Title: Can you do the splits?
Post by: dreamyxo on August 06, 2013, 08:47:31 pm: I was watching some Youtube videos and one had instructions on how to do a split. I guess that's kind of on my bucket list. I can't do it (yet) but I want to learn.

I am way past doing the splits. I tried to learn how to do that in Junior High and failed. I could never get al the way to the floor and gave up. I decided I would never be that limber. Now that I am in my 50s ther is now way! I have trouble doing a sit-up with this bellican!

I cannot anymore.....

Post by: masked_brown_guy on August 08, 2013, 04:55:25 pm: no and I am not very interested in doing the splits. learning how to do them sounds like a painful experience.
