[blueberrywaffels7]

E-Z

[Stelize034]

I kept doing front splits then my leg keeps hurting when I move it. Does anyone know what happend!

[VraiCrystal]

Overstretch, unproper warm-up, lack of strenght (most people don't know that flexibility must be balanced with strenght to avoid injuries), muscle tear... could be a lot of things.

[teen13queen]

you pulled a muscle by stretching to hard. you should calm down the stretching for a little bit. NEVER stretch too far when the pain is unbearable.

[MrHunglikeahorse]

I know what you mean...

I always pull a muscle while watching videos on the internet.

XD ........???

[SBFFOREVER1]

you probobly just over streched it its ok it will go away in a few weeks your muscles just have to get used to it

[MiaJilly]

I LOVE YOU!!!

[thesillyily777]

i used to know how to do a perfect split when i was like 6 or 7 years old

knowing how to do a split used to be in at my school-u kno like everyone had to know how to do a split to be "cool"

[curidance]

[gwenmontero]

[pointlover08]

Louisax91: the front split is called a split...left or right

[dooup]

OMG ... this so impressive is like walking on water ... you see these things on tv but when you see someone with "normal" clothes in a "normal" enviroment doing some thing like that ... Sorry just couldn't keep a traight face as if she was cutting her self in two as I watched. wow!

[Louisax91]

whats the move called where you split your legs making them go from in front to behind you?

[ilovelibertyTYC]

A pull through. I think it is called that because it is best when you have someone pull you through.

[UMemberMe64]

Wow, she is a really great teacher. She's so thorough!

[BarackObamaSUX]

wow.....hard, very hard...practico necesario!!!

[KaRmAnElLs]

oh my god thanks now i wilil be able to do the splits in my solo!!:P
