What is it like when you get flexible enough to do the splits?

[Bluethinker456]

How did you get flexible enough so you can do the splits? Also, if you can do it, do you show it off to other people?

[msmissydc]

I rarely show people. It isn't a thing you would just show people in public. If someone I know doesn't believe me or so yes I do sometimes show them but it comes up rarely, so not a usual situation.
How you can do it? Not sure I allways could do it. I would guess daylie stretches and keep trying it, is the way to go. Nothing that works from one day to the other.

[Bluethinker456]

You can do the splits without having stretched or practiced any sports? That seems nice

[msmissydc]

Oh no sorry forgot to answer that part. I did ballet as a child and allways did some sort of dancing. Thats how I learned and never unlearned it.

[Bluethinker456]

No worries. Are you still in dancing?

[msmissydc]

Yes I have a group I do all kind of dance styles with. Not much partner dance though and during pandemic we mostly focused on one kind of dance.

[throwaway2768]

I'm not as flexible as I used to be, but I'm a dancer on college dance/cheer team and still pretty flexible and I have them (mostly) all the way down still. the way you get them is PRACTICE practice practice, years of dance & training. I dont really show it off to people except guys I date/make out with usually know I am flexible and they seem to like to play around with that idea

[Bluethinker456]

When you do the splits to the guy you're dating/making out with, it's him who ask you to do it, or you do it by your own initiative?

[throwaway2768]

the guy usually comments on how flexible I am and then I just kind of show him , I dont initiate it

[Bluethinker456]

@throwaway2768 But how does he know you're flexible? And you feel good doing the splits to him?

[MORPHEUS_12]

That is exactly how I got diagnosed with a rare connective tissue disease called Ehlers Danlos Syndrome.

[Smashingdoozy]

Do stretches every single day. You also have to keep doing them often to keep the skill. I don't really show people often. Maybe when I'm drunk

[Bluethinker456]

Do you have any sports background that got you into doing the splits, or did you learn by yourself?

[Smashingdoozy]

I did gymnastics for a while. And had some flexibility from horse riding

[Bluethinker456]

I was not aware that horse riding improves flexibility, does it require to be flexible to do horse riding?

[Smashingdoozy]

Think about how wide a horse is and how you sit on a horse.

(I did horse riding age 5-12)

[Still-alive]

will have to get your drunk sometime then lol

[Bluethinker456]

Yeah it makes sense, I was just not aware that horses were wide enough that it requires the horse rider to be so flexible.

I was a cheerleader and used to be able to do all kinds of splits very easily. Afte high school I basically never bothered to stretch even after a workout. I can no longer do the splits lol but usually it takes me a two weeks maximum of daily stretching (after a workout) to get my single splits back.

[Nikki1989]

I learned how to do it from doing gymnastics in school.

[Bluethinker456]

Do you still do the splits?

[Nikki1989]

Sometimes

[Bluethinker456]

That's nice that you can keep your flexibility from gymnastics, do you like to show it off to other people?

[nolabels]

Boy, this question has triggered my base animality!

I'd better leave this question lie unanswered.

Cheers!

I was born with hypermobility and I've always been able to do splits. The downside is that I was delayed in hitting childhood milestones like walking, jumping, and running. And even with physio that lasted for years until I caught up. I started taekwondo at about age 7 partially because I thought it was cool, and partially because my parents thought it would be good for me and help that catchup.

Do I show it off to people? Not in public. There's very little reason to!

[Daniela1982]

Last time I did the splits I stuck to the floor.

[Red_Arrow]

Suction.

[Daniela1982]

@Red_Arrow No, but imagine someone throwing their panties against the wall and they stick. I know that vision would burn your retinas.

[Red_Arrow]

Much worse than throwing spaghetti against the wall to see if it is ready.
But wearing panties might break the suction between you and the floor. :-)

[peedy]

Why would a guy ever want to do the splits

[Bluethinker456]

Some guys have to practice their flexibility because of the sports that they practice. As for wanting to do the splits just for fun, I think guys are not really into that as girls, but maybe there are some guys doing it.

[In_Trance]

fuck around and find out

[josephinelcajon]

No way!
